    Same here. No problems and that was about 9 years ago.

    Here, Hear!!!

    I payed about $100. I had 4 wisdoms removed this past January, had time off of work (a couple days thanks to Bill Clinton) afterwards and was totally back up to snuff in 2 weeks. I had revisits to remove some stitches and remove some tooth that was left in.

    Sounds like dentists are gettin' over in the down under.

    I get check-ups/cleanings every 6 months for free.

    Extractions should cost next to nothing. That's the way ghetto dentist do it for folks with no health insurance..............

    Got a mere cavity? "Ahh yeah that tooth's gotta come out."

    Are you getting a crown?

    After a root canal the tooth becomes brittle.

    Just got back. Well, I got back about 3 hours ago, but I just wokeup. Ok, they put the IV in my right arm, hooked up the meds, doc looked at me and said you should be feeling this right about now, and that was the last thing I remember.

    Two cute nurses helped me walk to the recovery room. Where I proceded to cry. WTF?!?! I didn't cry at my grandfather's funeral, but why the hell now? I feel like I'm about 10 years old at this point.


    Now that I am more aware and awake, I have a small memory of one of my teeth getting pulled. It's really fussy and probably just some drug induced dream, but it's still weird.

    My front lip and tip of my tongue are still numb, something to do with the nerve that the wisdom tooth was touching. Doc said this is normal and should come back shortly.

    Only complaint, other then crying like a kid :shrug: , is the damn drugstore and their slow ass. Took them over an hour to fill my script and by that time my meds were wearing off. This was about an hour ago and now I took twice the dose and feel nothing and am quite happy. Wow for a minute there it was horrible pain, but overall this wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be.
