Hey, I can sympathize with you. I had a tooth pulled two weeks ago. I was in pain for about a month, and it’s not a good place to be…

Go, my blackened friend, to the dentist.

I had frequent toothaches, then I had my wisdom teeth removed. Would have had them pulled sooner if I had had insurance. I had them totally knock me out, first time I ever experienced that. I think I was kicking when I finally woke up and I believe the nurse was holding my legs down. I think that's interesting. I never wake up kicking and screaming, so I wonder if the knock-out drug affects us differently than regular sleep.

I should just get all my teeth yanked out and switch to dentures.

I have some bad teeth in the back, mostly from lack of calcium after having a baby...then I ate ice because I had iron deficiency...I had one pulled a few weeks ago and it only took 2 minutes!!!! Find a good dentist. I need about two more pulled and will be going back soon. Take my word for it, you will feel much better if you go to the dentist and just face the music.

Thanks Spook for showing why I never wanted to go into dentistry.

Completely sideways, man
soak a small bit of a cotton ball in clove oil. place directly on the painful tooth. it works wonders. even if you buy over the counter toothache pain stuff, it's usually in a clove oil base.

Yeah, Toothaches Suck

- but what sucks even more is that it costs $200 to get one pulled and $2,000 to get one fixed.

That's what really sucks.

Absolutely! Fantastic stuff.

When I got a serious case of dry socket after having my wisdom teeth pulled, my dentist packed the socket with a mixture of clove oil--sweet relief!
