Extraction

 I'm supposed to get a molar extracted in ten days. There's a cavity under my crown. No idea how it got there. I brush every day with Crest Detoxify. I floss, jab ib the pic, wash with anti-cavity liquid. I swish pre-brush stuff that's supposed to loosen plaque. How coulld this happen?

People tell me you don't need your molars. I beg to differ. Why would they be there unless they helped chew? I am afraid I'll sneeze or cough or gag during the procedure. Fifteen years ago I had one extracted using just Novocaine. I got through it.

At some point I'll need dentures. Soak them at night. Feel really old. I want to chew like normal people.
