Meanwhile, back in the land of When it Rains it Pours, now it looks like my Twist won't charge. Shall I pull my hair out now or wait til later? :blink:

Uh...?Wait 'till later?

OK, Seriously, what happens when you plug it in? Did you try another known working outlet? How do you know it needs charging?

So, I'm a teensy bit late...but I have crowns on two teeth, and no root canals. Although I had surgery to help rebuild the bone under the second one, the first was due to a broken tooth and the second because there wasn't enough tooth left to repair a failing filling. The roots of the teeth themselves were fine.

(i hope posting this doesn't jinx the crown that is about 6 years old)

Yeah, but if the root is exposed or dying, it has to go, right? (she said it needed a RC, and then said she wanted to skip that.)

I don't know the answer to that question Tibs. She did say that the tooth an still be saved...
I have a tooth on the opposite side of my mouth that is in the same shape. Needs a root canal, and a crown. If it's just going to break off at some point anyway, I'm thinking I may as well forego the root canal.

Unless she means..."just pull it and put in a peg and fake tooth". So yeah.

well - lost has to be more exact ;) atm as i understand it half of the tooth fell off where a root canal had been started but not finished ................ not sure how that can be but if it's true that tooth might be very vulnerable. she also has a tooth on the other side in need of a root canal and possible crown - nowadays that translates to big bucks

as far as the twist - try a different charger ;)

and heading toward geoff ................ with cookies!

Anyway Lost. My GF has had them pull it, put a peg in, then build a fake tooth around the peg.
I suppose that's what you really meant.

They can probably do all sorts of stuff....RC then crown, pull/peg/build, just pull, denture (bad idea usually).

If I were you I'd ask for list of options, pros and cons, and costs.

I want cookies! but i still have some yummy chocolate that I've been savoring slowly :)

+1 on trying a different charger.

I don't know a full crown from a half crown, Atty, but my whole tooth (teeth, since n=2?) is/are covered.

New job is, at least initially, the same as the old job, just in a different department. Research will be the same, with a slightly different teaching load.


+1 on options, proc, cons and most especially costs.

Well when I used it earlier today, it didn't seem to be hitting like it usually does when it's charged well. So I plugged it in to the charger and the light has not changed to green after about 3 hours now. It's plugged in to a power strip, which my laptop is also plugged into and fully charged, so that's not the problem. Plus, I have my pass through plugged into the same power strip and it is working fine.

I found a recipe for Geoff's Tangerine Chicken. Really. Was super spicy though...and way off his usual diet. ;)
