I woke up in the morning and something did not know right in my mouth, i thought that I spent the night grinding my teeth, but sometimes I do that when I have nervousness or anxiety… The whole side of my face hurt and I had a little bit of an earache. I decided to take a couple of Tylenol before I went to work! My mouth started to know better and I forgot about the toothache until after dinner. I was eating some fried chicken and I felt an ache in my tooth… When I drank some Tim Hortons Latte pop, the ache in my tooth was even worse. I knew at that moment that the problem was never grinding my teeth. I honestly had a cavity. I had to make an appointment with the dentist office near me. There are lots of dental offices near me, but there are only a couple of venues that take my insurance. I already have a family dentistry practice that I regularly use. I called the receptionist and made an appointment. When I told her that I was experiencing pain and difficulty eating, she gave myself and others the earliest appointment which was the next morning at 2:00 p.m. She also told myself and others to call if I was in awful pain, because she could supply myself and others the name of an emergency dental office in the nearby city. They did not take insurance, but in an emergency, they would be able to help out. I was able to wait until the next morning at 2:00 p.m. when I found out that I had a serious cavity that needed to be drilled and filled.
