Dentist @ 9

Can't stand the dentist but I appear to have broken a wisdom tooth in half. Didn't even notice till last night . I hate the dentist with a passion. Not a happy bunny!

I had all of my wisdom teeth removed about 10 years ago. Good luck and hope it isn't too tramatic for you.

I broke my wisdom tooth last year too. I don't blame you...I never enjoy the dentist either The good thing about it is when it's over you don't have to stress about it anymore though.

Hope it goes well

>< you be fine

I'm really stressed about it, its a real fear. Never used to be, had to see the orthadontist every few weeks when I had braces. That was years ago and since then I have a real phobia.

Thanks, and yes Gemma at least once its done its over but if I have to have it out it means the hospital, can't do it in the chair.

Proper worried

I used to be terified of the dentist, after a visit as a child, until I found a very good one receommended by a colleague. I had a wisdom tooth extracted and honestly did not feel a thing. I have a phobia of needles, very bad but I can go to the dentist and have anything done now. You will feel much better once it is over. I know this is easy to say but please try not to keep thinking about it.

If you are not good with them maybe have a chat to your doctor, explain the problem, and see if they can recommend someone in your area.

If your dog was in pain you would want something done about it quickly, it's the same for you. Afford yourself the same compation. You will be fine.

Good luck at the dentist. It never used to bother me going but in the last few years I've put off going as long as i can then afterwards I'm so glad I went ><

Thanks all Kinda went..........

Dentist; Yes, you have broken it, I'm going to have to repair it.

Me; I new you would say that, I hate fillings.

Detist; Well I can always take it out.

Me; Erm, no a filling will do.

£50 and half hour later, I have a very numb mouth but its fixed just a minor lecture about smoking and eating too many sweets

Thank god thats over with!! Xx

But nothing about the cider?

Glad to hear it wasn't too dramatic. Getting them out isn't too terrible. It's a bit hard to eat for a day or two and you have to flush the wound out with a syringe for a week or so but you never have to worry about them again.

you should of had it rip out woman

Glad to hear it went OK. I too would have it taken out but that's me. Be careful of hot drinks!!

Sadist!

Im so scared of the dentist i cant go,not even with toothache.Last time i went to the dentist i had a filling done and he did it wrong so i was constantly in pain till it fell out wich instantly took the pain away.Now i have a tooth with a hole in but never had a problem with it hurting,touch wood.So after that nightmare i wont go.

hope you can drink tonight

Went to the pub at lunch, needed something to calm the nerves! Well thats my excuse anyway

I have had the same dentist since I was born lol! He knows me and my attitude. It just has got continuasly worse as I have got older.

He was an old generation dentist, I have multiple fillings but I go every 6 months and haven't had one in 2 years. I have great teeth to look at (if I say so myself lol) but the trauma just gets worse every time I go.

Still have my regular check up in January lol Xx

Oh man.........the filling has broken, I have to go back tomorrow.........I hate the dentist      

what have you been eating?

Oh dear Janey, if it was Moo you would be straight to the vet for it to be sorted out, afford yourself the same compassion. Get it done as soon as you can.

Hope it isn't the cider dissolving your teeth  

ahh poor you,i hate the dentist too,scare me silly  

  your probably right there.....its not what I eat but what I drink!

Its just this tooth.....I am not a gummy bear  

Broken filling, sounds painful, hope they sort you out tomorrow xx

Ooh me no like dentist either! My fillings are always coming out. Gummy bear! 

Well I imagine a crooked tooth witch..I am not  

Yes I hate them and its only gonna be temporary tomorrow  

Ouch hope they sort it janey xx

Better not have too much cider tonight then Janey, don't want to knock the dentist out with the fumes! 

Wondered why he always wears a mask when I go    

 

Mine wears a gas mask! 

Good luck Janey, a temporary filling will soothe pain, but wisdom teeth are generally trouble and we're better off without them so consider it.

I used to be terrified of dentists as well - so much so that I had to be sedated. Now I go to a brilliant dentist in Camberley - it's not far from you!

Thinking of you ....  

To have them out I would have to be sedated, so I will just fill it again......can't be far off dentures anyway, bloody 30 soon   

Be guided by your dentist Janey, sometimes wisdom teeth are poorly formed and just can't be saved (I lost all 4 of mine during my first pregnancy and don't miss them one little bit). Whipping your broken one out won't take a minute, less time than refilling in fact.

Be a big brave girl!

Ouch and no, and ouch and no, and that makes me feel ill  

You have more than 1 tooth Janey? Stop it your just showing off now

    count down begins........1 hour 40 mins  

Good luck xx

Good luck  

Leaving in 15mins   

You'll be fine, deep breaths, good luck xxx

Well he couldn't do anything but file it down and then told me its imminent that I have to have them out which means under a general anesthetic in hospital and it takes about a week to recover...........not what I wanted to hear  

 if you loose your wisdom teeth whats going to happen to your job you wont have any knowledge on artists   
wife had hers whiped out years ago was told weeks recovery she was fine after 2 days so not allways to bad

Aww no janey I'm sure your mum & moomin with look after you xxx

No Janey not what I would have wanted to hear either. Sure it will be fine though, lots of cider to numb it:) 

Thats the problem your not aloud to drink for a week    

Oh gosh that's a pain, I am afraid I would be extracting it myself! 

They not that bad. Couple of days and you should be fine. Just have to have liquard lunch's for a bit
I've had all 4 out only to find I now have 3 new ones coming through. At the moment they not causing any pain. But not happy I have another set

Bit crap Blue, hope it comes to all and nothing...thought you only got 1 set of wisdom teeth?!

I don't like dentists, or hospitals and have never been under anesthetic before and it scares the hell out me. I don't wanna.......

Awww Janey  You'll be fine  

Repeat....I don't wanna  

But it will be best or it might get infected then you'll need root canal! xx
