Surgery Today

So I had my #9 Incisor removed. (Front left tooth). And I'm in pain, but no idea how much I'm really in since I am on pills I had what was called an inner root resorption (resorbtion) which mean my root was eating itself away from the inside. So you have 3 choice on what to do with it.

1. let it rot and fall out (problem could cause bone problems)
2. Use a bridge, but then you have to mess with your teeth on both sides.
3. Get an implant. Where they remove the tooth, pull the remaining root out since it isn't attached to the crown anymore (cause of the resorbtion), and then screw a post in that will later have the tooth put onto it.)

So I chose #3 since I'm still pretty young and I wanted a good solution. Now I have to wear a flipper that is basically an artificial tooth on a retainer. It actually doen't look tht bad. Biggest problem $3k.
