I have to go in for a root canal this morning. I have already had one
in this tooth, but the dentist that performed it left a piece of
instrument used to clean the roots out in one of the canals. Now it is
infected inside and I have lost some bone. If this endontist is unable
to get this piece of instrument out, then I will lose my tooth. It is
an important tooth, the second molar back on the bottom.



Anyway, I am surprisingly calm now, but I know I am going to become very paniced and anxiety ridden soon.
