Painful teeth

~
On the 19th they pulled all the top teeth and two on the bottom. They had expected the procedure to take about 40 minutes...but because my teeth were in such bad shape it ended up taking almost a hour and a half! The roots of 2 of my teeth extended into the sinus cavity and they had to put stitches in...they are hopeful that as the gum heals it will close the holes. I came home, took a pain pill and slept for 4 hours straight....woke up long enough to drink the broth of a can of chicken soup, take another pain pill and go back to sleep.

The next day I went back for a post-op checkup and they said things look pretty good....but of course they took the dentures out several times and by the end of the appointment I wished I had brought a pain pill with me....needless to say when I came home I took a pain pill and went back to bed.

Eating is still very painful and so I am mostly eating just soup & applesauce. I am getting quite frustrated. It has been several days and I didn't expect it to still be this painful.

Ironic

~
I have an appointment on Wednesday with the oral surgeon and I am having all my top teeth extracted....that is probably why I found the 'Ads by Google' at the left advertising tooth extractions to be so ironic.

Dentist

~

I really hate going to the dentist...but yesterday another tooth broke so I don't think I can put it off any longer. I called to schedule an appointment but they can't get me in until November 12th. So far it isn't too painful....it is more like a dull ache. Eating is going to be interesting tho'. I am afraid to eat anything more than soup and soft foods like pasta or eggs.
