It must have been a seed - they’ll get you everytime– sometimes. There I am minding my business after getting home from the office, letting my brain decompress after a long day of solving problems and making plans, eating — wait for it — a sandwich, and — crack — the pain was almost instant. Not throbbing, not mind-numbingly shocking - just a dry, dull reminder that I’ll be spending most of my morning tomorrow waiting in a room for emergency dental work, wishing more than anything that I was at the office instead, or here in bed, and getting increasingly angrier at that damn soft music, that damn light in my face and that damn panicking sensation that I’m stuck in a chair at the whim of some wacko with a better smile than most models - a testament to his life-long dedication to be his own walking, talking, smiling business card.
Prepping more posts. Listening to Josh Ritter. Blaming my mother for giving me crap teeth which seem to give up where others’ would proudly prevail.
And eating more ibuprofen than I should be.

I’m no dentist, but there are mouthwashes and toothpastes that are made for strengthening tooth enamel. They might be able to get you some samples by prescription.
