no they dont offer anything. They will just numb it and take it out, I would have prefered to have been knocked out tho.

Im having two teeth taken out, one today and one tomorrow hopefully its nice and easy and doesnt take long. Aparently its going to cost me 130 pounds to have them taken out which i think is extautionate as normally its only 45 a tooth not 65 !

Hopefully its cheaper but i will let you know tonight x

ok ONE IS OUT ! It wasnt that bad but not comfortable at all, had the injection which stung then i was sent into the waiting room for about 5 minutes then went back in for the extraction. didnt feel much just presure and a dull pain in my jaw then it was over.

she asked me if i wanted my tooth i said no she said oh thats good its a nice tooth and my collegue would love to have it for something she is doing lol

I was like okkkkkkkkkkkay then.

Round two tomorrow, hopefully i can eat something tonight because i wont be on much tomorrow with two ranking great holes in my mouth

Glad to hear it went well! I never did understand why they didn't pull them both the same day, though.

in for second one soon, aparently she said you can relapse if they take both out and your whole tongue could go numb meaning you could bit or swallow it i think eeeeeeeeeeeeew grosssssse

Hope its all gone ok kerry.

Dont understand how you can have a relapse from a wisdom tooth removal

but im sure they have there reasons for taking them out a day apart.

second one done didnt hurt as much as the first but i may have taken the gauze out too early and it wont stop bleeding, how long will it take to stop does anyone know ?
