Speaking as someone who's had 3 root canals I can only say this:

I just hope it happens before Sebastian or I need major work. We've both developed GREAT habits for flossing and brushing in the last few months, though, and that should improve our odds of making it...assuming that they do actually get to the point where dental regeneration is available from our dentist, of course.

There is a possibility that I may need a 4th one. I guess I'm just in that stage of life where they're breaking on me.
