I had them out. Honestly afterwords you're sore as a mother ****er.
I have trypanophobia (fear of hyperdermic needles [shots, Ivs etc]) so the worst part for me was the IV. It was the first one I have ever had in my entire life (that I can remember, Infancy I'm not counting) and I had a huge ****ing panic attack and drew and locked my arms up and clamped my mouth shut. Basically primal instinct took over and I did everything in my power to protect myself. They forced my arms down, got the IV in (which felt like a really really really bad pinch) and then as I opened my mouth they went to place a bite block (so your mouth doesn't close on their hands/tools) I tired refusing it, but then I remember blackness. I passed out. Then I woke up and it was over.
The painkillers are legit. No school *(I was 17/18 when this happened, I'm 19 now)* for about a week and a half, and LIGHT duty at work (if you lift heavy stuff, you'll bust your stitches in your mouth open and yeah..it's not good, they'l give you a doctors note for extremely light duty for work, just ask them if you need one), and yeah. Soft foods are your friend, and slurpees are ****ing bitchin. You'll want to marry a ****ing slurpee machine afterwords.
That's my experience. All of which is 100% true. I wish you luck my friend. Try not to be nervous. If you're extremely nervous, you can get some Xanax to help you relax. My dentists and rents (I ****ing hate my step dad...****ing cop douche) refused Xanax for me. So yeah.
Thanks bro :y:
My parents got me a lot of soft foods haha
Right now my best friends are ice cream and jello. God I love jello :carling:
and surprisingly, they didn't give me stitches. It's just 4 big holes in my mouth as if
my teeth fell out when I was younger. Feels really wierd though.
And for the sedation, it literally worked in like 20 seconds from when he put it in. It was crazy lol
I literally felt like I closed my eyes then woke up 5 seconds later with the gauze in my mouth. I remember I was seeing double of everything in front of me. Freaky stuff ha
