later. It got so bad that pain medication wouldn't help and finally after weeks of on and off suffering all I could do was walk in circles to distract me from the agony. I finally got up the courage to beg a family friend to help me out and he was kind enough to open up his office on christmas day and do a partial root canal for me to get me out of pain. Never been so thankful for someone's kindness. 10/10 wouldn't recommend. Later had a 3 hour root canal (longest 3 hours of my life) to save the tooth (it has super curved roots) and then a crown on top of that. Just because I didn't get the tooth treated earlier.
