And stubborn old gold alloy dental crowns. After the slide hammer
failed she went in with a chop saw. Two hours I'll never forget. She
gave me the remains which otherwise would have gone out with the used
sharps. It had been center drilled for a root canal and might make a
grotesque Goth/vampire necklace were I so inclined.


In June I made -one- appointment for the whole month of July. Guess
when the dentist has to install the new crown.

Thanks to the root canal the tooth had no feeling. The worst pain was
in my butt, specifically the wallet area.

The old crown might make a good lid for a poison ring. I could mold
the roots to grow around my finger.- Hide quoted text -

The ring sounds a bit gruesome, but maybe you'll start a new trend in
body art. g
