who ever thought this procedure up had a beautiful mind...tiny little drills to excavate....syringes with long needles to irrigate and all the while you are grinning like a cheshire cat with the help of a dental dam...something I'd heretofore only heard about in the context of safe sex....don't even ask me about the part where they cauterize these tiny rubber shoots-all natural, the endo assistant assured me-so that they melt into your tooth's root...
if there is any doubt in your minds, let me still it. god does have a sense of humor...Picture this: Me reclining in the chair, the endo man screwing these miniscule probes in and out of the roots of my tooth, with the help of this cool little telescopic or are they microscoptic attachments to his glasses, looking for all the world like the main guy in CSI...what is his name? and oldies 103 as the sound track. The Beach Boys start singing, "good, good, good, good vibrations.." as the excavating drill drones. My endo man and his assisant are singing along. I had to smile. I had to smile.

Glad the procedure wasn't too painful!
