Thanks. AHARLEYGYRL, wish I was closer to the office, but am located in north Dallas Tx. These tooth pains are sending frequent shooting pains upwards through my skull. It is unbelieveable who painful a damaged tooth can be. I mean how the heck does it shoot sharp through the skull? I never get headaches, and as soon as i get a sharp pain in my tooth, a second later comes the radiating sharp burning dager type pain in my skull. JEEZ, God have mercy! This is the first time in my life I dont have dental coverage, but I gotta get it done. Funny how things go wrong at the wrong times, never had any issues with my teeth before. Arrrrgggghhh.
