The Flying Dentist, or Ross bites off more than he can chew...

Ok, health up date on Ross. Back ok, tooth, not so good. On the day before we left Melbourne, he bit on something at lunchtime, heard a cracking noise and developed a whole new pain in his jaw where his wisdom tooth had been removed before we came away.
By the morning, his face looked like a hamster (no change there, I hear you cry). So when we arrived in stunning Port Douglas, one of the most beautiful areas of the entire planet, we lost little time in finding a dentist.
It must be the most beautiful surgery in the world, with running water and fabulous palms all around. Oddly enough Ross didn't seem to notice this. I don't know if he was more worried about his tooth or his bank balance.
Anyway, turns it was just a nasty infection, so our latest holiday souvenirs include vitimins, anitbiotics and an x ray.
Fortunately someone kindly gave us a lift to a nearby pharmacy, so he could start his treatment straight away and hopefully it will do the trick.
