Not the day I had planned

#1

Post by Steve M »

I've been waiting to have a tooth removed for a few weeks - well, today was the day.
Phone call first thing from the surgery offering a slightly earlier appt. Suited me as I wouldn't miss the GP.
Tooth removed, GP watched and now I'm in A&E as my mouth won't stop bleeding.
Could be a long night.

Hope you get sorted out ok.

I've got a broken wisdom tooth that needs removing. I've got an appointment for my regular check-up on the 20th. Not looking forwards to it, it's a new dentist that I've not seen before. :?

Good luck - there are drugs the can put on the surface of the bleed site to stop it bleeding - not sure if they can put it in the mouth though, although they do put It inside you if you're having surgery.

I hope your feeling better soon Steve - your post reminded me that I have to have a crown fitted when I get back - I really don't like going to the dentist. Barry

PS.Hope you enjoyed the GP?

Ouch! Hope you they get you sorted and back up and running - or maybe that should be eating - soon.

Hi Steve

Hope you get well soon. Surely it's not that bad!! After all, I had a brain scan a couple o weeks ago and you haven't heard me make a fuss. ;)

Thanks for the sympathy/apathy (delete as applicable :D )

Hopefully all sorted now - three stitches and more blood than Game of Thrones. :o

PP, IanS beat me to it.

Barry, beware, this treatment started off as a crown and went downhill from there.

No, anyone was free to watch. :lol:

But I do have dental insurance that pays for the treatment - does that count?
