Extraction!

My visit to see about the date of my dental cap was yesterday and the results were dramatic.

It turns out, in addition to fitting poorly the whole time it was in my mouth and spending the last three weeks wiggling about, the metallic jerk also fractured the remaining root in such a way that the only option was complete extraction.

The amazing thing was that the whole process took less than an hour and my doctor even sent me home with pain medication all for the low low price of just over 2000 yen.

Being a few days from payday, I've never been more elated to have medical issues here instead of in my homeland.
