I just pulled out my Wisdom tooth
#1
Posted 30 July 2011 - 07:20 AM
The tooth was loose and I kept working at it to make it looser.
Tonight it made a popping noise and laid over more than before. So I kept jiggling it and suddenly it popped out. It had a double knuckle root so that's why it came out so easily. I had to make a 1 am run to Walmart to get some gauze and Aleve but the store is 3 min from the house.
Surprisingly it does not hurt. That's not to say it isn't sore. Afterall it did leave a big empty socket. I am waiting on the bleeding to subside before I go to bed, but I'll still put a towel over my pillow tonight.
No straws for several days and I'll have to be careful to protect the socket until it heals in a few days. I'm sure I'll be spitting out bits of the tooth as a small section broke off.
I remember there is one Jwfan that is particularly squeemish. Richard I think. I'll gladly post a picture for his benefit.
"You're not John Conner, I saw you die, said Kyle". "I was only injured, replied John". "No, your injuries were too severe, you died. Look at you, where are your injuries? You're, you're a Terminator." "Kyle, its still me, yes my body was beyond repair, but my essence is here." He points to his head. "No John". Kyle raised his pulse rifle and aimed it at John but before he could fire, John fired first. Knocked to the ground Kyle looked up at the Terminator in the form of the man he once idolized. All hope was lost. "If you kill me how will you ever be born?" "Thats a good question Kyle, all this time we've focus on Sarah, on John, when had we known the it was you we should have targeted all along." John pointed his rifle at Kyle's face. "The resistance is finished, the battle is won. We the machines are the victors, salvation is ours." Kyle never heard the second shot.

Besides it was just a loose tooth, I wiggled it and it came free.
this morning I feel fine, sleepy a bit, but no pain or swelling.

my experience isn't the norm.If a tooth is loose and you can extract it yourself, then I see no reason why you would need an oral surgeon.

at that time it was impacted and only partially through the skin and bone.Yeah but your dentist? He does not want to extract an external wisdom tooth?

I'm waiting for Joey's jaw infection report
Years ago I had a festering wound on my jawline and the anti-bacterial lotions the doctor subscribed did nothing. So after a few weeks of leaking pus i grabbed a syringe filled it with pure alcohol, stuck it in the scab and emptied the contents in the wound.
Stopped the infection straight away and the wound healed up a week or so later.
Sometimes doctors are full of it!

Is KM really a dentist? Even if he really is he's wrong to think I'll get an infection. Not everyone needs medication for everything.

If you have a root remnant it will get infected sooner or later, so it should be removed.

Well I should have eluded. It's true that if it is only a very small remnant which is vital, you can leave it. If it is avital or luxated it should be removed. So an important question is: why did it break? Larger than 3 mm should be removed anyway.

it didn't break, it was very loose. As I said it had very little root to begin with. It came in way too late, and way too far in the back. By the time it popped out it was much higher than the rest of my teeth. The only problem I've had it the tooth that was in front is a little hot cold sensitive on the back. I've had that problem when I had my top molar removed. It stopped after a couple of weeks, its only been 8 days. My socket is growing in rapidly.

And you put that in your mouth? I don't know if I could stomach that.
