Hello,
I (like many here) have a terrible fear of the dentist which made me not go for about 15 years. I finally went and started a recovery plan. Part 1 was a deep cleaning of all 4 quads, Part 2 was two crowns and now Part 3 is the extraction of 4 wisdom teeth.
Needless to say im pretty scared. They said that the one on my lower right will have some bone come out with it and that they will put some kind of powder in to help heal or something like that. Ive read a million posts on this board now and cant find a single person that has gone through that. Can someone tell me more about that? Im freaking out about it.
Also I noticed that a lot of people here that get IV are awake for some of it. is that true?? i thought it was supposed to put me completely out. maybe im getting general anesthesia instead? they said i would be completely unconscious. i dont know what the difference is.
They say that each one of my wisdom teeth actually require a slightly different way of extraction with the bottom right being the worst.
Any comments would be very welcome.
thanks!
