You were knocked out? I was awake. All I had was Novacaine. I didn't even feel her pull my first one out. I just laid there while she tugged on my tooth. Then she holds the tooth in front of me and I went, "thats it?". I took 1 ibuprofen while the Novacaine was still active just in case I had pain after. Didn't take anything after that. I ate solid food the same day. 2nd one was the same, just a little painful because it was rotten. I was on ibuprofen for the rest of the day but that was it.
I still have 2 because I have the room.
Yea my Oral Surgeon was an awesome DR. He said that when pulling all 4 he won't let people stay awake, there is to much room for error and it makes it feel more comfortable just being knocked out... So I get there, rinse my mouth, sit down and get the IV and I was OUT woke up like an hr later and went home... It was easy.... I tried to eat a cheeseburger but the gauze made it not work so well lol... I honestly had no real pain the first 2 days other than if I strained myself...
I had mine done in bootcamp.
Yea, you havent lived untill they break, and rip out 4 teeth using the bare minimum standards. and dont give two shits about your well being.
but i toughed it out, and saved the Perks for the last week. That was a good week.
Damn dude Im sorry you had to do that... I was very cautious about who because Ive never even had a toothache other than the wisdoms... let alone surgery
I had two of mine pulled out, not at the same time though. I was awake when I had it pulled out. waited about a month and got the other one removed. no swelling but i was in pain for like the first week.
Yea with all 4 being pulled my DR said if you want to be awake you can see another DR because it is way more safe this way....
i got mine done after i got back from iraq. i requested to be put under. when i woke up,it felt like it 2 minutes later. my friend picked me up n dropped me off at home. i just ate ice cream for a coupel days. popped pills like crazy. by the 3 or 4th day i was eating normal food. i probably wasnt suppose to but i needed real food.
Yea dude I was eating Taco Bell Soft Taco's with no lettuce for the first two days and lots of ice cream lol... I have been eating normal food off and on since surgery...
The thing I hate is the mouth rinse, it is fine until like 30 min later your mouth tastes nasty....
OOOOOOOOOO I remember why he said they knock me out one is because of comfort but the reason that they do IV vs Gas is because of the altitude I live in CO so with being this high up the IV is the safest....
And for the past 2 days what hurt the most is where the f**king mouth clamps were at... I got a blister on one lip and like a red scab on the corner of my mouth, looks like a soar but its not...
