To see your experience since 2006 I would agree that it is time to stop this bugger in its tracks! I would personally go the same route under the circumstances. With the technology of today, great choice and best wishes. Prayers, Mickey

Hi Tatianne,

Best wishes for your procedure on Monday. I have been through dentistry that was worse than having radiation treatment, so don't worry too much. The day will be over and you will be safe at home before you know it. See you as a postie!
