Default wisdom teeth removal

to cut a long story short, my mrs needs one of her wisdom teeth removing, but there is a 2 month wait at the hospital as the dentist can't do it as it's too far fucked

has anyone been to these pay as you remove dentists where they give you squillions of pesos for showing junior dentists how these teeth are removed?

is it worth it?

how much do you get paid?

whats the after care service like?

etc?

If it is too far fucked for a dentist to remove in the chair, then presumably it needs to be removed under general anaesthetic.

Given this, then it will need to be in a hospital irrespective.

Your only alternative given this will be private, which will cost a lot of money. Is she on antibiotics? If it is a lot of pain, it may be infected, in which case the infection will need to subside before they do anything with it anyway.

I am of course neither a dentist nor a doctor. This is just my opinion.

I would not want loads of people watching me squeal whilst the dentist smashes the shit out of my tooth with what feels like a chisel.

Best of luck mate, as you can tell I did not enjoy having mine out

Had mine done 9 years ago. Had a general as had all four out. My boss at the time said see you in three days son so thought no probs. After being counted out can remember waking up with my left eye shut due to swelling and our kid sitting in front of me me with my mouth slowly dripping blood asking if I was okay.

Never again! All mine were compacted in and my chest was black & blue for weeks where the doctor had been kneeling on my chest when chiseling them out!

The pain was worse with them in! Dont do it especially if sombody is going to be watching - even if you get paid!

if the tooth cracks while pulling out yes it is a open the gum job but you will be out via gass or injection jobby your not awake

you can not drive aferwards the JOB for about 6 hours due to the anesthetic you will feel no pain at all ..afterwards DGS will help ..if still in pain

my 5th tooth on the right has cost me so far near £400 ..

tooth bad drilled ..nerve removed gold cap basically full tooth gone apart from the shell ..BUT as there is no blood to the shell ..the outer shell goes black and feels dead ..so you have a full gold cap with a white shell for a while .lasted about 4 years for me ..

tooth now looks black . on the outside

next time pull it out ..

the nerve looks like a bit of white string

BUT they dig deep to find it


ENJOY

i'll tell her to let the hospital sort it then

broken jaw i won't tell her that bit

i've seen the tooth and it's growing outwards towards her cheek which is why she's in loads of pain, but it's a 2 month wait
