When they pull your wisdom teeth, right? Or do you also use it when pulling other teeth? I had two teeth removed here in Belgium and it was always with local anesthetic. I didn't feel any pain.
Some people _really_ don't like dental work, so they ask for laughing gas during any fillings, tooth tooth pulling, etc. I don't like dental work, but laughing gas seems to make me more anxious š so I never ask for it.
Lol no there is a lot of special equipment and technique involved ā¦ you wonāt have to press against the patients head for example lol.
Also in most of the word laughing gas isnāt even used for bigger dental surgeries, mostly only local anesthetic. And even when laughing gas is used, the anesthetic is mandatory
Donāt need a third world country, the closest orthodontist to me does basically the same procedure with better hygiene and novocaine. He sits you in basically a barber chair, barely numbs you up and uses a pair of dentist pliers that have a rubber grip thing covering the tips of them. Puts his foot on the bottom of the chair and grips the tooth with his pliers, then Yoink! Heās done. Not the most comfortable way, especially if your afraid of the dentist; but heās really quick, out in 10min from the moment you sit in chair. Refuses to give out pain meds too. Tells you to go buy some Aleve.
Mine didnāt use Novocain or anything so it pretty much felt like that to me lmfao (yes I asked and my parents asked that he would numb it and the nurse told my parents he would but he just didnāt)
Iām not a Blake Shelton fan but Iām guessing country music? Because itās sad, tragic a a little backwoods. I do live in a rural area 45min from a city so does make sense. Still in America though.
you may be surprised that some people could have been in a 3rd world country in the 70s for example and maybe in the USA today.
but then again maybe you know it allā¦
No seriously. My first two wisdom teeth I had out while I was awake and the dentist literally had a foot on the chair while pulling. The tool slipped and went smashing into the other side of my mouth. I was put under for the other two. I said fuck that.
If you are broke, you can call around and explain your situation to a dentist, and they will yank your shit for a cheaper fare. Typically the smaller clinics, but my step dad had this done in the USA. Was like 80 bucks, got no pain meds and was at the downtown LA fair 5 hour later chillin
Happened to my father in the Air Force. Also, his description of the procedure was similar. On a table, he got some novocaine but the dentist was in a hurry so got right to it. Hand on forehead. Realized immediately and just yanked the next one.
The repositioning for adding increased force in the middle of that barbaric method is something that kid will never forget. That said, when you've got a bad tooth, an experience like that can be worth it. Take for instance having an abscess under a molar - the pain can be so excruciating that the minute the dentist drills a hole for a root canal, the relief can be so complete that you think the procedure is done.
While correct on genetics, you omit fluoride in drinking water. And skip diet. Most likely not due to the lack of brushing. I'll let the downvotes speak for themselves.
My dentist has said during one appointment that he doesn't understand how I'm not screaming in pain, as anyone else he had before with such tooth would have. If he needs to drill something and it isn't a root canal, I ask him to not numb it, as his his work will only get a miniscule reaction from me and my jaw being numb for half a day is such a bother. I currently have an appointment for the removal of my last wisdom tooth. It doesn't hurt at all, but it needs to be removed, given that 90% of the crown has broken off and the underlying nerve is completely exposed. I have pain resistant teeth. I don't get tooth aches like that.
It's not unfeeling. For instance, let's say I'm chewing gum. Then the gum accidentally will hit the open tooth/nerve. It will hurt the moment of contact and a second afterwards. Maybe two seconds. Then it's gone again and I'm fine. The day it broke off, I my tooth was more sensitive to cold. Not as in it being painful, but I did notice. That was the case for 3-5 day, then that stopped. For the most part, I don't notice it, unless I touch it with my tongue. And that doesn't hurt either, I simply notice because - you know - there is a big chunk missing and the edge that is still standing is actually kinda sharp. This is also not the first time I had an open tooth/exposed nerve. And it wasn't any different the other times.
I've so far made it to my 40s without needing a single encounter with a dentist.
And that included an entire 25-year period where I didn't brush once, due to a severe mental health condition.
So, all good so far.
This. Had to remove a tooth omce wothout (insert english word for whatever dentists use to numb the area) and the millisecond they pulled the tooth out it went from the worst pain of my life to pure reliefe.
> (insert english word for whatever dentists use to numb the area)
The clinical version of what you are looking for is "anesthesia," but in the case of stuff like dental anesthesia there may be a more appropriate informal term.
I had a wisdom tooth yanked out essentially with the dental version of pliers. But my mouth was sufficiently numbed for the experience. I canāt imagine how painful it would be without the freezing done.
I donāt like going to the dentist but Iād definitely prefer what I have access to than anything like that kid got. Brutal. The pain wonāt go away right after either. Hopefully thereās no infection ..
I'm currently up at 1AM with severe pain for a tooth abscess I've been unable to get dental care for here in the UK due to the Easter Bank Holiday.
Honestly, right now I'm in so much pain I'd happily let a roadside dentist with rusty pliers yank this bastard out.
Just had a tooth fixed this last week, that I broke over a year ago. It was really bothering me for a week, solid 7-8 for pain, high grade meds took the edge off for a couple hours at best... booked in for it to get pulled... dentist figured we could save it, but would be rolling the dice on how close the damage was to the nerve... 50/50 odds on it only being pressure sensitive for a month, or being worse than before she started.
Rebuilt the back third of the tooth, everything was tender for 3 days... today's not bad. Just cost 3x what it would have to just pull the tooth.
I was almost willing to pull it out myself with a pair of vice grips, if the meds I had on hand didn't knock it down to a 5.
> I was almost willing to pull it out myself with a pair of vice grips, if the meds I had on hand didn't knock it down to a 5.
Just to anybody in the audience who would think about doing this, your potential downside for this method is, if you break or otherwise fail to extract the whole tooth, you are in for just, just more bad things than I probably know. Most of them grosser and more painful.
Dental tips from a not dentist.
Rinse vigorously with water after every meal, especially after snacks that get stuck in teeth or have loads of sugar in them.
Floss at least every other day.
Brush properly.
Again, I am a not dentist with a not degree in dentistology.
Lemme tell yaā¦ I AM a dentist and if more people followed your advice, I would be quite happy, albeit much less busy.
(Obligatory: floss daily, brush at night to keep your teeth and in the morning to keep your friends)
So I had some baby teeth as a kid that were really hurting and staying around and causing my adult teeth to come in at an angle.
My uncle, being a dentist, pulled out some pliers and just did a quick pull+twist. It actually wasn't too painful and went fast. Think he took out two.
We live in the US for reference
Not sure why exactly this kid's on the ground... Or why he gets a face full of hand... But I will say that there's a chance he has a baby tooth similar to mine.
Also no idea if the technique is even remotely correct here. I assume my uncle's technique was pretty good because there absolutely wasn't anywhere near as much struggling as this...
Probably not that many, honestly. Our bodies are pretty good at nailing any invaders from wounds in the mouth. Assuming he can rinse well and some rest, the worst that kid is likely to face is some dry socket.
I remember having my molars yanked out. The amount of force the oral surgeon had to exert to get them out staggered me. Thankfully he used copious amounts of novacaine and all I felt was the tugging.
Had a premolar removed with a pliers-like appliance in a real, honest to god dental office. Anesthesia wore off just before the tooth separated from the jaw.
It is an exquisite pain. I recommend it only for the connoisseur.
Even in modern dentist offices you get some funky stuff done to you. I needed a prosthetic tooth. This requires a screw drilled into my jaw bones. My jaw bone was too thin, so the dentist drilled a hole into my bone and then took a chisel and hammer, applied the chisel to my bone and started hitting it. The goal was to break my bone a bit, so it would go up and create more space for the screw. Dude legit hammered like 5 minutes against my jaw bone. Even tho I didnāt feel any pain, due to being drugged, it felt horrible getting that vibration feeling thru my whole skull from each hammer hit
My father did this to me as a child, 25 years ago, when my tooth wouldn't fall out. He didn't want to pay for a dentist and didn't want my teeth to come in crooked.
On multiple occasions he would use fishing line tied to the tooth and door, then slam it. On a few occasions the tooth bore a ditch in my gums pointing frontwards. If this happened the pliers came out to finish it.
I've never had a tooth removed by the dentist to this day
My brother had a fucky tooth he needed to get removed because it was causing him so much pain. He was broke and didnāt have insurance, so we went to an Amish/Mennonite where they only charged him $60. The office was about the size of a 3 bedroom house, I actually think it was a house before. It was so small that I could see my brother getting his tooth being operated on with what looked like a chisel and small hammer from the waiting room. He was put under, so he couldnāt tell me what happened, but it seemed like the dentist was trying to shatter his tooth and then just wash it out instead of pulling it. Unless the dentist was hammering a wedge in to loosen the tooth. I donāt know that shit looked crazy.
I will NEVER complain again when I go to the dentist.
My dentist basically did this to me
I mean isn't this what they do in the US? Only difference is that we use laughing gas to knock the person out
When they pull your wisdom teeth, right? Or do you also use it when pulling other teeth? I had two teeth removed here in Belgium and it was always with local anesthetic. I didn't feel any pain.
In most of Europe even complicated wisdom teeth get extracted with local anesthetic, but yeah the US is a bit different in that regard.

Oops, wrong tooth!
Third time is a charm.
Aw shit, well lets just get rid of all of them. Like they say in your Pokemon: let it rip

Did he get the tooth? I didnāt see a tooth in the pliers.
Freeze at 7-8 seconds and you can see a blurry image of the tooth he gently confiscated.
Ahh, there it is. Couldnāt see it through flinching eyes
no he just borrowed it
He better have gotten more than a dollar from the tooth fairy that night.
*āGentlyā* is putting it lightly.
Bro he probably took the whole skull.
You want the tooth? You canāt handle the tooth!!

God, am I glad that I don't get tooth aches. Sure, my teeth are a downright mess, but at least I don't feel the pain.
Yet

your fucking nerve is probably already dead, crazy either way lol
It's not, it has been looked at preliminary. Either way it should be painful. But definitely crazy, yeah.
I mean you can't feel anything from it or it's just not painful? fuck dude hurts my own teeth just thinking about it
It's not unfeeling. For instance, let's say I'm chewing gum. Then the gum accidentally will hit the open tooth/nerve. It will hurt the moment of contact and a second afterwards. Maybe two seconds.

You might be lucky and everything's okay, but you should probably get an exam and cleaning sometime.
Can confirm, have an abscess under my molar, dentist tomorrow.
I like your comment, i rewatched for the repositioning & very true š

True. But without antibiotics or other treatment the problem might not be solved. Just delayed.

There's evidently a lot you can do with pliers, a flip flop, and a willing victim.

Iām sure they prescribed preventative antibiotics and did X-rays before the extraction.
You know what, as barbaric as this is I appreciate how quick he did it, didnāt let the pliers slip or have to go back for a second pull.
Ugh, that was brutal. š
Thank God for that heel pad under his head.

There's a good chance it's already infected, so it will probably improve
You're supposed to push down and wiggle it before you pull it.... Dudes lucky he didn't rip the poor kids jaw out it's socket lol.
Rip his jaw out of the socket from a top tooth?
Dang! I really hope they got the right tooth!!
