Weekly Newbie Thread - Post questions about joining the AF or what a job is like here & here only - week of March 09

I went to the dentist today, and found out Ive got two dead teeth. One visually looks like a completely normal tooth, they found out it was dead through the xray. The other has an abscess(google image is exactly what it looks like). They're both completely painless. Other than that I was told the rest of my teeth look above average, he says the only reason it happened is because my mother never took me to get the cavities on those teeth filled years back. I'm not sure if both are infected, or if its just the abscessed one as I didn't think to ask.

If I went to MEPS without getting the root canals would the abscess disqualify me? And also, would I have to wait a while after the root canal procedures before going to MEPS? Thanks!
