I agree with Tram.  Does the dentist know about the methadone?  I am guessing no or you would not be asking this question.  It is very dangerous to take that high of a dosage of opiates and your not under doctors supervision.  That is a recipe for OD.  Please call your doctor.  I know it is hard to be honest but if you really want to do things the right way and the safe way you need to call.  Good luck!!!

Hi!  That is something that you have to run by the doctor and dentist.  The dentist should be aware of the methadone, and the methadone clinic should be aware of the lortab.  That way all is cool with everyone!!!  AND you get good advice on what to do! : )))  

Sorry about your mouth!
