more pills????

hi everyone!!!  I had an emergency dental visit today for a tooth that is absessed (sp?) and my dentist gave me a prescription for vicodin..a very small script..24 pills.  I did take the script but have NOT dropped it off at the pharmacy with the other two scripts he gave me. I am 20 days clean off vicodin and I know that there is no way in hell that I should fill it but my question is if I were to fill it and only take it for my tooth over a few day period would I go through w/d again???  I'm embarassed to admit that I'm thinking about filling it because I know that it's stupid after what I've been through but I will not attempt to get any more after...

Tare up the script while your thinking straight .If you are in allot of pain , you can take ibuprofen , then 2 hrs later take Tylenol and altenate every 2 hrs .
