Nothing can be so painful than a tooth getting extracted- a part of you ever since you remember! Yes???
NOOOO!
It is not that bad after all.
Listen to my story -
The D -day of my pre-molar tooth had come. It had to be removed.
The dentist made me sit on the throne (the dental chair). Gave me a local anesthesia - a shot one on the gums above the premolar and one shot under it. The second one was a little painful. Though the pain was not felt at all after a couple of seconds. One side of my eye started feeling a little numb once the affect of the shot was taking over.
I relaxed on the throne for the next 10 minutes or so as the dentist got busy talking to my husband. He came, he saw and pulled. It was all over even before I realized.
My tooth was out. He put a huge cotton in my mouth.
I walked back home. Took out the cotton, had a cup of ice-cream, drank some cold water and I was all set for the day. Had curd rice for dinner and slept early.
The next day, I brushed very carefully. Had a cup of milk. Had a light and soft breakfast. And that was it.
Simple, isnt it? To top it all I have another extraction coming up sometime soon!
