Been to the dentist today

it was in london, (the london hospital whitechapel) had sedation treatment. and had 2 teeth taken out, they use nitrious oxide (laughing gas) oh man i was away with the fairys. also had loads of gum numbing, that bit hurt. the actul extractions i didnt feel. ive had an infection in my upper jawbone, made it shrink,so perfectly good teeth where falling out. so they took the last 2 out, and next month i start the 2nd part, they take moulds then i can have my new teeth made.
but blimey my head hurts now. the floaty bits have worn off, so maybe a top up of some paracetamol.
oh did see some pearly kings n queens in shadwell. and i didnt have a camera with me darn it.
and im on mush for a few weeks now. so got a feeling im gonna lose some weight.

Re: Been to the dentist today

Don't envy you one little bit-I am petrified of dentists even though I go every 6 months for check. Some years ago I had to have a tooth out, one of the big ones at the back. They gave me a valium injection-it was like floating on air-didn't feel a thing but was a bit zombified when I got home Good luck with the rest of your treatment.

Poor you, I hope you feel better soon.

I really must go to the dentist, I have a phobia and haven't been back for at least five years after having to cancel an appointment due to having an operation.

Oh Cathy, not a pleasant day for you then, did you know that they use Nitrous Oxide in drag racing cars ? did you fly out the hospital after they finished the treatment.

Hope you're feeling better after a good sleep Cathy.
Veganin seems to be a good painkiller for dental/facial pain, though I know your other meds may preclude you from taking it

How does your mouth feel today, Cathy? Hopefully after painkillers and a good sleep last night things are easier today...

Hope you are feeling a bit better today Cathy. I don't like dentists either.

Does anyone actually enjoy going to the dentist???
