Not really asking for advice, but I really don't know where else to put this thread, other than the garbage forum. So a few days ago I noticed a throbbing in my jaw. Didn't think about it until it happened a few more times. Now it's happening about once every six to eight hours. I get this dull throbbing ache, pulsing at the speed of my heart rate for like three to five beats, then it goes away. When I tried to isolate the area the next time it happened, i focused on a tooth that has two fillings. One giant silver/mercury amalgam filling on the chewing surface and one little one on the outside side. It's the 1st Molar, on the bottom right hand side, or number 30 in the chart located here: http://www.aboutcosmeticdentistry.com/resources/tooth_chart.htmlI have a dentist appointment next month and thought I should wait it out until then, but I remembered that I had a filling the same size replaced a few years back. About ten years ago my stupid health care plan gave me few options of dentists to choose from. The first dentist on the list decided I needed to have some fillings replaced, so they made the holes bigger and filled them with silver/mercury amalgam. My current dentist knows of these clowns and shakes his head whenever he sees their former patients. "Too big a hole to fill with silver," he says as he shakes his head. Because it was too big, the center cracked ever so slightly and stuff was percolating in in tiny amounts. The clowns who worked on me ten years ago have this setup where they have like 20 people in the waiting room and they do a sort of production line. Shortly thereafter I switched providers and went to a different dentist before that guy retired and I hooked up with this guy, just down the street from me. So, I called the office and they said the earliest they could get me in was Friday, but that they would put me on the emergency list, which means they're going to call me on Friday and tell me to come in 15 minutes earlier than my scheduled time. I have not had a new cavity filled since like, forever. And the last filling I had held out for years until the production-line clowns said something was wrong with it removed it and it's now causing me problems. Now that I recall, that was my very first visit with them, for a cleaning? "Hi, welcome, new? Fill out this paperwork and let's see how much unnecessary work we can bill your insurance company for this visit. You're number 47 . . . " All I have to say is he better fill my gums with the good stuff. The last time we did this I nearly jumped out of my chair the moment he started drilling. He said he would remember for the next time, which he said would be in the next few years since my other tooth suffers from the same shoddy work as the one he fixed . . . a few years ago. He was right. Though I hate germs, I really hate needles even more. I would make a piss-poor junkie. You should be more like Cantrip. Twitchy: "I pulled a Cantrip . . ." GivePeaceAChance: "If the Tempest had nipples, I'd pinch that shit." Xylicon: "I'm about to deliver my [Richard] in your face for posting that stupid shit. " WDF?: "He keeps reaming me... night after night... I'm rather sore." GivePeaceAChance: "OMG MY NIPS ARE HARD" llenta: "cantrip, you fail!!!" Filliam H. Muffman: "i'm on top of dick"

I've gone to a series of crap dentists and have nothing but hate for the entire profession. My current dentist does not speak english very well and her assistants translate for her but in a really asshole way that shows they think they are better than her because they are white and she isnt. I once had a dentist drop an instrument on the ground and then pick it up and try to put it in my mouth. I had another dentist accidently knock a tooth out once. I'm also not very sensitive to the numbing shit so most of the time they load me to the limit and then it still hurts like a motherfucker until an hour later when I can't feel shit anymore but by then it doesnt matter.

I h8 dentists. I had all my wisdom teeth removed when i was 19 the dentist i went to was going on vacation for 2 weeks right after he finished me. That day he was taking out top and bottom left side and when he came back in 2 weeks he was gonna do the right side. It was a disaster from start to finish, he accidentally sliced my gums by slipping from wisdom tooth to the front of my mouth. He took my wisdom teeth out and sent me on my way. I got home and realized the novacaine was wearing off and i was in tears, i called the dentist but he was gone, i was told though, that yes he forgot to give me a pain killer prescription, and to call another dentist. So i call another dentist get a pain killer prescription. Now my left cheek swells up so huge you cannot even see my ears, my roommate actually got hers taken out the same day and she looked fine. Im walking around drooling and unable to talk. 2 weeks later ya he took out my other 2 wisdom teeth, that went better except for this. Right after i was done there i went to work on an Island resort in the middle of Lake of the Woods for the summer about a month in im feeling some super pain where my wisdom teeth were on my right side and a real gross disgusting smell coming from my mouth. Luckily a Dr who also owned a float plane, was spending the weekend, he called back to mainland and had it sent out to me and flew me to his dentist. So disgusting, my dentist had stitched up my wisdom tooth hole packed with gauze and it had started to rot in there =/ Now im scared of the dentist because i still have a baby tooth and they want to pull it out and hook wires to my new tooth to pull it down =/ So i keep going to different dentists until they discover the baby tooth then i dont go see them again.

Sue the dentists he does not know what the hell he was doing. Put him out of biz so he cant do it to other people. You should have paid some one off the streets they could have done a better job at it. When i was younger i was having some of my teeth worked on, i was like 7 i think, i was having a tooth filled in and and the dumb ass never gave me anything before he started then he put ice cold water on my roots and i was screamed and tried to get away from him and he was yelling at me for it. and after he was done he told my grandmother i was bad and would not sit still. I didn't say anything i just wanted to get out of there. After we got back home i told my grandmother everything that happened and i never went back to him again then my grandmother went atfer him for what he did. Well it turns out i was not the first person he had done this to and got shut done for good.

That sucks about you guys' crappy dentist experiences and the pain, the pain. Ouch. I had my wisdom teeth taken out, unexpectedly, when I came home from college for winter break my first year. My pop knew I hated needles so he took me in for what was supposed to be a "consultation" with the actual event happening some other time. I went with him because I was still on his insurance. We were referred to an oral surgeon, a pretty red-headed woman, late 20s I would say with some really cute assistants. So she talked to me and then said I could go with the assistants and we would do it right then and it would be over in like twenty minutes. WTF? No, that wasn't the plan. No needles! Anyway, they hooked me up to an IV and told me to count backwards. I had wanted to wear a tape recorder as I wanted to record the time I would be unconscious because I had never been put under before. Only, the small tape recorder was in my bag, in the car, and I didn't have time to get it since they whisked me to the operating table immediately after the "consultation." So I get to counting backwards from 100 to maybe 35 or so and was just about to say that the anaesthetic wasn't working when the entire room went sideways. a high-pitched hum entered my ears and I started to feel really really good. So I say to them, high as a kite, "So, what are you ladies doing after the operassssshhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiooooooooooo-" I then woke up to my father pushing me out the front door of the building and into the car. -blank space, silence- I then remember sticking my head out the window yelling something like, "Woo-hoo!" to passing cars, mouth jammed with gauze and cotton, with my dad kinda laughing and yelling at me to stick my head back inside the car while he grabbed at my shirt. -Blank space, silence- I then remember getting to the front door of the house, and forgetting how to open it, possibly singing some silly song about opening a door . . . -Blank space, silence- I then remember needing to get up out of my bed, doing so, then stumbling to the bathroom and puking congealed blood. See, what those bitches neglected to tell me was that I would swallow a shitload of blood and that my body would not like that. Anyway, I was fine in the pain department. I then went back to school the next day and was really really hungry, but I couldn't chew. So I decided I wanted a Big Mac and Fries and I was going to put them in the blender and drink my meal. I went to McDonald's down the street from me, and grabbed a Big Mac Value Meal with a shake. I went to my kitchen where I kept my blender, because OCD people need their shit to be in the right place at all times, only it wasn't there. Then I had a vague recollection that my old roommate borrowed it right before I went home. He was going to throw a going away party and asked to borrow it for the night. So I called him, "Duwde, wherr's my bwender?" "What? What's wrong with your voice?" "I hawd my visdomn tweeth twaken out. I cwan't eeweet. I wan two get mwy bwender back frumme yeuwe swo i cwan bwrend a Bwic Mwac anwnd dwink it." "Uh, well, that's going to be a problem. See, Stacy borrowed the decanter from me because hers broke, but the lid is with Abby and the base is with Mark, and they're all gone for the break." "Vwut tha fuwck, dwude! I nweed it to eat my wunch. It's getting cwold. Bwitch, you fwucking owe me a newe brender, muwder-fuwcker. Youwe down't juws go awound givwing away peopowl's shwit like thawt. Fuwck!" So, I just gummed the fries and chopped up the burger and swallowed big chunks without chewing. I later found out that these three separate people, who had the three separate pieces of my prized blender, had graduated and had gone home permanently, with pieces of my blender! I remember now there was a reason I didn't want to live with those guys anymore. That bastard still owes me a blender. And I never did find out if those bitches sucked on my cock while I was asleep. One can only hope, right? Damn, I wish I had taped that tape recorder to my sock when I had the chance. You should be more like Cantrip. Twitchy: "I pulled a Cantrip . . ." GivePeaceAChance: "If the Tempest had nipples, I'd pinch that shit." Xylicon: "I'm about to deliver my [Richard] in your face for posting that stupid shit. " WDF?: "He keeps reaming me... night after night... I'm rather sore." GivePeaceAChance: "OMG MY NIPS ARE HARD" llenta: "cantrip, you fail!!!" Filliam H. Muffman: "i'm on top of dick"

Reading the stories of an eloquent OCD are absolutely fascinating. Especially when hearing about the pain and suffering part. The emphasis seems to be everywhere but the pain and suffering, even though it's the main part of the story. Intriguing! silverwasp wrote:Be careful what you wish for...

What do you call this then? A Grammer mistake?
That is quite something though, I hope I don't experience anything like that... Having my one Filling was bad enough for me.   Quote:Posting related image due to my inability to formulate an intelligent response. BlooDz wrote:i cant type good im stupid

Yes there are some real bad dentist out there and its hard to find a good one i did after a long time and i wish i had him from the start.
i have a fucked up mouth IM now missing #1,2,3,16,21,29,30,31and 32 do to the fact that i had a bad dentist early in life. he said i had room for my wisdom teeth to come it . there wasnt, my mouth is to small and they wound all fight for room. As they jocky for there new place in life i started to grind my teeth in my sleep and had no clue that it was happing. that the same time my Dad skip town and left my Mom with the 4 us the feed cash was tight so we did go to the dentist for the hell of it, if you wasnt in pain you didnt go.
Jump forwards a bit and 2 dentist later i was 20 and my lower right wisdom tooth was killing me the doc said in had to come out and he didnt pull the big ones. So he gave me the # of doc Bird and thats what he does the olny thing he does is pull teeth. I give him a call said i was in pain he set me for the next day and ask if i needed piankiller to get to sleep i said ill make throw 1 more night. next day i get to his office they rush me in to the chair by this time im going holy shit is going to suck. Doc Bird walks in a quick hi and hellow lets get it done in open my mouth and he says WTF whos your dentist and some one get him on the phone NOW. he bicth him out for 15 mins as we waited for the novocaine to kick. he in hang up the phone with a slam and told me never go back to that hack again ill give you a list of good dentist to pick from.
now for the pulling part the lower came out in under a min im not fucking was you it was fast and Birb said it was on the Lager side for wisdom teeth. he look up at the upper one and said that one needs to go too ill do it for free i just need your Ok. i node my head it was gone in 5 sec he is very good at his job. i was in less pain then i when in there with.
the hunte for a New guy to work on my mouth when on for a long time till i found one. who is Great an exnavy dentist who kowns his shit is strige up and front about what needs to be done and hates to see anyone in pain. he was the frist Doc the sit down and talk about what was going on with my teeth and ask me what i wanted to do in long term no short cut lets fix It. Yes its time again to Play WTF did Murdy Just type Robot Hell is real and i cant spell yes im dyslexic WDF? wrote:lol fuck you, Murdy. BadHorsie wrote: I love it!
