The reason I want to know this is because when I was younger my dentist was looney and wanted to do all sorts of messed up stuff to my mouth. He had me on Valium, and I overdosed on laughing gas once, which is why I never want it again.

If someone has had problems in the past with anesthesia can a patient then choose to use Novacain or something to numb their gums instead? Can you have MULTIPLE EXTRACTIONS while using a topical anesthetic or do you have to get put under?

Thanks

I'm getting my wisdom teeth out tomorrow (all four). I've never had a tooth pulled let alone holes cut into my gums to remove a tooth. My brother's got infected and he was in pain for weeks. I have plans on friday ( 3 days after my teeth come out), will I feel better by then? Anything that you can tell me to make me feel better? Thanks!!

okay, so my orthodontist said i'd get my braces off in March, if I wore my rubber bands. Well, I have, but they're so painful (on my bottom molars) that I can't close my mouth, and I can't sleep, can't eat, can barely talk. It's almost unbearable. And they seem to shift back if I take them out for just a minute or two. Anybody know what I should do? Also, is getting braces off painful? Because these are coming off right before a trip to Italy, and I don't want excrutiating international pain. Thanks, much appreciated on both questions!

I have a lg fear of needles. I've managed to deal w/ it every time it came of having blood drawn, etc. Having 2 kids, it's not something I considered optional.

I've been lucky to go through my teen & adult years (this far - I'm 28) w/o any cavities - until now. While, like the tests & things I had to have done during pregnancy, I don't consider this optional either. My problem is that my fear of needles sends me straight into an anxiety attack. I went in for my appt today & while I was nervous, I told myself I was going to stick it out. It didn't happen. As soon as the asst. put the topical in my mouth to numb the gums, I lost it. I started gagging on saliva & the topical, got sick to my stomach and got really dizzy. After the dentist found out about it she sent me home w/ a new appt & a prescription for 12 mg of Vallium to take an hour before hand. Honestly, I don't know how Vallium's going to fix this! I was just wondering if anyone had any similiar experiences or tips.

I've heard a lot of people say root canal isn't painful when you get anesthetized. But does the injection to numb you hurt?

Hmmmm, hi guys! Last week, probably around wednesday I swallowed some gum accidentaly (due to laughter!). Ever since, I have felt it - it's stuck to my throat! I have tried to eat whole bits of food instead of chewing in hope that it will go but to no avail! Anyone know what I could do? It's not causing me much problem but feels uncomfortable when I swallow.

Thanks,
J.
