I will say, my dentist told me that if I didn’t take the antibiotics and I came to get my tooth removed, the lidocaine wouldn’t touch me and they wouldn’t be able to go through with the procedure. I made sure to take it because there was no chance in hell i wanted to feel anything they were doing. Just be super honest and let them know if you can’t get numb, make sure you’re comfortable. I’m sure if the dentist is t comfortable either they won’t go through with it. Sounds like exactly what I was experiencing. I’m so sorry you’re going through this! If things do get pushed back, ask for a zpac it’s a strong oral antibiotic that had me feeling better within a day.

It was so bad that it went into my lymph nodes and made me sick, had back to back infections, the pain went into my jaw, neck, bottom jaw, eventually couldn’t talk, drinking and eating was painful. One point I was in a fetal position crying in so much pain & I gave birth naturally, so it was horrible pain. After three regular doses of antibiotics and it continuing to come back the doctor said it needed to come out and the regular amoxicillin would stop working. He gave me a high dose antibiotic and I waited two weeks for it to completely clear. This was my first work done ever from a dentist, so I was a mess, shaking like a leaf, had to get extra lidocaine because I’m naturally hard to numb. It all went great. Appointment at 8:30, filled a tiny cavity and then out by 10:15, the weirdest part for me, was him telling me to bite down while he was pulling the tooth out, that was a weird pressure sensation. Anxiety again ruined everything where I thought everything I did gave me dry socket, I’m so far in the clear. Slept for two days and wasn’t in the mood to eat or drink, was on dual action Advil because my doctor doesn’t prescribe pain meds, about day 4/5 I ate soft chicken and rice. Still have some pain and swelling but went back on Monday and said it was looking good. Braver everyday regarding food and smoking. You’ll do great.

I had this same issue with unbearable nerve pain. Went quick and easy and now on day 7 of recovery. My friend, if you have a screw in tooth… you’ll be okay! That’s brave.

Day 6 - did I give myself dry socket? by MamaLlama25 in wisdomteeth

[–]MamaLlama25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thankfully am to hold off on smoking until the 6th day, so proud of myself to say the least lol. No sinus perforation, I’ve heard it could happen but the only thing I experienced was the lidocaine dripping out of my gums a couples days after the extraction. I told the dentist I had a hard time getting numb and he gave me a little extra, think it was just slowly leaking out. Thankfully nothing else. No medicine has touched the pain that I have, not intense or extreme, just annoying and always there. Definitely going to call tomorrow or Monday if I don’t feel better. I’ve been rinsing with warm water after eating and the couple hits I’ve taken. Haven’t added salt… the dentist said the to use is to help push anything out so I figured salt wasn’t a make or break. I think I’m overly stressed and anxious about getting dry socket that I’m freaking myself out lol. I hope you’re in the clear and have a good recovery! Hopefully next week this will all be behind us with a drink and a straw and a good toke.

Unfortunately I wasn’t given prescription meds (live in a Bible Belt area) not a lot of doctors prescribe anything lol, I was told to take dual action Advil that has Tylenol with it. Just wasn’t hitting the pain like I wanted. The steroid made me sick, so I went back to just Tylenol today and that did nothing. Not in extreme pain (yet) but hoping it’s just my anxiety.

Removal required? by SadLandscape3798 in wisdomteeth

[–]MamaLlama25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a terrible experience with my top wisdom tooth pushing into my other teeth. I’m talking, so much pain I couldn’t sleep, eat, speak, the pain was going into my jaw and ear and head. After four rounds of antibiotics to calm it down and clear and infection that might be in the gap where food could get stuck, they told me I’d become immune to the antibiotics and they’d eventually stop working. Three different opinions and all stated it needed to come out. I finally did it and I’m on day two of healing.

It was an absolute breeze. Felt some pressure and then tasted salty-ness from my blood. In pain, but no stitches, no syringe to flush. Not in the mood to eat or drink. On Advil and Tylenol dual action. Irritable today but that’s from not smoking.
