is it cause the teeth were pushed up 2 far 4 spacers/braces or what?
Why do ppl get teeth pulled when they get braces?
well tomorrow im getting my teeth pulled tomorrow because of overcrowding. ihave an over bite so when the teeth get pulled the teeth will move back and be strait
Reply:Sometimes people have more teeth than can fit in their mouth and not be crooked. You can't line em up if there isn't room to line 'em up.
Reply:teeth are taken out to make some room for the rest of the teeth to fill in the spaces after the braces treatment.

stop worrying. Go back to your last question and read my answer....if ther'es just a little blood is ok.... put gauze in, bite down and LEAVE it there for 40 min....
stop poking around back there....! just bite, then take it out, then go to bed and check in AM....be sure to use old pillow case, tho', as a little blood may stain....
Reply:It's ok, give it time, your gums will heal.
Don't worry everyone goes through it.
Reply:How old are you? My mother had hers done recently and it was awful and painful for her (she's a 40+ smoker, she got a dry socket or at least an irritated nerve) but when I got mine done, it healed up after just a few days.
It's normal to bleed a little because you've just had a bone ripped out of your head (graphic, but true.) Take an advil, don't drink from straws or suck on anything (cigarettes, soup on a spoon, nada.) and wait it out. Better yet, if your dentist gave you drugs, take them and sleep it off. If by Tuesday you aren't feeling 100% better, call your dentist and see if he can schedule you a checkup to see why it's still acting up. If you're young, it should grow back fairly easily.
Reply:Try not to drink with a straw and eat liquids. Don't pull on the stitches and if it is bleeding too heavily you should give your dentist a call on the morning. Also try putting salt on warm water and just filling your mouth with it then just let go of it, don't gargle or swish it because it can disturb the clot and you want it to clot so it start healing put a new gauze on it and don't remove it for at least 6 hours, don't use any mouth wash at all because it can disturb he clot as well. I hope this heps you, I had mine done over 10 year ago but I'm a nurse.
Reply:call the oral surgeon that took out your wisdom teeth and ask them.
Reply:DR. SWANSON GAVE SOME EXCELLENT ADVISE. THESE ARE DISSOLVING SUTURES (STITCHES) AND IT'S OK IF SOME OF THEM COME OUT NOW.DON'T WORRY, IT'S ALL GOING TO BE FINE.

I just had 2 teeth pulled out and braces yesterday what can i eat?
my teeth are really sore and my gums are purple blueish. the dentist said i can't eat really cold or really hot foods. so can any onje help me. IM REALLY HUNGRY!!!!!
I just had 2 teeth pulled out and braces yesterday what can i eat?
warm soup and cracker, yogurt, jello, anything soft and mushy or liquid.
I ate only soup for the first week after io got my tooth pulled. Couldnt chew. It hurt too much to do anything more than swallow.
Reply:Soup is good. If you like cream of wheat can do that (make it watery enough.) Fruit smoothies is another. You may have to let it get room temp. though.
Reply:Pasta's, mashed potatoes, omelet, cooked Veggies like green beans, soups, soft breads and french fries . All hot things cool down to luke warm that is you best bet. Think soft too. Hoped this helped. Take care.

Im getting my wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow. my dentist is doing it and im going to be awake. does it hurt?
has anyone ever been awake and had their dentist removed their wisdom teeth. tell me your experience. did it hurt?
Im getting my wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow. my dentist is doing it and im going to be awake. does it hurt?
i got all my wisdom teeth pulled last month. when i got it pulled i was fully awake. however, my dentist numbed my gums and started pulling them teeth. my top wisdom teeth were the easier ones to get out. my bottom ones were more difficult because it was half way out and sideways. so they had to cut my gum an drill my teeth and take it apart piece by piece. eventually he got it all out. so that's the good news.
as for the pain, your gums will be numb. there will be A LOT of pressure on your bottom wisdom teeth. there was a lot of pressure when my dentist was trying to take mine out.
it depends on how your wisdom teeth is positioned as well. but i think overall, no matter what position their in, you will feel pressure. if you're in pain during the process, tell your dentist. i'm sure he'll give you more numbing solution.
afterwards, they will stuff the area with gauze pads. i didn't really like the gauze pad part. it was gross. then, if needed..your dentist will prescribe meds for the pain. they will also tell or give you a pamphlet on how to take care of gums that will be in the healing process.
listen to your ipod or mp3 player while he's pulling your teeth out. that's what i did. good luck.
Reply:No. You'll have novacaine, probably codeine too. I was eating pizza the same night mine came out.
Reply:No. Not at all and I have had two of them taken out. You don't need them, and they can only cause problems later. Get them out now. I took aspirin.
Reply:I had all 4 of mine removed at once, and it didn't hurt at all at the time (during the surgery, I mean), but it started hurting about 4 or 5 hours after the surgery and hurt bad for about 2 days after.
Reply:had mine done a few years ago, hurts like hell , get some pain killers for later
Reply:they will numb you up pretty good, but i would suggest you get put to sleep. One of my buddies was awake and he said after the surgery it took a long time for the codine to kick in. So it was suckin for him.
Reply:Yes, I was awake during that. It doesn't hurt during, but just stay relaxed or your neck will be really stiff. They pull and pull. The weirdest part is watching the dentist and his nurse put on their clear masks and come at you with what look like pliers. At least that is how it was for me. Close your eyes if you need to and stay relaxed. It hurts after. Tylenol PM and Chamomile tea work absolute wonders. You'll be fine and healed from the whole ordeal before you know it.
Reply:I was awake when my wisdom teeth were pulled. The novacaine shot they gave me to numb the area hurt, but that's the same as if you have a novacaine shot to have work done on a cavity or something.
When they pulled the teeth, my mouth was numb from the novacaine and I did not feel ANYthing at all. Honestly, I asked the dentist "When will you pull the first one?" (I had 3 to be pulled) and he grinned at me and said, "I already did the first one." I honestly didn't even feel a sensation of spressure or anything at all - I didn't realize he had done it. The novacaine shot is totally worth the sting!
Afterwords, when the novacaine wears off of course your mouth is sore, but really I felt like I got waa-aay more sympathy and ice cream than I deserved for such a small amount of pain. Hope your experience is as good! Don't stress about it; if your dentist knows what he is doing you ought to do great.
Reply:I just got my wisdom teeth pulled last friday, and i was awake for it as well. They said i would be out of it and not remember much, but i remember every second and ended up having a panic attack in the middle of it, though i thought it was an asthma attack. It didn't hurt, and i don't regret doing it that way now that its over. Do you have all 4? I did. My best friend got hers out Monday but she only had the top two and she was back at work Wednesday. She was put all the way out, and she was fine as well , but a little more nauseous. I am feeling pretty good by today, my right side still aches a little, but otherwise as long as i have my ibuprofen i am fine! don't sweat it, docs do this all the time and you will be fine. stock up on foods like cup of noodles and jello, and take your pills. the pain ones will make you sick if you don't eat so make sure you have something with them, and you'll be conked out for a couple days. have fun! good luck!
Reply:Ouch! It's right up there with having a baby. I hope you get some kind of pain med. Mine hurt later on also because I got "dry socket". Ask the dentist about this condition. Good luck!
Reply:i haven't had mine removed but I guess it looks worse than what it really is like. that's why I'm a chicken about having mine taken out. There's a lot of blood, pain, and the dentist has his whole mouth in your mouth, but if its really numb you should be ok. You'll just feel really strong pressure. After that take a lot of care!! and follow the instructions
Reply:i just had my out this tuesday.......doesn't hurt they numb u first. my advice is that if its still bleedin badly r worse than before after 4 hrs call ur doc asap.. n the pain well it depends on u....my right side doesn't hurt but my left side does...wait back to the dentist to get more 10 stiches because it was bleedin badly...also make sure u have ur dentist emergency number because who knows if u r gonna call him or her at midnight like me

Is getting your wisdom teeth pulled as bad as I think it is? I will survive right? lol?
Im 25 and my wisdom teeth are KILLING ME! They weren't really bothering me until this year and now the whole left side of my mouth is swollen and infected! Im just such a baby when it comes to vomit so being knocked out really freaks me out because of the stories I've heard. But I think they can give you a medicine for the nausea, right? And the anesthesia won't harm me will it? I dont smoke and Im pretty healthy...so am I just being over paranoid?

Good luck. It really isn't so bad.

it mite hurt
well according 2 ppl who have experienced it tht i no

but you should have gotten them removed when you were younger
it's more bearable

Having your teeth pulled is a fast and easy process. You'll get medication for the pain afterwards.
Reply:Don't worry, you'll be fine.
Reply:Relax it's not that bad. Just follow the instructions they give you. Don't eat before the anesthesia, etc. They knock you out for just a few minutes and it's over before you know it. Just follow the doctor's instructions and take it easy for a few days.

Reply:It's different for different people. Mine hurt like hell for two weeks, and I missed a week of work... my sister had hers done at the same time as mine, and was back at work the next day.
You will live though. :) I promise.
Reply:So long as you get put to sleep during the operation, it'll be okay. Don't worry about freaky stuff happening to you, even if it did, you won't remember it. The pain last a few days after words, but it's definetly not nearly as bad as you probably think it is.
Reply:Everyone is different, but for me, it was easy and relativly painless for the two above the gumline, but the two impacted really hurt and took a while to heal...good luck
Reply:First, are you going to an Oral Surgeon? If so, they are going to knock you out to take those teeth out. It is the best sleep you will ever have! My daughter had hers out a year ago and it was so totally a neat experience she said. She woke up, teeth gone, area was numbed so it wouldn't hurt when she woke up. Got her pain pills filled at Drugstore and everything was fine. Seriously, it is a very easy procedure and you really are in a twilight state. You don't remember a thing but apparently can respond to people around you. Be sure to schedule some time you can rest afterwards, for a couple of days at least.
Reply:A lot of times the medication doesn't cause nausea. I know that of all the times I've been put to sleep for various procedures (multiple times) I only experienced nausea once. The anesthesia won't harm you at all- otherwise millions of people wouldn't use it worldwide every day. The time after the wisdom teeth get pulled will be pretty uncomfortable, I hate to say. You can take medicines like Motrin to ease that pain. Once the procedure is finished though and you have fully recovered, you'll be so happy that you got them pulled because they will never cause you discomfort again.
Reply:I was freaked too but it wasn't that bad. They sedate you pretty lightly - the whole thing take about 1/2 hour is all - so nausea is unlikely. You'll pretty much sleep all day after and pain meds will take care of the rest for the next day or two. After that you won't need them.
I was terrified but it wasn't too bad.
Reply:the best thing u should do is get ur teeth checked fast. something serious could be happening. and i dont mean to scare u but on the news a few months ago, a little boy diedbecause he had an infected tooth. the dentist will take care of ya.
Reply:You'll be fine. There is medicine for the nausea - if you are predisposed to puke, let your dentist know ahead of time.
Themost important thing is to PAY ATTENTION TO THE POST_OP DIRECTIONS!
Really... don't suck anything (a straw, a sucker, etc...)
Don't eat popcorn.
Keep the area clean with the syringe they give you.
I healed in 2 weeks and did not have any problems beyond the initial soreness - I barely swelled.
Do eat Italian Ices - they taste great and control the swelling.
Reply:First your eyes will turn black then your cheeks will puff up like a chipmunk. Then your hair will fall out in big chunks and you will suffer from severe nose bleeds and horrendous headaches.
Just kidding! In about a week you will be just fine!! Just wont be able to eat much!

my friend had his wisdom teeht pulled out last year (15 years old) AND WOW HIS RIGHT SIDE OF THE FACE SWELLED UP SOOOOOO MUCH it was funny.
He looked like the guy from the goonies, lol but way funnier.
And yah, he told me it hurt, plus by looking at his face, you could tell it hurt...damn man i felt sorry for him, but yet it was still humorous.
Reply:i have had teeth pullen out by a dentist they give u something so u dont feel ur gums and ur teeth and pull it out by the time ur feeling in ur teeth come back there won't be anything but an irrating itch around ur gums
Reply:Yes they have medicine for they nausea and they dont have to give u anesthesia but no it wont harm u I just had 2 teeth cut out and was back at work the next day
Reply:I just got mine out on monday! Here's what happened to me:
Day 1: I woke up and threw up. I did not feel nauseous, but i threw up randomly throughout the day (my doctor said that only happens to one out of 200 people so i'm special) I kept ice on it all day and wold take 3 ibuprofens every 6 hours.
Day 2: I havent taken any of the prescription pain meds. My face only hurt when i moved it, it was a little swolen but i kept ice on it. Only took the ibuprofens.
Day 3+: totally fine. Barely hurts and i feel normal. I just eat (soft things) with my front teeth
Today (day 7): completely healed up and eat whatever. They give you a squirty thing to rinse out your mouth e2-3 times a day.
If you can avoid taking the pain meds, do it. It makes you get back on your feet a lot sooner. The pain was not really that bad unless you poke at your mouth.
Reply:The dentist broke my friends jaw.
Reply:Hi,
No need to worry. Have you discussed your questions with your dentist, surgeon?
I had mine out when i was 18 years old. It does hurt afterwards but it heals and gets better..
I am a very sensitive person when it comes to any type of drug.. and I have never had a problem with anesthesia. I have also had 8 other surgeries and the wisdom teeth removal was the easiest. I think when you are younger you heal faster.
I really think you need to talk to your doc about your concerns. He/she is the best able to tell you what you will be experiencing. Knowing before you go will lessen any kind of anxiety!
Good Luck!
Reply:get put out.. its the only way to go..... sleep thru it..
well worth the extra 3 or 400 bucks to get this done
Reply:OK here is how my experience was.. I was 17 in high school and I went into the chair. The doctor gave me a shot and the last thing I remembered was taking about my fish when all of a sudden I fell into a deep sleep. It felt like 5 minutes passed when the doctor woke me up and said, OK we're all done. I felt really drowsy and my dad drove me home. The ride was a blur. I fell asleep again for a few hours. They gave me vicodin to numb the pain, but the pain itself was not so horrible. I remember taking vicodin on an empty stomach-- now that hurt bad!
Honestly, I am 25 now and I think getting my belly button pierced was more painful than having my wisdom teeth pulled. Just make sure after you clean the holes with a syringe so you don't get an infection. Good luck!
Reply:I got mine out last December, and it wasn't too bad.
The type of anesthesia they used for me was conscious sedation. They just stuck something in my IV, and I don't remember barely any of it. I remember one little part: I heard a crack, which was my tooth, and I thought, "Ow, that hurts. I should scream." But I didn't because I couldn't really feel it hurt. No nausea whatsoever, anyway.
It took me a few days to recover. I was glad I did it over Christmas break, so I didn't have to worry about missing school. The painkillers did nothing for me. The ice was the best thing.
But it's okay.
Reply:I'm 15 and I'm supposed to get my wisdom teeth out by the end of May.
I was pretty scared so I asked my boss (who's like my dad) and he said his son's dentist told him that he needed them out or it would get worse, so he got them out and 3 months later it had gotten much worse. His son had to go back in and have part of the bone cut out and then repaired because it wasn't even the wisdom teeth that were giving him the problem, it was an infection in the gums.

Reply:I had the wisdom tooth on my right side pulled a few years ago. They just numbed it did their drilling while wide awake was good times. Unable to talk for a day slim fast and jello while waiting for mouth to heal. Lost 15 lbs so that was good part. I regret not getting the left pulled when they asked now I have to get that pulled and I been putting it off cause I have a job that requires me to talk a lot. So you will survive!! Though I do not trust those anesthesia that put you to sleep.

Reply:the best thing u should do is get ur teeth checked fast. something serious could be happening. and i dont mean to scare u but on the news a few months ago, a little boy diedbecause he had an infected tooth. the dentist will take care of ya.
Reply:You'll be fine. There is medicine for the nausea - if you are predisposed to puke, let your dentist know ahead of time.
Themost important thing is to PAY ATTENTION TO THE POST_OP DIRECTIONS!
Really... don't suck anything (a straw, a sucker, etc...)
Don't eat popcorn.
Keep the area clean with the syringe they give you.
I healed in 2 weeks and did not have any problems beyond the initial soreness - I barely swelled.
Do eat Italian Ices - they taste great and control the swelling.

my friend had his wisdom teeht pulled out last year (15 years old) AND WOW HIS RIGHT SIDE OF THE FACE SWELLED UP SOOOOOO MUCH it was funny.
He looked like the guy from the goonies, lol but way funnier.
And yah, he told me it hurt, plus by looking at his face, you could tell it hurt...damn man i felt sorry for him, but yet it was still humorous.
Reply:i have had teeth pullen out by a dentist they give u something so u dont feel ur gums and ur teeth and pull it out by the time ur feeling in ur teeth come back there won't be anything but an irrating itch around ur gums
Reply:Yes they have medicine for they nausea and they dont have to give u anesthesia but no it wont harm u I just had 2 teeth cut out and was back at work the next day
Reply:I just got mine out on monday! Here's what happened to me:
Day 1: I woke up and threw up. I did not feel nauseous, but i threw up randomly throughout the day (my doctor said that only happens to one out of 200 people so i'm special) I kept ice on it all day and wold take 3 ibuprofens every 6 hours.
Day 2: I havent taken any of the prescription pain meds. My face only hurt when i moved it, it was a little swolen but i kept ice on it. Only took the ibuprofens.
Day 3+: totally fine. Barely hurts and i feel normal. I just eat (soft things) with my front teeth
Today (day 7): completely healed up and eat whatever. They give you a squirty thing to rinse out your mouth e2-3 times a day.
If you can avoid taking the pain meds, do it. It makes you get back on your feet a lot sooner. The pain was not really that bad unless you poke at your mouth.

Reply:Hi,
No need to worry. Have you discussed your questions with your dentist, surgeon?
I had mine out when i was 18 years old. It does hurt afterwards but it heals and gets better..
I am a very sensitive person when it comes to any type of drug.. and I have never had a problem with anesthesia. I have also had 8 other surgeries and the wisdom teeth removal was the easiest. I think when you are younger you heal faster.
I really think you need to talk to your doc about your concerns. He/she is the best able to tell you what you will be experiencing. Knowing before you go will lessen any kind of anxiety!
Good Luck!
Reply:get put out.. its the only way to go..... sleep thru it..
well worth the extra 3 or 400 bucks to get this done
Reply:OK here is how my experience was.. I was 17 in high school and I went into the chair. The doctor gave me a shot and the last thing I remembered was taking about my fish when all of a sudden I fell into a deep sleep. It felt like 5 minutes passed when the doctor woke me up and said, OK we're all done. I felt really drowsy and my dad drove me home. The ride was a blur. I fell asleep again for a few hours. They gave me vicodin to numb the pain, but the pain itself was not so horrible. I remember taking vicodin on an empty stomach-- now that hurt bad!
Honestly, I am 25 now and I think getting my belly button pierced was more painful than having my wisdom teeth pulled. Just make sure after you clean the holes with a syringe so you don't get an infection. Good luck!
Reply:I got mine out last December, and it wasn't too bad.
The type of anesthesia they used for me was conscious sedation. They just stuck something in my IV, and I don't remember barely any of it. I remember one little part: I heard a crack, which was my tooth, and I thought, "Ow, that hurts. I should scream." But I didn't because I couldn't really feel it hurt. No nausea whatsoever, anyway.
It took me a few days to recover. I was glad I did it over Christmas break, so I didn't have to worry about missing school. The painkillers did nothing for me. The ice was the best thing.
But it's okay.
Reply:I'm 15 and I'm supposed to get my wisdom teeth out by the end of May.
I was pretty scared so I asked my boss (who's like my dad) and he said his son's dentist told him that he needed them out or it would get worse, so he got them out and 3 months later it had gotten much worse. His son had to go back in and have part of the bone cut out and then repaired because it wasn't even the wisdom teeth that were giving him the problem, it was an infection in the gums.

Reply:I had the wisdom tooth on my right side pulled a few years ago. They just numbed it did their drilling while wide awake was good times. Unable to talk for a day slim fast and jello while waiting for mouth to heal. Lost 15 lbs so that was good part. I regret not getting the left pulled when they asked now I have to get that pulled and I been putting it off cause I have a job that requires me to talk a lot. So you will survive!! Though I do not trust those anesthesia that put you to sleep.

If I have 4 teeth pulled (back 3 bottom right and back 1 top right) will I end up with the sunken cheek look?
I'm going to have it done regardless because I've just freakin' tired of toothaches. But I don't have the money for a partial right now and I'm hoping I don't end up looking like some druggie whose teeth have rotted out of her head - you know the look. lol

You may have some sinking of the cheek over time, but I suspect it won't be quite that obvious if you still have some upper teeth left. Do try to get the partial sooner rather than later because once the teeth are out the jaw bone will start to slowly shrink in that area since there are no teeth. I would expect that the partial would be smaller (less bulky) if it was done sooner... Good luck!

Would I need to get my wisdom teeth pulled before i get braces again?
I had braces when i was like 6th-8th grade now my teeth are crooked again probably because of my 4 wisdom teeth coming in and now i need braces again...I've been told i needed to get the wisdom teeth removed about 4 yrs ago but decided not to b/c of cost (i have no insurance) and the fact that the denist wanted to put me to sleep to do it..what a sick freak! Yes, I have a fear of aneneisa (sp?)

Hold on to your wisdom teeth until you get some of it in your brains!
Reply:Only your dentist can make this decision for you. Everyone's mouth is different, and every case in orthodontics is different as well. As for anesthesia, it's a relatively small price to pay for a healthy, pain-free, and attractive smile!
Reply:I got braces as an adult, and I too was recommended to have my wisdom teeth out. Mine were impacted so I was happy to be put under general anesthesia!
Go for it!
