What's interesting about all this is that my dentist is Chinese. Heh. (I
wasn't totally sure from the wikipedia article who it would apply to, but
some
Chinese it seemed). I am not too worried, however, because he was working
from
an X-ray, and trying to find the third root based on that. But I will ask
him next time I go in, if he doesn't have to remove TWO more roots. Or
maybe he
already removed three and I just didn't get that.
Thanks for the head up.
