I did, in Seattle, and he told me even what he did would maybe not last, and it didn't. It needs an implant, pure and simple, and below-the-gumline infections will not stop until he "stumps it up", so to speak.
Some people like shitting in their own toilet, my mouth (teeth specifically) is a fuck job so I like my own dentist - simply seeing the guy in Seattle was a big stretch with problems like mine.
But you are certainly correct - debilitating is the word for the problems my teeth caused.
But goddamn, American painkillers vs Aussie lollies is the best way to put it.
For someone who does not like painkillers at the best of times, WOW !! They were as much of a trip as the pain ;-)
I feel like an addict coming down still.
