Wisdom teeth removed without being sedated?
I'm deathly afriad of being sedated (put to sleep) and I may need to have my wisdom teeth removed soon. None of them are impacted, they've all almost fully grown in like my other teeth. Have any of you ever had any wisdom teeth extracted on just local anaesthesia and not had to be put to sleep? I have a pretty high threshhold for pain, and I don't mind the gore at all (had teeth pulled before & root canal done while awake). But everyone tells me to get put to sleep for my wisdom teeth for some reason. I think I'd rather just let the dentist punch me in the face as hard as he could to knock me out!
Wisdom teeth removed without being sedated?
hey u dont have to put to sleep to go for any tooth extraction ( even wisdom tooth ) its just ur tooth which shud be sedated .... if local anesthisa can do the job then why to go for general ...we put the patient to sleep only when the surgery has to be done to a special patient(handicap pt.)otherwise NO NEED ...n about the pain ... it varies from patient to patient ... few complain of pain n few dnt after the extraction of wisdom tooth ... but analgesic can do wonders .... n ur dental surgeon will definately prescribe u the medicine after surgery ...so dont worry ... no get ur wisdom extracted while u r awake .. !
Wisdom teeth removed without being sedated?
I have had one wisdom tooth removed. It was fully erupted. I was not knocked out, just the regular local shot. The pain really kicks in later in the day when the shot has worn off and you have a gaping hole in your mouth. But, if the doctor gives you a script for pain killers have it filled before the numbness wears off. You'll be fine being awake.
