My problem is I'm most likely going to have all teeth pulled. I have a very bad gag reflex on the roof of my mouth, top of my tongue, and the back gum area where my wisdom teeth are. I was wanting to know what type of options I have as far as something I can wear in my mouth to help chew? I'm also very paranoid about choking that I chew my food more than I should. I'm worrying that if I get my teeth removed and can't wear dentures that I won't be able to eat most foods since I won't be able to chew good. I'm already underweight so I can't afford to eat less.

hi, i actually just got my wisdom teeth out today! it wasnt as bad as i thought too. b/f going into it, the thing i worried about most was anesthesia as i have never been put to sleep before/dont know what it's like, but it happened so quick, so i'm fine. when i got home my cheeks were puffy and it was hard to eat even soft foods. my tongue felt like it was huge and heavy. then i put on ice packs for a few hours and the puffy cheeks went away. my mouth right now feels funny, but not extremely painful. and it is a little bit easier, but not easy, to eat. so i have a question for you that have had wisdom teeth extractions and remember a day by day thing. how many days after the first day will the pain last? does it get any worse than the first day? does it become easier to eat/brush your teeth? can someone, preferably a dentist or dental assistant or such, please tell me. thanks

I had scaling and root planing done last month on one quadrant of my mouth. I'm 28 years old and have always brushed twice a day, although I had slacked until now on flossing daily. I had developed periodontal pockets of 4mm and 5mm. i am going back to have next quadrant done, but i am starting to have an occasional dull pain in my gum underneath my gumline by a tooth where I had the scaling and root planing done. Should I have received a special rinse or antiobiotic after the procedure?

I can feel one wisdom tooth beginning to erupt in my upper left quarter, and began to wonder if it could be a solution to another problem - its neighbor molar. This molar has had a huge cavity, 2 botched fillings, a root canal, and was left without a cap due to abrupt financial reasons. This is a troublesome tooth.. and I'm wondering if it's possible to remove it, and replace it with the erupting wisdom tooth. Sure would be convenient..

it sometimes happens to me and it scares the daylights out of me for a couple of seconds until finally my jaw unlocks itself and i can close my mouth again. im starting to think, could it because of my wisdom teeth? they are just starting to grow out and im starting to think they are interefering with my jaw bone??? i have no idea, has that ever happened to you???

does the dentist do something weird to make it flat inside? or pull some teeth out? or take anything else out before someone gets dentures? Does anyone besides elderly people have dentures?

I've just had a serious absess resulting in two weeks in hospital and 24 hours in intensive care after having a known decayed wisdom tooth removed by my new dentist. The hospital have assured me it wasn't the dentists fault but I'm still not sure if it's an NHS cover up. Should she have X-rayed the tooth first to check for absess's. I am bringing up three children on my own so this has been a very scary time for all of us. I am now left with what seems to be a dislocated jaw (which I can't open more than an inch) which needs lots of exercising to hopefully right it.
