At the Dentist's

Dentist: What's wrong, David?

Patient: Ihave a toothache. It's a lower tooth on the right.

D.: Is there a cavity?

P.: I don't think so. It is sensitive to heat and cold; besides I can t sleep at night.

D.: Let me have a look at it. There is a filling here, but I am afraid it has got loose. When did the ache appear?

P.: Two weeks ago.

D.: You should have come for a checkup long ago. You'd better have it X-rayed.

(The dentist has the tooth X-rayed and then examines the picture).

D.: I am afraid I'll have to fill the root canal.

P.: Is it possible to restore the tooth?

D.: Yes, I'll clean the root canal and put a temporary filling because the inflammatory process has spread on the surrounding tissues. You'll come to me again tomorrow.
