Sitting on the bed feeling a bit ordinary. I just had a molar pulled and the anesthetic is wearing off. The first one I've lost for 30 years so I've had a good run :/ I think tonight might be interesting. :|
 
Hi there kemjak57,
Like yourself and many others, I feel your PAIN.
You might of just started a new topic for a world of pain.
Don't eat ice cream or drink hot beverages if you want to sleep tonight.
Take care.
Cheers Steve :8 :eek: :|
 
You'll be right mate. Things that agravate a flesh wound may hurt your mouth so go easy on the salt and stick with baby food. The pain of having a tooth pulled doesn't linger too long or at least not in my case. Had 2 pulled either side a few days apart to make room for braces 5 years ago. I also had a root canal some time back. Worst decision I could have made. The success rate is 70% but I am in the 30% category and suffering with a come and go tooth ache for the last 2 years. Basically I avoid chewing on that tooth. Might get it yanked out next check up and be done with it.
 
A world of pain.I used to get "migraine earaches" when I was a kid. I used to scream in agony, 8.( then after about 4 years of not knowing what was going on, a doctor discovered an abses (spelling) inside my ear hole. He needled me with local the burnt it out. He couldn't work out why I was still feeling pain after 3 needles of anesthetic then realised he was leaning the quarteriser thingy on a piece of my ear that wasn't deadened :mad: anyway since then I have had no probs. :)
 
Any gold in that tooth? Asked a dentist for gold amalgam filling once and got a we don't do that any more, I was pretty disappointed.
 
Got mine polished last week! :p

Try this if it don't work just drink the bottle

Relieve a toothache. Take a shot of Smirnoff Vodka and swish it over the tooth, allowing your gums to absorb some of the alcohol and numb the pain. Swallow or spit out the rest.

Have a look at wackyuses.com, some interesting uses for things there, I can vouch for the wd40 as fishing bait worked a treat.

Maybe he/she meant they don't do amalgam anymore?
Gold & amalgam restorations are two entirely different things.

All the big refineries (Degussa, Heraeus, Argen etc) still produce dental gold alloys for use today.

I did ask just for gold fillings, thought amalgam was a generic term for alloy fillings. Live and learn :)
 
Amalgams contained mercury,
So its a bit like a dental version of asking for asbestos as roof insulation these days.
Gold is not a problem for restorations, but most people today look for a more aesthetic alternative.
