weed and pain....?

[brrg744]

Im going to the dentist tomorrow and i hate it (who doesnt). I was wondering if smoking some bud before i go will reduce some of the pain.?

[rigirl825]

I'm not sure, but it would probably be a great time.

I have to go there in the next few weeks... might try that out. :)

Not for noob smokers, they would probably get sooo paranoid they'd freak out and run lol..
I wouldn't know as i have never had anything done at the dentist (brace, and whatnot, but nothing painful in the slightest lol) but yeh, smoke up and you'll find out!

[3 Sheets To The Wind]

Congratulations on your 200th post brrg, mate!:D

[seedbare]

depend on how you react to it, for me it makes me more acutely aware of everything including pain, much better would be some tylenol/with codeine

[flamingskullballs]

it might help...the dentist will know, since hell be up close to you n such...

Brush your teeth thoroughly before you go in, to make them clean and to get rid of the smell lol

They say that rubbing C in the gums is good for reducing pain. In fact, it was used by dentists before novacaine - and it's safer and easier to use.

I never tried it for dental work but years ago, I used to rub leftover C power into my gums, directly from the tinfoil wrapping - which would make them numb. Everybody seemed to do that, lol.

Yeah you see it on films, the 5-0 testing to see if it's coke lol

Well, I think the best solution is to MANDATE your dentist give you Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas). As my doc knows I'm a reg toker, she increases it a bit to compensate as I'm a bit jaded... Anyway, with the right levels you will fell no anxiety. The pain itself can be remedied with novocaine, etc. but I'd hold off on the weed and DEMAND you get the GAS. Just my two Bahts worth....

[brrg744]

so what should i do? smoke or not?

[3 Sheets To The Wind]

I say you should smoke.. I would as i have never seen gas used over here, unless you get major stuff, they are mainly injections in your gums here (never had one luckily!)
My mum says the most painful thing she has ever had done at the dentist is when she was younger and had to have an injection in the roof of her mouth *shiver*

I have had unbelievable dental problems my whole life, mostly due to having celiac disease - which I did not find out I had until this year. The worst pain I experienced was once, about 30 years ago, when a tooth's nerve died. I could not get to a dentist that day, so I drank a pint of Jack Daniels straight down which helped somewhat. Having a dead nerve sucks. Instead of being sensitive to cold, it's extremely sensitive to heat. If this happens, then you KNOW you've got a serious problem.

On another happy note:
I read a story, years ago about a dental patient getting the shot of Novocain in the back of the mouth. The dentist missed the mark by a little, and injected the Novocain into the base of the patient's brain. The person went into a coma and died shortly thereafter. This is a good anecdote to tell people that are nervous about going to the dentist, lol.

[Funkamander]

I don't believe that brain story.

Anyway, OF COURSE you should toke before going. First, you know the dentist has had hundreds of patients come in blazed as fuck. He might not approve, but he's gotta be used to it. Secondly, even if it doesn't help the pain, at least it'll make staring up your dentist's nose a lot more interesting.

well i've never toked up before going to the dentist, I have after going. I had my upper wisdom tooth pulled once and it hurt like a sonofabitch. When it was pulled, it opened up a hole into my sinuses. the dentist told me not to smoke for however many hours, but when I got home I was hurting. Well, I packed the bowl and went to hit it, but all I got was a whistle. I couldn't get any suction going. The hole was sucking air through my nose whenever I tried to suck in. I ended up having to plug my nose and hit the pipe that way. It sucked but once I had a few hits, I didn't care.

[mellow mood]

get drunk

[Lily420]

The first time i got high was at the dentist. save ur weed, they'll drug you up.

Excuse me Mr. Dentist man but im feeling kind of fuzzy and my foot wont stop kickin to the beat of the music...wtf....i gotta come to the dentist more often!

[Melton420]

not funny waht so ever, you need to die

[seedbare]

where I live unless specifically asked for and payed for in advance they will not give you nitrous oxide or put you out with sodium pentothal these charges are not covered with insurance and it's about $200 for nitrous (ripoff I know) and $1000 to be put out.

pain is just weakness leaving your body[B]

[Caruso329]

No it's not, that's just the lame ass marine slogan and also the catch phrase of overweight people who work out.

[somebody someone]

Why dont we just cut ourselves instead of working out eh?
