The subreddit I moderate has had a poll going for the last 2.5 days.
- 1390 members.
- 75 poll respondents (5% of members)
- 7 commenters (0.5% of members)
It's a disappointing turnout. Also, I'm one of those poll respondents and commenters. (If you remind me, I'll post a link to the poll once it closes in 8 hours.)
I'm not a doctor, but when my dog had a tooth infection the vet was pretty concerned. Teeth are close to the brain and eyes and if an infection spreads it's bad.
And the hospital doesn't want to keep you overnight, either. If they insist there will be a good reason.
