Author Topic: Just had 3 wisdom teeth removed (Read 3073 times)

Colossus3 · « **on:** December 01, 2009, 03:16:13 PM »

Bill was 2200 dollars for 3 wisdom teeth plus being put under. Hope my insurance covers most of it but i still had to pay 25 percent up front out of my own pocket

Doctor told me to only eat liquid food for today. Nothing seems to satisfy. I ate almost entire container of cottage cheese and half container of vanilla yogurt and I'm still starving. Any other ideas what I could eat besides yogurt and cottage cheese?

I also had to remove 2 lipomas this month. Anyone ever had to remove those? Takes doctor 7 minutes to remove it but they charge you 2500 for it which I think is highway robbery for tiny 7 minute procedure!

this month has been pretty shitty for me

Make sure the Doc gets all the Lipomas because if not they will spread like fire.

A recent check up at my dentist was only £6.34.

I had a root canal done on my only tooth with a filling. 4 trips to dentist for various reasons and the surgery meant it was only £70. I didnt even need to be sedated or have local anaesthetic

I had one lipoma when i was 19 and when i turned 26 8 popet within year . Im almost done removing all of them now. Doctors say they dont know why people get them. Mostly it gets passed down from parents and grandparents.

if anything - ANYTHING - is funky with you in the next few days - run to the doctor.

Some ppl get very sick and die following dental work. infections hit blood, etc. Don't tough it out. anything gets funky, run to ER man.

sorry, but it's true. my neice (7) got a bad infection following dental work and almost went blind in one eye. And Wilt Chiamberlain nailed 20k women and escaped unscathed - but dental work did him in

Were they impacted? Is that why it was so expensive?

Oh, and take lots of vit C to help the healing process along.

Sounds like shakes for the rest of the night for you.

Best thing to do after wisdom tooth removal (had it done 1 year ago) is to take 3-4 perc's and pass out.

No sense sitting there in pain all miserable unable to eat, you might as well get some rest/sleep.

I paid around $230.00 for two, this was at an emergency 24 hour dental clinic, I was away at a cottage for the weekend with friends and this insane pain started from my wisdom teeth, for 2 days I was completely numbed out, couldn't even get out of bed, so on sunday drove back to the city and right to a clinic.

The worst pain of any surgery is always 1 full day after, when the body realizes what happened, lol..that's when the pain gets really intense.

My problem started in Rome at my sisters wedding. Seriously so much good food there and I was unable to have a lot of it.

When i got my wisdom tooth pulled. They give me Nitrous Oxide. That shit is great, no pain for about 2 hours. . Then i crash out for 36 hours straight, only waking up to piss.

i read that BBers have greater incidence of tooth injury due to increased AAS aggression + greater mandible/jaw strength, as muscle there grows too.

Had mine removed while haze grey and underway in the North Atlantic. Afterward the medical corpsman walked me back to berthing while blood and spit decorated my chambray shirt. Hey, it was free.
