good luck. it will be done with before you know it . I had a molar pulled in Jan. then decided on an implant. now that's long and drawn out at least with the surgeon I'm using. he wants it to heal 5 mos or so before the cap etc.

anyway, I used the shot in the arm, put me to sleep. but for implant he couldn't so just novacaine and it wasn't so bad. don't worry. it will be fine. just use those ice packs for lots of hours afterward.

I know you worry about all sorts of things but you really should be fine with it. He gave me pain med and I think I took 2 pills just to be safe - - they say it's better to take before you have serious pain cause it gets rid of it better/quicker than if it starts hurting and then you take something. I really don't think mine was that achy but I went the just inb case route.
worst for me was to be careful eating to keep it clean but the gums heal pretty quick.
so think about something else - - like your wedding. get your mind off it.

Re: anyone up?

sweetie, it will all be ok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i know how stressful it can be going into what *feels* like a major surgery, and trying to over-prepare for it ... 'just in case'

they know what they are doing, they pull teeth alllllll day long.

its not like they're gonna tie a string to your tooth, the other end to a door, and slam the door




here's another one to make you too ...
