To Root Canal – or to Extract – that is the question

A challenge to my loving brother, Dan...

Shakespeare anyone?

  1. Find yourself a good gondolier, and go by canal.

  2. Whether tis nobler in the mouth to suffer
    the syringes and drills of dentist’s fortune,
    or to take arms against rotting teeth
    and by yanking remove them. To gas, to sleep

    Well, you ain’t gonna get that at the dentist’s office. Why do you think they became dentists in the first place? Legible handwriting?

  5. Maintaining one’s teeth has always been a challenge for conservatives.

    Why not extract, Eno, and bare your politics every time you smile.

  7. The root canal is epehmerial.
    The crown collapses, and the center cannot hold.
    Mere pain is again loosed on the world.

    Remove them when ye may, and pay the price,
    or pay twice the price twice, and lose it eventually anyway,
    with more pain, and half the time it only lasts two weeks!

    With apologies to all the poets I’ve robbed, but I did that thing, and would have been better off having them taken out in the first place.

    You know that when the crown falls off after a week, they charge you again to fix it. And again in six months, and at two years…..

    Root Canals are a fraud on the people, and should be avoided at all cost.

  8. Shall I compare thee to a dentist’s drill?
    Thou art more whiny and my nerves you grate:
    Rough tools do scrape and macerate my grill,
    And balance due hath all too short a date:
    Sometime too much the hapless patient cries,
    And oft’ is his red embouchement rins’d;
    And every tooth from youth may face demise,
    By fist or dentist, be thou convinc’d:
    But thy eternal Whining shall not fade
    Nor lose possession of that bill thou owest;
    Nor shall Dentist mark thy statement fully paid,
    When an eternal debt to him thou knowest:

    So long as script is sent to pharmacy,
    Thou shalt, with luck, score some Tylenol Three.

  9. When you leave the tooth in place by getting the root canal, it keeps the bone that supports the teeth stronger. This is a good thing.
