Root canal infection... Again

Previously, I have been affected by some nerve pain due to another tooth. Pls refer to this post.. painful-root-canal-and-then-extraction. I've been in much pain recently because of this molar tooth. Comtemplating to pluck out all my molar teeth to do braces since each implant cost me $4500. Each set of Root canal treatments  and crown cost me $1.5k Considering that I have done uncountable fillings,5 root canals, 4 crowns, 1 implants, can you image how much I have spent on my teeth?!

Please teach your children to brush teeth and give them a decent set of SOFT toothbrush and toothpaste because when I was young, we were too poor to afford that on a constant basis. The toothbrushes at 20cents always scrub against your gums till  they bleed..

When my father wanted us to go bed, it meant straightaway, on the dot lights out at 8pm and no T.V., no going to toilet, no brushing teeth. All my molar teeth had cavities by 12 years old. When I was 8 years old, I discovered my older brother had a whole set of clean straight white teeth where previously they were all sharp and rotten. He told me that each person could have 2 set of teeth; if they dropped together, they will grow out together.

Thus, I thought I should just let all rot together and a whole new set would grow in their place. Just throw your teeth under your bed and pray for the tooth fairy to grant you a cute little tooth. Little did I know that the molar and premolar teeth are permanent adult teeth and not milk teeth at all... The dreams of a child!

Now, no matter how much dental care we get, there's no road to return.
