Wisdom Teeth

<< < (3/4) > >>

Silvia Martin:
Piece of cake.The dentist told me on my way out to stop at Mc Donalds for a milkshake so I could take my pain meds right away. I remember all I wanted to do was to eat my husbands BIG MAC ;D. I wasn't allowed to use a straw for my shake. We had way to much fun with that. Imagine trying to slurp that stuff from an open cup with your whole mouth completely numb ;D ;D :D. 

Linny:
When I was talking after the procedure, my husband told me I looked like Sly Stallone! One half of my face was numb and didn't move when I talked!  :D

Silvia Martin:
I told the dentist before he started that I was afraid to have my whole moth numb,because I thought i wouldn't be able to swallow. He said that he would do some and then ask if i was ok to procede.  :-\
He said even though i was sedated I was still able to respond. Sure enough the only thing i remember after the IV was put in was him asking me if i was ok and me nodding.Wow.

Craig,
Check in with us when you feel up to it and let us know how you're doing.  My husband will be going thru the same thing soon--he's avoided dentists for over 15 years and just went on Monday.  I'm very proud of him for making follow up appointments for next week considering how much he haaaaaaates it.  Thank goodness for VISA--our insurance only goes so far when that long since last visit. ;)

Funny story for you:  I had all four wisdom teeth out years back and I was doped up just enough to start laughing at the dentist as he had pliers in my mouth--he was gritting his teeth and straining and pulling, he was really going to it!  He asked me what was so funny, and I slurred something to the effect that I bet he thought when he went to dental school that he was getting out of doing manual labor for a living.  He started laughing so hard that he had to quit for a couple of minutes, and the novacaine was wearing off anyway--so he had to shoot me up again and come back when it took effect to finish up.  My ride had a scheduling mixup, so I was fixture at the dentist's office until someone could leave work to come get me--about 3 hours AFTER the teeth were out--the dental office ladies were like, here, please stay in the Dr.'s private office and relax on his couch, (translation: please don't scare away our patients with your bloody gauzy mouth and swollen jaws).  It was a long, drawn out experience, but pretty funny looking back.  It was my birthday that weekend--my mom has a great picture of a chipmunk holding a birthday cake. 

Prayers that you have a better day!
Vangie

Samson:
Hey Craig,

              Hope you survived with your Teeth(no pun intended) and Nerves intact. This You-Tube below is for you, hopefully these weren't your Dentist(s).  ;D
