Wisdom tooth problem :(

I was reading how they could sort my tooth out without injections and it said about fillings needing to have one and I literally had tears in my eyes, that's how bad it is.

It's not even the work that goes on, it really is just the injection. I'm not a fan of them normally but I can tolerate them where I won't avoid going to have them done, but with the dentist I've literally just not gone in years [Opps] and now I have a terrible pain with this wisdom tooth. I'm almost hoping they say they have to take the tooth out and able to use a general anesthetic[sp].

Is anybody else the same with dentists or am I just a wuss? :(

But to have general anaesthetic administered you'll need a needle, so it's a needle either way...

you can have gas, then i think they put a needle in you. when i was younger they gave me gas that tasted like bubblegum and i went.



i had loads of teeth out when i was younger and they would stick this pole into your tooth and it would crunch and they just pulled it out. horrible experience but it never hurt once not even when the anaesthetic wore off.

itll be fine!!!

honest

I had 4 of them ;/ I got them all pulled at once and it hurt just a bit tho ( Because the drugs they gave me didnt fully put me asleep ) but the drugs they gave me after for it were amazing

They do put a needle in your hand, if I remember rightly it's before the anaesthetic, but you may be drugged up with something else before then.

Talking about wisdom teeth, mine keep bleedin, such a nuisance
