Question Who wins: "The Dentist", or "The Dive Shop"?
Today I am at home, instead of working, crying into a glass of Jack Daniels.

I was at work having lunch (a pie and chips), when whammooo: my back tooth decided to cave in and leave a raw exposed nerve.

Know for the last month I have been saving for a new dive computer as I know that mine is no longer that trustworthy (I now do manual dive profiles and have fitted all my manual guages back on).

So what do you do knowing that you are only 3 days away from having enough cash to buy the new comp or spend it on the "Censured" Dentist and suck the pain in.....

Steve

Steve,

Your other option was to use Oil of Cloves which should numb the nerve and cease the pain in any exposed tooth nerve. Hope you get it sorted mate.

Dental pain is like no other pain on earth.

Perhaps you could get a part time job to fund your diving habit. Failing that Ebay could be your friend...

No, good call in my book. Nothing, even diving, is a pleasure with nagging dental pain like that.

The computer will still be there to buy when you've saved up enough again.

You won't be able to go diving with half a tooth like that!

Sad to say it must be the dentist first!

The smilie is because you have to go and I don't!

Hmm. Let's see now. Nice cold air from your regulator passing over your b*ggered tooth? I think that it'll have to be the dentist first I'm afraid. Otherwise we'll be able to hear your screaming over here

I had the same thing earlier this year. I hadn't been to the dentist in 15yrs and apart from the broken tooth the only treatment I needed was to have an old mercury filling replaced with a white one. Never had any trouble with my teeth but now they hurt like buggery whenever I eat anything cold, they throb after alcohol (not good for someone like me) and had a miserable week in Scapa feeling like someone was hitting me across the head with a 2x4 every time I did an ascent/descent. And it cost me 500quid for the pleasure of getting my mouth knackered.

Not impressed with dentists, they have you over a barrel, there's no way out. My ex was a dentist so I may be biased.
