dental experience

got one procedure is the cleaning of the area along the gum and teeth part. Went to this procedure twice before and boy was it a painful event. is quite scary for the weak hearted.

it's painful for u cause it shows that your teeth got alot of cavities which is tough for the dentist to remove yours.

They are removing the tartar that was built up along the gum line.Originally posted by january:got one procedure is the cleaning of the area along the gum and teeth part. Went to this procedure twice before and boy was it a painful event. is quite scary for the weak hearted.
It must have been a long time since you went to clean your teeth right ?
Tartar hardens and make it very time consuming and painful to remove.
It will also leads to gum disease if you don't remove them often.
Your gum must also been weak, that is why it is painful and bleed when they clean the teeth.
Go dentist more often and you will not have this kind of problem. -

Money is not the most painful part.
How old are you now ?
You better go remove them early, because the longer you wait, the bigger the wisdom teeth grows, the deeper the roots. The more painful and harder to remove it.
Do not wait till it starts to get infected, it will be very very painful.
Mine was infected one day, I feel weird and keep touching my tongue to the gum around the wisdom tooth, within 1 hour, my whole cheek was swollen, and it was midnight, I had to endure the throbbing pain and couldn't sleep , ha to count the seconds till the next morning when the clinic finally opens. No pain relief medicine help at all.
After that one infection, I removed all of my wisdom teeth. -

i experienced that kind of pain also lor.. it was too much to bear.. esp when it led to a terrible headache that i felt like banging my head against the wall.

better than suffer in pain..
but the prob is... i dun have the money now leh. -
