Title: That was like...pulling teeth
Post by: shockwaves on February 20, 2003, 12:55:20 PM
Just got back from having my wisdom teeth pulled.  I\'m posting here because I can\'t talk much until the novocain wears off.

Anyway, anyone who bitches about that procedure really, is a total pussy.  That was some easy shit, especially by comparison.  I had my two front teeth broken into pieces playing hockey a while back.  I got high sticked, and about 2/3 of those teeth ended up in my upper lip.  The rebuilding of those teeth...now that was a painful procedure.  This was nothing though.  I\'m just pissed that I can\'t do anything for a couple days :(

Dentists don\'t bother me to be honest, which reminds me I have a check up next week.

lol, is your dentist Dr. Bob? He always calls me "Hunny"

/me shudders at the though of a very friendly old man with sharp objects.

Anyways, yeah I had to have my teeth pulled twice, two molars each time, bottom right and top left.

The first time the damn bastard opened my mouth with a hook, it\'s still kind of sensitive there. The worst part is, he billed us without even telling my parents that he was gonna pull them beforehand.:rpissed:

Thats why we switched to Dr. Bob. *shudder*

That was just plain stupid man.:crap:

I had five wisdom teeth pulled out and yes, it was no fun. I ended up with dry socket and that is painful.

I got lucky in the tooth department... I have never had a cavity, all my wisdom teeth are in (and will never have to be removed, unless they get cavities) and all my teeth are atraight.  Hey, Juslight has a Snaggle tooth story for everyone  (And they arent about his teeth)  Come on Juslight.  Tell the group about Coatrack :)  muhahahahaaa

how long did your whole process take?
Title: That was like...pulling teeth
Post by: shockwaves on February 20, 2003, 03:19:58 PM
Less than an hour.

Ugh, I have this horrible taste in my mouth, and I can\'t figure out what it is (insert jokes here).  At least the novocain has worn off.

I had 3 of them out at a time, it wasn\'t so bad during, it just had major aches around the area and up to my head after the numbness died down for a few hours.

I still have one more to be yanked. :(

Well, it\'s 7 hours later now, and I have yet to feel any pain.  Guess I\'m just lucky.

Novicane really doesn\'t work all that well for me. I was getting my teeth drilled. On one side, they shot me with a whole lot of novicane and I still felt it. When they were pulling out my teeth, I felt it. Its really weird. Maybe its the way they put it in thats wrong. Anyway, I\'m taking the anesthesia when I get my wisdom teeth removed (which isn\'t too far alway :crap: )

Sucks if novicane doesn\'t work, cause then it\'ll hurt like a byatch!

And it did. They shot me up a couple of times when I told them I felt it.

I had all 4 taken out at once. The bleeding would not stop for 12 hours. It was uncomfortable and the gums were in pain. The dentist really did a hamburger job on my back gums.

Some openings are just too easy, to the point where it isn\'t even worth it anymore, eh?

You really want a good one...combine with that the fact that I\'m not allowed to suck or spit for the next few days :)
