Root Canal Theatrical

Enthusiastically, my diagnosis was gingivitis
Supplemented myself with vitamins the mess food deprived me of
The throbbing pain and redness only increased to my dismay
Consoled that after next day’s dental appointment I’d be gay

An abscess it was which had to be drained at the earliest
The adjacent teeth roots were involved too, pus being the pest
Not even in my eyes did he see
With no sympathy he said 3 teeth needed R.C.T.!

Terrorized I was, "Nightmare it is going to be!
A good girl I am, what wrong have I done to offend Thee?"
No pain killers prescribed, I was in pain and mute
A bad day happening, the PG wasn’t even cute

Losing faith in corporate hospitals,
Sometimes I doubt all the nobility associated with doctors
Charging 80 bucks for a pair of gloves is phony
Yes it is important to me, but I didn’t think it’s all about making money

The private dentist was going to extort a heavy price
But a single tooth Root Canal Treatment would suffice
Still I was full of fear, hopelessness and disdain
RCT agony is considered most intense, next only to labour pain!

Embarrassed, I closed my watering eyes as I got pricked all over
All alone I screamed and I needed my mommy
With nobody to hold my hand, I endured
Almost nearing my final sitting, an all-ceramic prosthesis is being made

Of all, the front incisor had to get a smash
I shall remember to hesitate every time a smile I’d flash
It seems the nice set used to make quite an impact,
Nobody ever complimented when they were intact.

    hi, this is interesting , and thanks for creating an awareness among the dental community that how much cruelty the patinets are undergoing by the rct procedures.Actually the rct procedures are more painful in the past years, but now the procedures are improved even we can avoid the pain completely by proper preop preparation, i wonder why the dentist is not prescribing NSAID'S and not using LA.I apolozise u onbehalf of the dental community for the sufferings u had, this will also create awareness among the common people to take care of their teeth in order to avoid the painful procedures[atleast the fear can drive the people to take care of their teeth] and the dentist should follow the ethics during dental procedures by avoiding the iatrogenic pain due to the procedures and as well as making the patients comfortable without pain.Finally the labor pain we cant avoid but the RCT pain we can avoid by having proper knowledge [by dentist] and awareness[by the patient].Good work.

    private practitioners have a right to charge heavily...
    they've invested so much, in the corporate places its some other guy with big bucks who's put the money....
