I'M GETTIN' IT PULLED...FINALLY!!!
by Rena705, Feb 26, 2008 11:16AM
Well I am finally getting that tooth that had the failed root canal pulled today at 3:30. I am NOT looking forward to it as when I had my wisdom teeth pulled they put me under so I have no idea what to expect this time.
My hubby is going to be there to hold my hand though so I think we should all have a little parting ceremony for the loss of my husband's hand...don't you think? I told him that things will never be the same after today....for him....being that he will only have one useable hand from now on! ha ha
Seriously though...I have got a serious ice pick pain in my head this morning and my Mom says that maybe it's all the tooth's fault...maybe once you get rid of it all your other problems will go away too?
Sure Mom and if I quit watching TV all my bad thoughts about neurologists will go away too...NOT!!!
Anyway, wish me luck and I could be away for hmmm...lets see...a couple of hours maybe??? tee hee
Hugs,
Rena

Are you going to an actual dentist or a ... "chain" ? *smirk*
I've had teeth pulled and really it's usually not a big deal at all. You'll be fine!

I HAD 2 MOLARS EXTRACTED LAST THURSDAY AND THE DENTIST WAS AWESOME,IT NEVER HURT NOR DID I HAVE MUCH RESIDUAL PAIN AFTERWARDS.
MY DENTIST HAD ME NUMB,BOTH TEETH OUT AND I WAS OUT OF HIS OFFICE IN 17 MINUTES.NO KIDDING.
THESE ARE THE TYPE OF APPOINTMENTS I LIKE WHEN THE DR RUSHES.(LOL)
HOPE ALL GOES WELL

Follow all of their instructions about keeping it clean so that there is no infection--that's where the pain can come in. Ask about whether or not they can put a little skin flap over where it was because that can help.

What a laugh we had!
My dentist is also learning about accupuncture and he wants to set me up for a accupuncture treatment...will tell you in another post ok?
Anyway, I never imagined that having a tooth pulled could be so easy! And hubby's hand is just fine!
