Yikes! That hurt! Did a big jump today on my snowboard. Fault was that I didn’t check the ramp first and just hit it full speed, presuming it was still the same angle as the day before. I was wrong…

Tricky thing was that I have never used a helmet before and this was actually the first time I used my new helmet. Thanks Casco for saving my head! (Can I now get a new helmet from you guys? 
)
After my root canal treatment I went home with a pretty good feeling. The pain was gone and in a matter of weeks it would all be finished when the filled up the hole in my tooth…
How different the last days have been. Last Thursday I’ve got the treatment and on Friday afternoon I started to feel my heartbeat in my tooth. Saturday morning I was in real pain again and my tooth was banging all the time. On Sunday I didn’t know what to do anymore because of the pain and called the weekend dentist.
It appeared that my tooth has filled up with fluid from the inflamation and put pressure on the tooth from the inside. So after opening up and cleaning the whole tooth from the inside again, I could smile again.
Went home and the rest of the Sunday was perfect again. Monday was also pretty okay, but my tooth started banging again. On on Monday evening the pain went from light to heavy within an hour. Again a visit to the evening dentist, but this time the story was worse.
The dentist was drilling in my inflamed tooth and cleaning it for about 45 minutes, which was pretty doable. But right afterwards, it was coming in strong! Pain, pain, pain in my whole jaw! The dentist told me to get antibiotics immediately at the hospital and start right away.
In the 30 minute ride to home I was literally screaming it out from the pain! At home I was jumping in the shower for 5 minutes, lying on bed for 5 minutes and baning my head against the door for 5 minutes, and repeated that schedule for around 3 hours.
After some antibiotics, sleeping pills and asperine I was still wide awake and didn’t know what to do. Okay, time for drastic measures… Alcohol!
After two shots of Amaretto d’Issarono I didn’t remember putting away my glass and woke up the next day without any pains…
This morning I woke up from a terrible pain in my tooth. After an hour of trying to forget the pain I gave up and called the dentist. One hour later I was in his chair and he confirmed my fear of a big inflamed tooth. Time for a root canal treatment…
Well, as I’ve heard enough (terrible) stories about this treatment, I wasn’t too pleased with it. Especially because it was already inflamed and pain killers wouldn’t help. Nice. But to be honest, it wasn’t that bad and the pain wasn’t worse then a normal drilling session with the dentist.
After I came home I wondered what the dentist did to my tooth and looked it up on Youtube. To be honest, I didn’t expect it to be such heavy work. Looks pretty intense to me! Glad I didn’t know it beforehand! I’m already looking forward to my next appointment where they will finish the job! brrr…
