Does your dentist realize fillings go in your mouth?MMike said:

The dentist was already a little busy with his mouth.
:evil:
lol. Fillings are no fun. 
But its amusing to try and eat/drink when you can't control your mouth enough to make suction on a straw.

Argh... Luckily no cavaties or fillings for me. But, Wisdom teeth are a bit past due... So I got that goin for me. The dentist isnt that bad... I dont understand why they try and keep conversation while your mouth is spread open. Its not like you can actually produce understandable words, when they are sticking mirrors and scraper things all in your grill.
Fillings are easy !
I had the start of my Implat on #19 Yesterday , See GMT for more details but here is the tooth they Pulled , the 2 pieces of the gold crown abd the roots , that Black/red spot in the middle of of the root on the right is where the infection was.

The dude gave me 12-15 shots of novacain and about 1/2 way thru he looks at me & asked you alright? I said it hurts, so another 6 or so shots more!!!

dentist: your gums are bleeding, you need to floss more.
me: no, you need to not poke my gums with a sharp piece of metal.
stupid dentist.

Dude! Have em knock you out. 18+ shots in the mouth!douglas said:
I hate the dentist. I hate them all! Of course I have ever only had 5 cavities in my life. Four of them were in my baby teeth that eventually fell out. Currently I have one little filling in one tooth. Wisdom teeth came in straight and not impacted. I did break a tooth once and had that fixed. I hate the dentist and so I brush my teeth a lot. Just thought I would put that out there to annoy all of you with bad teeth.
FVCK! looking at the pic of that busted tooth is making mine ache

How do you think it Makes me feel!!! I have stiches where that used to be and my mouth is still swollen.
Also it wasn't broken, he cut it in half to get it out
yeah I saw your post about that the other day. always lots of fun when things don't go like they are suppose to.H8R said:
I must say when having an implant done some strange things go on. this is my 2nd , I had my first one done on #9 ( top front ) about 6 years ago , really sounds weird when the dentist ask the nurse for a screwdriver !
I probably have to go the partial denture route. My insurance would never cover implants, and too much time has passed get them anyways.splat said:
When all is said and done by next year it will be:
10 total extractions, including wisdom teeth, 2 of which I was put under for.
3 crowns.
6 teeth artificially replaced.
Ouch.
splat said:
That would have been it, I woulda gotten up and left!
WOW , you go me beat !H8R said:
5 extractions , 5 crowns and 1 Implant , 1 Implant in Progress
and My insurance doesn't cover implants either
I'm paying for it all out of Pocket $ 5000 each!

The Part of the implant actually uses a set screw , and they use a torque screw driver too , so they don't over tighten it .
So I decided to resurect this thread instead of starting a new one.
today was phase 2 , actually putting the implant in. after Letting the bone heal from the bone graft , , next they Cut the gums open and then drilled a pilot hole, of 4.5 MM
then he putthe implant ( which is 5 MM ) on the end of the drill and power drilled it in. he could only get it half way in like that , because of my Bone density being very high ( that is a good thing ). so next I hear click, click click , and he says yes I'm using a ratchet , he was wratrecting it line a Bolt . felt really strange, Now this has to heal for 4-6 months before they can put the permenant tooth on it.
