wormster:
First off I hate the dentist (or any doctor/medical thingamy) and secondly I have a MASSIVE needle phobia.

Had a couple removed a few years ago:

Getting the jaw numb was bad enough: lots of Novacane paste and about 27 injections ("Just a little scratch!").

The removal was painful to put it mildly (had to stop the toof fairy half way through the first one), it felt like he was going to rip my jawbone off!!

Stitching up after was unbearable, it took another visit a few weeks later to get them taken out. 

Getting shoved out onto the street spitting blood was demeaning, not being able to drive due to the amount of painkillers was a bit naffing annoying.

But, the most painful bit was "Err.......... you might pick a few bits of bone of your jaw" was EXCRUCIATING especially as a lump 1 inch long (using the tweezers on my Swiss army knife and in the South of France was pulled (by myself)) a month after!

Not to mention the several hundred quid he charged as well - THAT reely stung!!

That [!Expletive Deleted!] didn't last long after my complaint, the next time I went to the same practice some little oriental thing tapped my teeth took a few X-rays and said "Ah so - you need lots of work come back soon!" - my reply was "Foxtrot Oscar - you're not getting another quid out of me, you're only interested in the money!!"

I'd like to point out that until I had this work done I'd not had a tooth out or a filling my mouth.

So now I have a MASSIVE gap a the bottom of my left jaw and the latter still holds true - NO fillings.

I vowed never to go to a dentist again, I'd rather pull any rotten ones out myself, THAT way I can control the amount of pain I suffer and not get STUNG in my WALLET!!

(sorry fellas I'll get off my soapbox now)

DENTISTS...................GERRRR

Loss of feeling in my jaw.....................C'mon fella you're 'aving a giraffe!!

Disco Matt:
Anyone else noticing the parallels between this and the "help, my truck is doing this..." threads? We seem to have as many worst case scenario horror stories about medical procedures as we do about vehicle problems!  :lol:

wormster:
Well...........yes you're going to get extreams.............but that's life.

As a mate of mine said though: if you grab the dentist by the knackers and say "Too much pain and I squeeze!!" he'll get the message!!!

The Smiths:
mines female - what do I grab then???
