slow day, dentistry-wise
Not much happened today - no root canal, no oral surgery, but no pain, either. Been taking antibiotics for the past 4-5 days and it seems like they've kicked in. They fight the bacteria that produce the fluid, which builds up, which produces pressure, and thus pain, in my jawbone. Fewer bacteria, less pain. So I called the doc, and communicating via passing messages through the receptionist, was told to "keep on the antibiotics, call back tomorrow, and when we see how things are tomorrow, we'll schedule the root canal then." Okeedoke, then. Until tomorrow.

that Jack built.
So how long will the root canal keep you semi-incapacitated at home?
Not likely long at all. Nerve is dead anyway... it's just a question of a post-therapy (they call it "root canal therapy") filling or crown, or whatever.
