toothache
8 Answers
Hi all, I have had a bad toothache for three days now and before you say go to the dentist, I am absolutely terrified of going because I have had 2 really bad experiences. The 1st one was when I had a tooth out he gave me 7 numbing injections and I could still feel everything even though he said I couldnt and the 2nd time was when I had a tooth out he stitched my gum together while stitching the hole up where my tooth had come out. Is there anyway I could go and be put out while they do the work on my tooth does anyone know please?

At my appointment, I went into the room and STOOD rather than got into the scary chair. I explained calmly and clearly what my immediate problem was.............I told the Dentist that I was aware that I probably needed 'other' work to be done, and agreed that if he sorted me out 'now' painlessly and completely, having 'listened' closely to what I told him, I would return and he could do whatever else was necessary.............
..................top bloke, agreed; he got me sorted and I haven't looked back since !!

I HATE the dentists...
I had a really lovely guy who was gentle and sympathetic.... alas.. they want completely private and would not treat my kids on the NHS... I then was offered an alternative,,, we went.. and saw a Polish dentist... she examined 4 mouths ( me and 3 daughters) without changing her gloves, and had revolting breath (no mask)....
We went to our NEW dentist last week... we were scared... but we walked in the room... all new gleaming equiptment.... and the dentsit was spanish ans the image of Enrique Inglasias!!!!!
I need 2 fillings... 3rd October is my appointment... CANNOT WAIT!!!!!

sounds like you need knocking out before your treatment. talk to your dentist. i had a really bad experience when i was 11 but now i,ve found a dentist who is sympathetic and will work with you.
as for the pain (for the mo) try boots dental pain relief and rub some clove oil on the tooth.
good luck.
