I had a lower molar go bad a month ago. I paced the floor on and off for a month while I waited for an appointment at the dental college. Turns out they didn't have time to pull it, so a week later I went to a general dentist who said that even though I finished a script of amox, I still needed cleocin as the tooth was infected.
Finished all my meds and when he gave me the numb shots they didn't really work. I noticed after the first set that the tooth started hurting a little like the toothache I had been having. After second set he wiggled the tooth and I could tell deep inside the tooth was still sore. So he drilled a hole while I screamed and cussed like a sailor, I was so embarrassed afterwards. I'm telling you it was all I could do to keep from socking him in the jaw, it hurt so very bad till he shot the nerve directly.
After all of this terrible pain he took the clamp and went " bing" and it was over. Thank God it was over. My jaw is still very soar and now I would like to know why this happened? I have had many root canals and way too many fillings. Every other time I had pullers I was a sleep. Is this my only option? Will I need to be knocked out for every tooth I need pulled? No one should experience this pain! It was traumatic and even the next day I cried at the drop of a hat from the trauma. I was so saddened by this experience and my hubby said the dentist didn't look like he was enjoying it either. He said he was shaking. Lol
Thanks for listening to me whine lol
