Andy eats a lot of fruit but he may have overdone it Thursday. He bit down "hard and weird" on cherry pit and immediately thought he might have cracked a molar. Friday morning it was still hurting so he called the dentist and they were able to squeeze him in. Turns out, it is cracked and the tooth has so many fillings, the dentist said he can't save it. Scared that it would break apart if it were pulled and possibly leave part in his gum, the dentist referred him to an oral surgeon. Andy will go there Tuesday and hopefully they'll be able to go ahead and take it out. There's a lot of steps involved but in the end he'll have an implant. The whole process could take eight months.
