Devcon for the gob!

Postby Strika » Fri Apr 20, 2007 6:00 pm

I had part two of the dentist today. Part one happened three weeks ago when I woke up with a third of one of my rear Molars missing!!! :x As I had to get away to sydney for work, the dentist made a temporary cover for it till I could get back to him. Today he finished the job!

Amazing what they can do. he removed the cover he placed over the damaged tooth while I felt ever turn of the drill :x :x :x :cry: ,then he gave me another dose of Anaesthetic (I fuggin told him to dose me like a horse the first time but he wouldn't listen...mind you the 2nd time he made sure of it..didn't get feeling back till 4.00pm and he did it at 9.00am!!) then drilled a hole in the remainder of the tooth. He then screwed a peg into that hole and then rebuilt the tooth around that peg with this stuff which looked like white Devcon!! It's white so it looks like a normal tooth again! I was pretty amazed, thought they would have had to pull it out. So happy daze! :D Err and no pics! :wink:

sounds similar adventure to what i had happen to my tooth, cept i had 1/4 snap off due to a hole in the tooth, (reminds me, got to go back to get another hole sorted sometime soon).

Took a while for it to bed in as well, even when he did mould the biting and supposedly take the edges off.


The fun part was going to a nightshift with the anasthesia slowly wearing off on my mouth, man did i pop a shitload of ibuprofen that night!

My Dentist must be a genius then Mike!! I havn't had an ache or anything. Mind you my first hot coffee at maccas this morning made it a touch sensitive! :lol:

it wasn't a headache, more of just a throb, and i took em just to make sure it didn't get worse than mildly annoying. Also something about it getting right down to the pulp and being a 50/50 on if it had to be pulled or not :-\
