cadaver bone

The dental surgery did not go well...or it did go well depending on how you want to look at it. Once the surgeon was inside he realized that the tooth was cracked all the way down the root. This meant that the surgery had to stop and become an extraction instead. Because the infection has been going on for some time the bone around the tooth was compromised. Through it all the surgeon filled it up with cadaver bone so in a couple of months I can get a tooth implant. Oh...fun....but at lest now i can start to heal.
