Im facing surgery - need teeth extracted


Found out this past Tues that I need 2 teeth extracted. Need a bridge turned into a partial. Ive had a partial now for a few yrs on the upper left side. Will need new 1 to include both sides.


Ouch ouch ouch. Im insisting the oral surgeon puts me under. No surgery date yet. This Thurs I go for the impressions before they extract the teeth.

I had to ask my A for a ride to/from the oral surgeons. So far he has agreed to help so thats good.

Hi Barbara,


Dentist's are never fun are they.  How wonderful though that you will be able to get a partial made.  I hope everything turns out well for you!  Good Luck.

(((((((Barbara)))))))))),


I have had teeth "issues" also so I understand.  The nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and then novacane really worked for me (for smaller issues).  I will say a lil prayer for you.


Just a thought "take what you like and leave the rest," but if you A in the past has been unreliable, you may want to have a Plan B ready in case something comes up for your A and they can't bring you.  For me, I always have a Plan B in mind and ready for action.


yours in recovery,


Maria123

I have major dental issues one is affording it.  I have a partial I need and currently have a temp which definitely looks better than the tooth I had.  I have a lot of issues with the pain/time involved and the expense. I am glad that you are talking about this. I dont need any more extractions but I have to say I am not looking forward to the next phase of my treatment.


I don't when I will begin on it even but I do have an intention of following it through.
