- Did my full mouth extractions hurt? NOPE. The shots hurt. The swelling was uncomfortable. But for me, my full mouth extractions hurt no worse than a single tooth extraction.

Thanks for watching!
I was completely awake threw the whole procedure. Just had all my top pulled out last week. I am a baby when it comes to pain. Look at me? Im a stick, I can't take much... So believe me when I say, if you have a dentist that knows what he is doing, it will not hurt one bit. I have only used ibprofin as a pain med as well. Believe me folks, its so worth it. Right now I have no teeth, waiting for the healing period, but I can say I feel sooooooo much better because I no longer have any rotten or broken teeth.
I went in yesterday for a full extraction, top and bottom. I was given a pill to take 1 hour before for nausea and Triazolam for anxiety 30 minutes before the procedure. It didn't do anything for me. I requested the 2nd pill which I was given 30 minutes after the first. Still nothing..I didn't even get groggy. They put numbing ointment on my gums prior to the shots, which helped a little bit and I recommend. My back molars came out fine but I had to be numbed again and again as they moved towards my front teeth. I think the pain from the shots was due from infection in my front tooth. I stopped the procedure after the last top tooth was out..and will go back to do the bottom next week. I withstood what I could take..my advice is, if you feel it, let them know and if its too much, stop it. I am pretty tough and have had shots in my mouth many times but my mind and body needed a break.
I have not experienced any pain from the extractions at all but I am following the after care to a T.
As said before everyone is different but dont be ashamed or afraid to say it hurts!! If you are not IV sedated, you are allowed to let them know your pain/discomfort levels..
That's reassuring...I'm a 40 yr old pudding when it comes to pain.
@@Davethresholdhey brother I'm getting 19 out tomorrow I'm scared to death. How did it go for you?
Just had top and bottom teeth removed
Just had full mouth extraction two days ago. It was one of most painful things I have ever felt. I had teeth pulled due to severe bruxism. During COVID I had ground my teeth to the gum line in several areas. I have problems with Novocaine not being as effective on the left side of my face. I had so many shots of Novocaine, in some extremely painful area. Then had to get shots of anesthesia directly into a few spots. Several times getting a tooth partially removed and then having to stop because of pain. It was awful. The staff were incredibly kind and really supportive during the painful parts. It took 24 hours for my mouth to stop bleeding and now my face is swolled and heavily bruised. It has been a tough ride. So it can be painful process, but it is what has to be done.
I had the top taken off in one day. Was given a pill that made me light sleep, but able to answer questions. My shots were given after that medication never felt the shots. After I found that all my teeth were sawed off. Never felt or remembered a thing. I brought a blanket with me, good idea. Never felt the four implants, and came home with teeth. Felt great, not stitches. Still trying to decide what to do as I am not comfortable with the permanent uppers. My lowers have implants, but they are removable, and easy to clean with an ultrasonic cleaner. Good luck to everyone going down this path.
I was attacked on NYC Subway in the 80’s…I remember broken jaw,teeth, skull, clavicle etc….gruesome situation. Doctors at NYU Langhone put me back together….additional surgeons made me normal..
Until this past year. My jawbone is breaking down, teeth falling out. Hearing issues, neck and head pain I never had before….
I have watched many of your videos. This one freaked me out. Those memories of being wrapped in ice and yards of gauze to keep me together. Tons of surgeries and pain. Scars on the outside and inside my skull/face.
OH NO 🙈 this triggered me to cry 😭 hysterically. I have to go through this again?
I don’t have a choice. I’m refusing dentures. I’m going for the 4/6 implants.
Next week I have another appointment. The fear is real.
Thank you 🙏🏽 for sharing. I thought I was the only one to suffer.
How did it go?
I hate to go on a tangent but could you have a deficiency in vitamin C? Because one of the symptoms of scurvy (lack of vitamin c) is scars dissolving, old wounds reopening etc. Sounds like what you're going through.
Oh bless you… ❤ so sorry for the suffering you have had to take.. 😢 sending love xx
I am at the fixed temps implant stage.. all on 6 top, 4 bottom.. the top was painless but the procedure bloody horrific.. I hate dentists.. hate them.. thebottom was easy as i was asleep but the pain after horrible.. that said now i am given a new life!! 15 yrs of toothless and just a top denture, i looked terrible but now i have full fixed teeth and go back in 4 months for the permanent teeth. If i can do it, believe me you can.. i even had to be put asleep for a simple procedure as im so scared.. its so worth it.. xxx
I’m exstatic to get my dentures finally.. I’m 49 & suffered for years now and am glad to finally be getting them & getting rid of these teeth I have left . That have caused me so much pain… good luck just curious why don’t you want dentures. I mean if you have the means to get implants go for it..
Many hugs around you 💕🕊
Just had 20 teeth pulled and left the office with dentures. Fit is pretty rough and am in pain. Your videos are giving me hope. Without seeing some of your videos I'd be feeling pretty defeated and unhappy right now. Thank you.
I'm about 3 weeks behind you, my bottoms are really loose and tops aren't the best fit either. I'm hopeful but I'm getting really frustrated !!
Just had 23 pulled 12 hrs ago and can't even put my temp dentures in at all... lots of butterscotch pudding for me so far... It's not fun for sure
@@WKRP187 I feel for you but I swear it gets better, yesterday was the first day I was able to eat toasted cheese for lunch and spaghetti for dinner... the first solid food in 3 weeks!!
The first couple weeks is rough with that hard plastic on tender gums sucks for sure. Once you get your first reline they'll fit way better.
@@natedawg9890hello. I have a question. Im about to have all my teeth, 25 to be exact taken out 1 day process getting put under. Should I get the immediate denture or just go without and let the healing process take place and then be fitted? Also do I have to pay for 4 plates total when buying my dentures? A little nervous but more excited for my overall health.
@@cristaltucker9301 I can only speak from my experience. I went to aspen dental for my dentures and went to the hospital to have the oral surgeon do my extractions. At aspen you'll get immediate dentures the around 6 months you'll get your permanent ones ,they charged me close to $4500. So I guess it's about $1000. For each plate.. I wish you the best !!
I just had a full mouth extraction 4 days ago so the memory is fresh. (26 teeth)
I was prescribed Valium 5mg and told to take 2 an hour before my appointment.
I must say, they didn’t do much, probably could have taken another.
First thing they do is take your blood pressure. Your bottom number must be under 100 or they can’t proceed. Mine was 104 even with taking the Valium. So they waited 10 minutes and took it again which was then 94 so they were able to proceed.
Dentist swabbed my upper mouth with numbing gel, waited a few mins then began to give the shots. He explained he’d done 100’s of these so no worries! Lol
He also told me he was going to wait till after my uppers were pulled before he numbs my lowers. I thought that was nice!
I felt every shot but just a prick, no pain, and I didn’t ever at any point ask him to stop. I laid completely still and allowed him to work.
He stared with my right side back molars and worked his way around. I could hear him drop each tooth onto the metal tray. I thought I’d been counting each but then he said we’re done with the top!
I said THATS CRAZY!
They laughed. I had only counted about 6 teeth I’d thought he pulled when he said “your tops are done now going to numb your bottom.”
I didn’t feel him take out most of my uppers. I HEARD a cracking sound when he apparently was twisting the tooth to loosen. That’s it.
No biggie!!
Same with the bottoms however I did feel some slight discomfort when he began pulling the bottoms because he didn’t wait for the shots to take full effect, he just started pulling. It still was no biggie.
The entire procedure took 1 hr 15 min and that included the wait time for my blood pressure to come down.
What I did feel after the first shots to my upper was my heart throbbing. I could literally feel it in my throat.
So when they returned after letting the shots take affect for about 8 mins I told them about it. They said that’s normal for the Novocain to do that, so they proceed to pull my teeth.
This having all my teeth pulled was my greatest stress prior.
I thought I can deal with all the after effects of having no teeth and immediate dentures, I just need to get through this day.
I did with EASE!
My mouth was numb for about 3-4 hrs after leaving the office but I was prescribed Ibuprofen 600 and took it every 6 hrs for 3 1/2 days, then didn’t need it anymore.
That’s MY story.
You’ll all be fine!
No worries!
You can do this!!
I hope so am about to do this procedure 😂
God bless u ....tomorrow m going for mine .... 😟
@@jdmsupporter3235 great stuff 😁 are you getting all on 4
Oh my gosh I am sitting here in fear because tomorrow is my appointment so obviously I came here to look for other stories thank you so so much I feel a little better PS I’m getting a total of five extracted
@@heatherhedger2244 Only 5 ? Piece of cake girl! You got this! Be brave and just sit there, relax in that chair and trust that the person doing your extractions is highly qualified!
Go home a relax for the rest of the day! Drink lots of water and rejoice you no longer have to worry about those toxic teeth in your body.
I got 22 teeth pulled. The doctor gave me some medicine in an IV and said I'm going to start feeling really relaxed. I said ok and that's all I remember. I woke up looking around trying to figure out if they pulled my teeth and they did lol. All I could eat on day 1 was a pint of ice cream. Each day is better. I'm on day 5 eating ravioli. Not much swelling. It hurts on the front of my lower jaw and I think that's where they did a bone graft. My mom wore dentures for years with no problems. I hope I'm like her.
Great video! You explain solutions for our fears with great empathy. Thank you!
this is day 3 since full mouth extraction, im glad i found your channel you are answering a lot of my questions and worries, as a youtuber it is important for me to speak well .your videos are putting me at ease thank you so much
I just found you today and have been binge watching your videos all day. It's so awesome to see how much you've changed but you're still so freaking awesome. Thanks for all of the help you've given me just in the last 6 hours! ♥️
Welcome, Lindsey! Glad to help!
I am one of the not so lucky ones that had a lot of pain! I was under general anesthesia for 7 1/2 hours. I had 24 extractions
, bone grafting, large hole in my sinus repaired, 10 implants and the lower arch placed. Unexpectedly I had to wear a denture on the top for 3 months. It was all extremely painful for me. The first 2 -3 days I had an extreme headache. I did take traditional pain medication that my surgeon prescribed. I am pretty sure it was Oxycodone. I got home on Tuesday night from surgery around 8 or 9pm. I stayed in bed on the following Wednesday and Thursday but was able to stay up on Friday. So really 2 full days out of commission after surgery but then it took me several more days to get back to “normal”. But you know what I would do it all over again in a heartbeat! It is so worth it ❤️
@jane joyce is it okay if I message you? your experience sounds very close to mine. I am really struggling waiting for my permanent teeth.
Got a full extraction 25 teeth pulled today at 8am its now 7pm at night got about 30 stitches but my mouth is still nu. I'm so scared can someone tell me so.ething good I'm scared that mouth is still num
@@TheAnarchyIsReal I hope you are doing okay. Now and are happy with your new smile.
Oh my God, you poor thing. This is exactly what I'm terrified of. I'm glad you think it was all worth it, but I'm petrified of the pain. Even for the consolation I left a body imprint of sweat in the dentist chair from anxiety and panic. I'm so worried! I just wish they'd put me under aesthetic for the entire thing.
Thank you so much for sharing this because I go January 4th for my oral surgeon consultation to get all my teeth extracted. I'm 36 and I am 4 years sober so I can't take pain medication but I'll be ok. I am really scared but I have faith. I get serious anxiety so I'm nervous thank you for helping.
Thank you for this video, I just got my upper teeth pulled and I agree that the shots hurt the most. Mine wore off at the end a bit and I started to feel the stitches being sown in. Thank you for all the helpful advice!
I got my upper today and I'm in a lot of pain.
1st time I've seen u. I'm a senior & just interested. I would NEVER know u have dentures. You are so pretty & have beautiful eyes, & your smile is awesome. Dental work is so scary & expensive. Thank u for all the info. 👍
I recently found your channel and need to take some time to dive in to where/how your journey began. I had full mouth extractions done October, 2021 and had 14 implant post installed and major bone reconstruction, all in the same day. Probably not my smartest move. The recovery was barbaric and the most painful experience of my life (that’s saying a lot; I’ve had 15 other surgeries, chemo and radiation!) I was completely unrecognizable for a week due to the severe swelling and bruising of my face, eyes and neck. My treatment team was top notch; I shudder to think what it would’ve been otherwise. I am still in the temporary phase and won’t receive my permanent prosthetics for a few more months. The pain, the feeling of closterphobia of having foreign things in my mouth I can’t take out myself is almost too much to bear sometimes. Eating food is hurrendous.. there is not cutting, grinding or chopping.. it’s more like an animal mashing their food leaving behind globs of unprocessed food stuck to my teeth and gums. I am frustrated and feel very defeated sometimes. Am I totally alone in this?
I’m getting all my teeth removed next week. I chose the option to be put to sleep because my anxiety is horrible. Thank you for all the useful information. I can honestly say you’re making me less nervous
Same, and i’m scared to get put to sleep
My appointment is Thursday.. I'm completely FREAKING out, I Absolutely have to be sedated.
My wife has to get hers done tomorrow I'm more scared than she is about it and I need all mine done too it sucks
just had 22 extractions done 2 days ago :( hope everyone had a speedy recovery
@@saw1499how long did it take to pull them all and were any of them broke off at the gum? Thank you for sharing
Had 32 pulled yesterday, (obviously?) including the wisdom teeth. Thanks for making this, definitely eased my mind a bit as far as what to really expect. Luckily, I was fortunate enough that they didn't need to be surgical, though it was close.
How old are you if I may ask
I’m going in to my dentist tomorrow for a full mouth extraction… ain’t gonna lie, I’m scared… mostly cause I’m afraid I’m going to wake up during the procedure and also I really have no pain now, it’s just that all of my roots are detaching themselves from the bone, love your videos, they are so encouraging! ❤️
bless your heart. in the long run if that was necessary you'll feel better. the whole deal is getting use to it, took me a year. the hardest part is the ego deal and making sure you work with your dentist on how want to look recreating your natural smile. so bottom line any where from 6 months to a yr. stay on top of how you want those things feel, look and fit don't be afraid to speak up on what you want and why.
take for example my first ones where way too protruding hell I looked like somebody else. remember how you looked and hold em to it. what you'll get is somebody else's idea of what your mouth or what your smile should look like, few go by what it was so in your deallings start tweaking back to the way it was. things like making sure your new teeth go high enough, the amount of product they use doesn't make you look like you were punched in the mouth a week ago, when you open and close your mouth it doesn't pull the uppers down (smooth lip action i.e.) remember it really is a work in progress.
I just had mine done a week ago i was scared the twilight sedation was a god send i woke up once and passed right back out i felt absolutely no pain. The worst part of me is the liquid diet
im going in soon too! im paying extra to be knocked out for it all!
Same for meeeee. How'd it go?
I been seeing the same dentist for over 30+ years and he’s my first cousin. Thank goodness 😅
I am 35 years old man who just got implant two days ago, I have Substantial swelling, and it’s causing me anxiety! Thank you for sharing your story and experience it’s giving me a lot of hope and comfort!
I have the operation next week for my upper jaw only and I am nervous but I know it is for the best and then a click denture in 8 months. thank you for sharing your experience, it helps many people like me who still have to go through it❤❤❤
Oh my God thank you for making a video. I’m going to get my last 7 teeth removed tomorrow. I’m not nervous. I’ve already went through it once before. I could never imagine getting all my teeth polled all at the same time. I must say you look beautiful.
I have to get 9 removed in a couple weeks and a couple crowns and I’m absolutely terrified
My situation was the same as yours, my dentist suggested surgery with general sedation with a oral surgeon. I’m glad that I took that road.
Those are the videos l remember most....l have been thru extractions, full mouth, seen a lot of people going thru it but never have l seen anyone's face swell so badly. I remember thinking, is this the same girl? You looked out of it but the swelling was so out of control and felt really bad for you. Great video!
I'm 1 week into full extractions and immediate dentures. Your videos are a life saver for me 🙏 Thank you for all your helpful information.
3 months in, and I can eat Anything I want, and have never had to use polygrip. Alot of relearning how to eat, but I'm sooo glad I stood my ground with No glue. It's 100% possible everyone!!!!
I’m going to my dental surgery appt today.. full mouth extractions.. temp dentures.. I’ll be under full sedation, totally knocked out lol.. that’s my preference.. I’ve had bad experiences with dentists before.. anxiety is an issue.. I greatly appreciate you sharing your experience.. it means so much, you look amazing 😊.. It’s Def going to be a process.. ♥️
Thank you, As I sit here 1 say after exactly what you had swelling up like a greedy chipmunk. This makes me more relaxed. Thanks.
I’m 6 days post op from my top teeth pulled. I just got all on six surgery the worst for me is the stitches. The stitches are so itchy so so so itchy! It’s driving me insane! I’m so happy I found your channel it’s nice to have others with the some struggle. I’ve only been on Motrin for pain and it’s not pain pain it’s just achy like you described. The only “pain” is the itchy stitches.
Doing that also, did you still had some healthy tooths ?
Hi, I just found your videos and I want to thank you for sharing the information. I’m 58, and I’m going in November to have my uppers pulled. I have 11 teeth left, most of which are broken. Since I was young, I’ve always had bad teeth so I’ve spent a lot of time in the chair! I told the oral surgeon I want to be out during the procedure, i want to just come in and get it done; I don’t want to be aware of anything they do 🤣
I also have an aortic aneurysm so I don’t want to put myself through that stress either…
It’s going to cost me a lot more to do it this way, but I really don’t think I can handle it under local.
about to have a full mouth of "surgical" extractions done I'm glad I found your videos thank you we appear to have the same issues
I’m not scared of pain. I’m scared of my thoughts and mindset during the procedure. Thursday is my procedure and I’m freaking out
How are you now?
@@georgiaisom6347 I’m amazing!!! I love my new smile and all the pain is gone!
This is very helpful. Thank you. I am a little terrified about the pain. I'm having the top teeth removed in 1 day and having the denture after 2 weeks. I have heart issues so there is some concern about putting me under. The up side is that I'm excited about being able to smile confidently again, and eat without pain. Your teeth look great. I appreciate what you said about being adamant about having the pain fully under control before they start the procedure.
First of all your dentures look awesome. This time next week , August 3, 2023, , I am having my remaining 15 teeth extracted, and the denture journey begins. I opted for temps first. After viewing many of your great videos, I am feeling more and more confident I'll get through this ok. I'm not a bleeder. Recent extractions didn't bleed at all when I got home. And three weeks later the holes have healed great. I'll be taking two Triazolam pills one hour before going in. In the past, I only took one and never remember a thing. No pain..nothing! When I woke up and I was home in bed. 6 Extractions complete. Two pills should do the trick.
Wow! You guys are so brave! I have sjogrens syndrome which has destroyed my teeth. I had a filling two days ago and I'm about to go in and have two molar extractions and get a permanent crown put on a front tooth (it was prepped 10 days ago) right now and I'm petrified! I still need 5 more crowns and a bridge from the two that are being extracted today. This will be extraction 3 & 4 for me. The prior two were really painful and took a while to heal due to autoimmune illnesses. I need so much work done and its so expensive. I was hoping for a full top extraction and dentures but only two were bad enough. My bottom need a ton of fillings. Good luck to everyone here on their journey for a beautiful, healthy smile 😁
Thank you, just got a full extraction 36 hours ago.... cant fit dentures due to swelling ..800 mg ib. And rest now.
Thank you , and your teeth look amazing as do you. Beautiful
I need this done…with my remaining teeth, I get tired of smiling with my mouth closed because I’m ashamed to show my teeth when smiling. It’s all about the money right now
I do too but I'm scared
I had my upper teeth removed. My extraction experience was similar. My pain was also the shots. However in week three swelling is gone but the roof of my mouth is painfully sore. Going to see dentist Thursday. Your video is very comforting.
I am so happy I came across your channel. I'm going in Wednesday for my full extraction and I am terrified. I completely agree that the shots are the worst part. They are putting me under witch really makes me nervous. They didn't ask for any pre option blood draws, EKG or anything. Is that normal? Once its over I'm also terrified of the pain. I'm not getting immediate dentures cause my insurance will only pay for the temporary or the permanent. Anyway, you helped ease some of my worries and for that I am thankful 🙂
Thank you for making this video. I had full extractions 2 weeks ago and I'm still recovering. I had only local anesthesia. I also had complications too. I had a severe hemorrhage that were not able to control. My faced looked like I had been boxing for 12 rounds. Sphycological it's been hard on me. It's not easy to wear dentures and to learn how to eat with them. I have a severe case of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis since I was two years old and the amount of consumption of steroids (Prednisone) destroyed my teeth. I'm in the process of healing. I'm looking forward to have implants in the future. However, it's very expensive and to be honest I'm not sure what am I going to do to afford them. As far pain goes, it was very painful. I only took a combination of Tylenol and ibuprofen for my pain and that was my choice and did well with that.
Greetings! I am in the process of looking for a prostadontist that accepts Medicaid so I can finally get my dentures. I am anxious about the whole process. Everyone wants me to get implants, but Medicaid doesn't cover them, so that's okay with me. The problem is finding someone to actually do it! Thanks for sharing your experience. Love and blessings ♥️🙏
Your teeth are beautiful! Im not going to lie...I just had an absessed tooth pulled and prepped for an implant. It was brutal. The shots sent me to the moon. After I was numb it was easy but I will say my dentist prescribed nothing for pain. I was told to switch on tylenol and ibuprofen. This has been the worst pain Ive ever had. Id rather give birth...the pain is over quicker. I have a very high tolerance for pain too. I pray I never have to do this again. Im not sure how you had all yours done with minimal pain but Im glad for you!
I do everything possible not to have shots. I know they have to be done for extractions, but like you I have high anxiety about dental work period. I am waiting to get my extractions scheduled. I can't believe how much wait time there is for everything. It increases my anxiety. I appreciate your videos very much!
We anxiety people send our love and comfort. Just know others with our problem have successfully succeeded and did not die. Just like anxiety is uncomfortable we will not die. Remember it is a process design to protect us and not harm us. Anxiety and panic are in fact quite harmless. IF you will stop fighting it and allow it with a curious exploratory outlook you will discover that it will come and go A WHOLE LOT SOONER that usual and when this finally first happens to you there will be the most humongous Ah-Ha moment that triggers this amazing victory dance unlike anything you've ever experienced and the liberation will in fact encourage you in ways you actually dream about. Again, we love ya you awesome human!
I needed this 🙏
I closely mirrored your routine. Numbed up well and extracted all uppers in one day. Went home biting gauze pad and taking 800 mg Ibuprofen. Came in 8:00 next morning for temporary uppers. Returning two weeks from now (like 4/5 weeks after upper extraction) to do the lowers. Ive had a few embarrassing encounters and a little soreness the first two weeks but the dentures initially felt huge in my mouth but feeling more normal each day. I want to speak more each day and rush me back to speaking without a lisp but with only having a dog to talk with it is taking me much longer. I anticipate feeling pretty normal in like maybe 6-8 weeks. Watch a lot of YT for help and hints. Experiment with how much adhesive to use and where to apply.
I wish you well, dear; and i am glad that you are happy with your denture.
I’m getting one side of my mouth pulled per week for the next month because of how my insurance is…. I’m scared cause I have severe dental anxiety and have no way to be relieved. Watching your video helps me learn what to expect… I’m gonna be awake 😢 I start this Friday.
Your hair looks great 👍 I love the length.
Three weeks ago on the 24th of Feb I had 8 top teeth at the back removed with alveoloplasty (not counting wisdoms as all 4 were removed last year), leaving me with just the 6 in the front. I had no real pain, just some aching for a few days.
A week later on the 3rd of March I had 10 bottom teeth removed including lower canines this time, with alveoloplasty, leaving me with just the central 4 (that can be saved). Same as the top I just had some aching for a few days.
In 11 days time on the 28th of March I will have the remaining top 6 removed (so I will be left with no original top teeth) and a full upper immediate denture fitted; and at the same time I will have a partial lower immediate denture fitted.
I'm excited and also nervous. For the first time in my life I will be able to smile with teeth showing!
Thank you for sharing your experience. Btw your teeth look great!
You have beautiful teeth ! Thanks for sharing your story
Did you have infection? Being a nurse I know that will definitely affect the way dental shots work. You are a godsend to me as I’m facing getting my 12 final teeth pulled. I took soboxone for a pain med instead of OxyContin the suboxone sublingual destroyed my teeth! I was one ( no bragging please) that got compliments saying what a beautiful smile I had.
After reading all of this im so greatfull i opted for intravenous sedation. Iv went in and full mouth extractions were surgically removed ftom broken molors and extreme decay. Went home with top and bottom immediate dentures. Slept once i got home. Went to my denturist the next day and hes been my best friend to this day. Best piece of advice communicate with your denturist and dont give up it does get easier
I’m about to go see the dentist to get all my teeth taken out and I’m super nervous 😥
Great video and very helpful. Did they offer you the option of general anesthesia? I can hardly imagine being awake for all of this.
Props to you for getting it done and here's me debating if or when should I get my front bottom teeth removed- would be 6-7 i believe.
I'm sure you know this but you are very good. I did not educate myself at all, it's just my health plan agreed to give me 4500 a year for dental work and I just told my dentist to work within my limit and that was a first visit, by the way.
Still getting used to wearing upper dentures and that cost me my whole allotment for this year. Sounds like I have had less trouble than you post op
again thanks@!
Thank you this is so helpful and your teeth are beautiful!
Don't know if it's the same in any other country but in the UK I was offered sedation, not general anesthetic and I would strongly recommend this as it makes the day of the operation really easy. You just can't drive for a couple of days.
I would also agree with the informative video, it's not painful, just unpleasant.
I would also advise if you get a lot of swelling a few days after, go get it checked. In my case it was an infection and that and the treatment for it was very painful because i left it so long. During the first 2/3 weeks recovery I did go to painkillers stronger than ibuprofen, but I think needing this is the exception not the norm.
I can't believe you were able to do that! I go to an oral surgeon for just one tooth. Brave.
I underwent a procedure where all my teeth were extracted at once, and I was conscious throughout. The relief from the pain of having bad teeth was different from the post-extraction pain. The numerous injections for numbing were almost dreamlike. It took several shots to achieve complete numbness, and if I felt anything, they administered more. After the extractions and immediate denture placement, I managed to drive home, which was an hour away. However, once I got home, the pain was so intense that all I could do was lie down, sleep, and let the blood drain. The following day, the pain had subsided to a dull ache. I didn't take any pain medication. The discomfort was significant, and I had to endure it. However, the alternative would have been a mouth full of painful, bad teeth.
Im doing research and my Long term Goal is to get Full Implants and i need to find out if i do 1 extraction at a time won't be a challenge for a dentist or dentists although i do remember you said all extractions are about the same as only 1. I'm on partial disability SSDI so my learning is somewhat limited. And its only $1000 per mo. which im grateful for but how will i even be approved for dental payments. But i love your channel and im so happy i stumbled on to it.!
Yeah, me too. Discomfort is the right word. Never had any pain per say, just low key sore and the unpleasant sensation of having these odd temp dentures in for a month and a half. You have to admit, this is a real journey and not for the faint of heart
I had my top pulled and bone shaved down today. I requested to be put under because I was paranoid about the pain, but walked in this morning knowing it was what was best for me. Followed through with ease and got up and walked out without letting the assistants help. It was nothing compared to what I thought I would go through, slepped for a few hours, and have been up moving around like normal. Also had a root puncture, my sinus cavity besides an occasional nose bleed zero pain.
Geezuss.. but yes i was put out, so much better. Top lot zero pain but the bottom, agony ! But then i had immediate load with the bottom. Im scared when they fit my permanent teeth they will inject me again.. 😢😮❤ everyone’s saying they dont need to numb me as its not like veneers but… i hope theyre right
thank you so much for making this video. I'm having to get a full extraction July 18th and I'm terrified, But I have already setup for me to be knocked out. Just not looking to after it's done.
Thank you so much I am facing this in the near future!
Thank you for this information and I will take heed and check it out more. Mine are really bad and i am gong overseas for work. Peace
I was extremely lucky, my dentist prescribed pain meds before the full mouth extractions days before to be prepared. Day of extractions only given 1 Motrin right before, had IV sedation. Went home, had "0" Zero pain, never had to take pain meds. Yes, I had swelling and the yuckiness of having extractions. That was my biggest fear, that the pain would be heriendous, because 2 years earlier I had a molar taken out and the pain kicked my butt. But this whole month extraction with a whole lot of grafting, zero!!!
I'm really glad I found your content. I had 14 teeth extracted 5 days ago. I'm extremely dental phobic, they knew this. That actual procedure was fine, I was sedated. The aftercare however has been awful. I have been in excruciating pain for days. The dentist wasn't " comfortable " prescribing more pain meds. I also have TMJ disorder which flared up as a result of the procedure and I couldn't get anything to alleviate my pain. I have regretted this decision, but I know it will be bad before it gets better. But I am so miserable. My gums are so sore and I'm so sad. I'm hoping my recovery gets better.
I had 26 pulled at one time 10 days ago it dose get better I promise the hardest part for me was eating and what to eat right away I’m not fully healed but in a lot better shape it gets better day by day u will see less and less pain
Still regretting?
Warm salt water swish 5 times a day.
Yikes I go in tomorrow morning full mouth extractions and temps.
Thanks for your videos they are a great help👍.
The biggest fear is my wife seeing me for the first time without them at night. I’m dreading that reality more than anything!.
And she is doing the same only she is 4 weeks behind me because she’s doing hers through Cleveland clinic dental collage.
Thanks again you are awsome and much appreciated!.
Ps beautiful smile and teeth🤙❤️
If it makes you feel any better…front teeth are usually the easiest to extract.
Thank you for this. I've been in the position where the dentist has tried telling ME that I'm completely numb, and gaslighting me into thinking I shouldn't feel anything, when I clearly can feel it. I've been absolutely terrified of my teeth since that day. I've got to have a full extraction in 2 weeks, and I'm losing sleep and my anxiety is horrific. I'm going to firmly make sure they know when I feel any type of pain.
Bro, I am one of those people. I feel everything. Hit me all you want with drugs. It will only do so much. Go to a dentist that will knock you out. Otherwise if you can't, prepare for hell. I'm not trying to scare you I'm hoping you can change your dentist. Had my dentures done a few months ago. I'm good now but it was medieval torture for me. Me and dentist were ready to fight. Don't listen to Dentists. They have their teeth what do they know? Listen to people that have been through it. I would warn my worst enemy if he was someone like us that felt everything.
I had two molars pulled. One was abscessed. They must have given me at least six injections of Novocain, but it might as well been water. I could feel everything, but the dentist forged ahead. She nearly pulled me out of the chair yanking while I was yelling. It was like having Doc Holliday pull my teeth in the 1860’s, but without the laudanum. The roots broke off of one. I’ve had open heart surgery, broken bones, half a thumb bit off breaking up a dog fight…on and on. I had NEVER had pain like I felt that day. I can’t take ibuprofen or any NSAIDs due to blood thinning medication, and no opioids prescribed. In two weeks I’m having all my top teeth extracted, again with novocaine only. I finally called my primary care doc and he prescribed 1.5mg of lorazepam, as if that will have much effect on a 180 pound man! I have no choice but to go ahead - I’m risking my life with dental issues. Thanks much for the encouraging video. I need some courage to go through with this after the horror show and trauma from my last experience.
@@garyolson2676How did it go?
I myself was awake for every one of my teeth being extracted,soft teeth runs in my Family,bad thing about me afterwards is only the top dentures would work because my lower bone structure was very thin and I’ve been without bottom teeth for the past 9 years,it’s really bad sometimes trying to eat crunchy foods,cuts my gums,I can’t afford implants so I’m kinda in a bad situation right now,I’m retired/disabled and on a fixed income so it’s not easy,you look great girl,btw,my original teeth were so bad that infections were all over my mouth,it was bad,so I kinda half smile and half laugh with only top dentures,it’ll work out someday for a full smile
That was very useful information Considering my mouth looks like a grenade went off in it.... now have an infection my uppers jaw. This has been
A nightmare.... thank u zweetpea.... infection under
Your implants are amazing they look really good on you! I always been self conscious about my smile and at the moment I’m in the process of getting dentures. I just need to save for the down payment for implants 😉
Your teeth look great, very natural.
Extractions were easy for me as I had sedation and it removed all pain. The worst time was the first week of recovery. Needed a week off work and proper painkillers for about a week. After that recover from the remaining discomfort was very quick. The only issue around pain came for me because I had an infection from the first procedure and the bottom implant didn't quite take and that was a painful appt. but I was very unlucky to have has either of these, so for most people it's not a particularly procedure. A large filling was far worse.
Since we’re all telling War stories. Just 1 month ago today I had 3 wisdom teeth , 22 teeth , 10 titanium screws. All in one sitting . Walked in at 8am , left at 8:30 pm. Left with ZERO, I’ll repeat…. Left with ZERO, Pain Meds…. First 2 weeks, a nightmare
omg… I feel for you. I had full mouth extraction, 14 crews installed and lots of bone removed.. but my surgeon was very good about pain management; it’s barbaric even with the pain meds. I sure hope you’re feeling much better now.. it was enough to make me almost completely lose my mind!
Excuse me? Hol…hold on, hold on. Did you just actually say ZERO PAIN MEDS?!?! 😮😮😮 I could neeevverrr. Are you superhuman? Do you have another way you treat your pain? Gooooodd looortt.
@@jessb465
Most place across the US don’t prescribe pain medication anymore. I was told that when I get mine done I can take Ibuprofen
I’m a few days away from some extractions, surgical and standard. I’ll be getting a transitional partial for upper and lower right away. It was a bad bout with depression that got me here as I basically didn’t care for myself as best as one should. I have all that being treated now, quit smoking two years ago and been getting into better shape. Next thing to do is fix these damn teeth so I can once again share my cheesy grin with the world!
I will be prescribed Valium I believe to chill me out along with nitrous oxide. This is only because I’ll get agitated sitting there for so long. It’s good to know what’s coming afterwards and feel that from your videos and others, I know what to expect and how to care for myself for a good recovery.
I found a great dentist who listened to my story versus assuming drug usage which has happened in the past and turned me off the process as I wanted to avoid assumptions and judgements. He discussed his ideas with me and gave me a rundown and believes that I will be happy with the results. Well, we will find out soon!
So folks; take care of yourselves first and foremost! Depression is a mofo but it can be fought! Find a good dentist that listens and works with you. Surround yourself with a support system and rock the rest!
Thanks for your story! Maybe I’ll even share mine. 😊
Thank you for sharing this!
I just had my top done today and the dentist questioned was I sure I felt pain but not pressure. After he would shoot me again with numbing medication he would immediately start again without giving time to set in . I don't understand why he seemed bothered to keep numbing me. Had a horrible experience 😢 and to top it off he asked me to please stop crying so he could finish. Took 3 hrs. To remove 10 teeth and place 4 implants. Glad you had a better experience
I did full arch (top & bottom done 70 days ago. It was easy peezy. Have my temps in now. Waiting on permanents 😁
I just had all my teeth pulled out the pain I had was just a lot of pressure and I just felt uncomfortable
Am still a little swollen were my inplants are at and my chin feels so tight am just waiting to heal a little bit I can't wait to get my new teeth I got my teeth extraction on September 21 2023 your video are awesome to watch thax
Your teeth look great. I have had tooth issues my entire life, I am in my late 30's now. I need all mine out but I am terrified. I hate dentists/pain etc. And I am worried how dentures would be for eating and stuff. My biggest issue is I gag a ton at a dentist, and can't stand the gauze stuff in my mouth. I was choking to death(at back of my throat/couldn't breathe actual choking) on a gauze roll during a dentist appointment once. It honestly added so much more anxiety for me and dentists
Thankyou. About to do this Monday...
Update: Pulled upper teeth... They only can use so much Novocain as she talks about... It wasn't as bad as I thought... But, once very numbed up and then didn't feel much of anything... She's spot on... I was NOT 'out of it' at all...
I just got all on 8 yesterday, 8 too 8 bottom, I’m 24 a still had a lot of my bone so they placed more implants for better results, put me to sleep at 11:17 am woke up at 7 pm , and same here I had a lot of teeth but I had a lot broke teeth at the roots, where the roots where still inside the bone but had nothing exposed. Came out great tho, just a little sore , my lips are still numb but best decision I made, and thank god for my insurance .. $53k surgery cost me not one penny! 9 years of having dental issues , 2 years of wishing I had all on 4 , and finally was able to get it done because my insurance covered at 100% , got treated like a king at the office bc not every insurance even covers dental work and if they do they cover very little of it. Thank you UPS ! Had to work at ups part time for 9 months to revive their insurance, and it’s one of the best in the country no one really knows. Had my full time during the day then part time at ups in the evening. It was a long 9 months running from across the city from my full time to part time but alllllll worth the wait
I had all my molars pulled on top and bottom and the rebuilt my bone with cadaver bone. After the surgery it was so very very painful for me but got through it. Now I’m going to have my 6 front teeth pulled and have a upper denture. I’m curious to see if the front teeth won’t be as painful since I have no back teeth. I really appreciate your videos to what to learn about what we have to look forward to . Thanks again
Hi, I just had full mouth extraction with immediate dentures. 4 days ago. Worst part was the shots otherwise the pulling of my teeth went quickly. Medicine I'm taking just alternating between Tylenol and Ibuprofen.
I justgot my full mouth top and bottom extractions done yesterday my hubby was with me moral support:) I'm in so much pain having it hard to speak properly again I was awake the whole time with laughing gas then went home and threw up all day
And now you have a beautiful smile!!
Thank you!
Mine was done less than a month before had my baby. Remember eating smoothies to heal. Could not take anything into anxiety due to being pregnant. Felt pain before leaving doctors office. Wanted to pass out waiting for pain meds after procedure. I could not sleep for days woke up to pain. Had immediate dentures. Putting the dentures in and taking them out hurt the most while healing. Don't don't do it right before having a baby. Find a way to not have pain. Talk to your dentist.
thank you for this video i go on wed to have full extraction and most things dont worry me i have been shot i had knee replacements but this is got me so nervous i cant think straight
I went in to have all of my upper teeth extracted yesterday. I was given 2 anti-anxiety meds by the dentists about an hour before starting. They made me a little bit drowsy, but i was still fully alert and conscious once they began the extraction process. I 100% agree that the 'numbing mouth-shots' are the most annoying/intimidating part of the entire process. (At least for me it was) But once the numbing agents go to work, the rest of the extractions I had were pretty manageable. All done within about 90mins. I currently have an upper arch of immediate dentures that are pretty challenging to get used to so far...Im sure adjustments may need to be made when I go back in after healing up over this upcoming weekend . Wish i would have seen this vid a day sooner 😅
Wow!!!! Thanks so much.
Just had my top row (14 teeth) taken out yesterday and get the bottom (13 teeth) taken out in two weeks. No anesthesiology, no gas, just lidocaine shots, wide awake. I got the 800mg ibuprofen and 20 (5mg) hydrocodones. Not gonna lie, because I was so worried about the pain, I took four of those hydrocodones rt when i got them an hour after the appointment and one 800 mg ibuprofen. Slept fine. Haven't had any pain yet this morning and haven't taken any more hydrocodone. Fingers crossed I don't need to take any more of them.
I wish I had watched your videos before. I decided to try to get implants. And I'm saying tried that you're trying to put snappins in. I paid for permanent implants the top of they're trying to put snappins in. Now they're trying to foreign all. And I don't even think they can put a pair of dentures in. After grinding my gum down beware people of the bad. In dentures implant. This lady here has honest videos for CZcams. Watch thim, listen to To what she is telling you, I don't know her. Her videos are a great learning. If you're getting implants, it's a nightmare. My dentist did never was honest about all the procedures. I didn't even get a pick out the tea. They did it, they picked out the parts. Red flag. Flying every road and I mount $16000.. This lady that made these videos his correct about in plants. I wish I would listen to her before I had mine done. I'm gonna be lucky if I can get teeth in my mouth now. I have to pay cash up front. Do you know? Do you know ever pay cash up front? Watch how they build your Insurance Company and go online? Asking for bad reviews? Porthology, it is course. All Dennis are gonna give you the good ones. But they're not gonna tell you the bad ones in their office
I got my top whole teeth extractions done today. I was given immediate dentures with them I’m feeling pain. I was given ibuprofen 800 but I’m bleeding like dripping blood.
I was 14yr old and still 4 stubborn baby molars pulled the same day. Just Novocaine. And that dentist struggled. They did not want to be removed . Then I had 1 wisdom tooth removed as as an adult and that one almost came out by itself. Minimal bleeding and pain and no swelling.
I just got a lower molar removed. It was a horror show, truly. It was a previously root canaled tooth that became re infected and it was determined that the tooth could not be saved. The dentist I saw was a very fresh dentist (the son of my regular dentist who joined his dad after graduation) I got probably 5 needles and never got all the was numb. So it wasn't writhing in agony but I certainly still felt pain. 2 of the root also broke off in my jaw so they had to go fishing around to get those out. He put some bone graft stuff in there too and sutures. Because of all the trauma when the local wore off I was screaming in agony and had to call to get pain meds stronger than ibuprofen. Then all that packing came out and I was left with a dry socket. I did follow all directions. Terrible, awful experience. Wpuld not wish on my worst enemy.
Yes it hurts.. I had a root that went into my sinus cavity and had a heck of an infection to add insult to injury..
Your so brave ❤
I had my bottom teeth extracted today. I didn't experience pain except from the needle for the numbing. The pressure in my head was horrible. I have anxiety & panic disorder. I took a dose of my anxiety medication before I got there. It helped me enough to keep me from totally freaking out.
I bled quite a bit. When I got home I had blood on my clothes. I'd definitely advise to have someone with you. Now I'm so worried because after awhile I was hungry so I got a milkshake. I don't recall them telling me not to use a straw. I hope I haven't already messed up. I've never been to this dentist.
I had an abscess also. I called yesterday and got me in today. I just hope by drinking from a straw hasn't messed everything up. Has that ever happened to anybody and what happened? Thanks for sharing your experience.
My biggest fear are those needles to the roof of the mouth! The loss of the last 9 uppers doesn't bother me. The fact that I will no longer have my natural upper teeth doesn't bother me. The fact that I'll be a denture wearer for ever doesn't bother me. The needles to the roof of the mouth has me scared silly!
im having this procedure tomorrow thats why im watching. Im literally terrified!
I ended up in hospital 2 years ago because of a tooth infection, I have had the tooth removed, but it took him 6 shots to numb the mouth. I have spoken to my dentist, and he touched on the subject about implants. But unless I win lotto, or a way to pay them off. I am 57 and have had Gingivitis all my life. Not fun.
