Anyone here ever experience "dry socket"?

hey,

Now, I know you're all thinking that "dry socket" is like dry mouth or something, but it isn't! I mean from getting your wisdom tooth/teeth pulled and the bloodclot doesn't fully clot.

I experienced the worst kind of pain last week, but mostly on Sunday. I had a wisdom tooth removed, and the clot stayed, but there was a little pocket of air behind my main molar, right in front of where the wisdom tooth was pulled. Air was getting in and my nerves had been going of like static, killing my mouth.

So I was wondering if anyone else had the pleasure of this pain? :rolleyes: I have had my cheek bone smashed in before (literally) and this pain I felt from my tooth, was like, a 100x worse than getting beat down. PURE PAIN!! :mad:

If anyone out there is getting some teeth pulled, if you're going to smoke weed, use a pipe that is as easy as breathing in air. DO NOT rinse your mouth out for 24hrs. I had completly forgot about that one, my blood clot didn't fully clot, and...the pain....

Peace :cool:

hey man :) yeah i read the story of you getting mugged earlier :( sry for that

I'm currently in a crazy one-on-one with my upper right wisdom tooth too.
But that's apparently nothing compared to your shit :eek: crazy pain man.
You can make your blood clot faster by taking something of which i forgot the english translation... You were born in holland right? It's called bloedplaatjes in dutch.
all the best man, get wasted :) ease the pain!
*passes fat joint to chowder*

hey it's called thrombosytes (or platelets)

I've had them all out!! Went to a "Teaching Hospital" and some tiny chinese girl was trying for the life of her to wrench them out!! she didn't have enough strenght!!lol Didn't hurt though coz of the injection before but I could still feel her yanking away and apologizing in her funny accent!!

A week later i had the other side removed and they didn't use enough anesthetic!! and as he started to yank I nearly jumped out of the window....Took three shots in the end!

Yes, I have heard of that, it may have been the stuff he gave me yesterday.

First, he froze me up, then he had to flush the clot again. Then he shoved this brown stuff, looked just like tobacco, and put in in the wisdom tooth hole. It tasted horrid! Of cloves, very, very strong taste, and what it doesn, is it obsorbed all the moisture in my mouth and blood in my tooth hole, filling up that little pocket of air, but hey man, my mouth is a thousand times better that it was. I can actually smoke buds without getting a throbbing pain in my mouth. :p

I was curious if anyone here has blown the entire clot before. Mine was about, 15% missing, and that brought me to tears a few days ago, so I couldn't imagine a full blown clot.

There is no pain like mouth pain, and after years of my folks saying, "take care of your teeth", and about 8 fillings later, I have finally leanred my lesson. It isn't something someone can understand the pain of until you feel it yourself.

No worries about the beatdown :thumbsup: Happened about 6yrs ago now and my nerves in my face are finally coming back to normal now. Just a little guy too! Made me change the way I think about shorter people :p

Peace

Ooooo nasty man, nasty!

I've had about 3/4 of a tooth filled once, and they hit the root of my tooth. :eek: I felt my blood run cold and everything went white with lightning pain!

Don't worry about your teeth yanked. If you're getting surgery done where it requires stitches, it won't be so bad. Like me though, the tooth was grown in but heavily decayed, so it was just an extraction, but that leaves you withh a dime sized hole in your mouth.

You'll be fine, get blazed before surgery and you'll be good :thumbsup: I know I did :D

Hell ya! That guy was about a ft shorter than me, maybe more, and he did the most damage. It was like a fury of tiny fists.

Moving on though...........:)

When I was little I had an absest (sp) I hardly remember it but I am told I was wailing in pain for a while. My mom had both her wisdom teeth pulled recently (don't know why so late) and was drugged up for a good week afterwards lol. I don't think she was feeling much bad things then.

THAT SUCKS THO!

Ya, an absest (sp?) tooth can send you into a coma if not removed right away.

It's not the tooth pulling that hurts afterwards, that's just a little discomfort, I mean when the hole doesn't clot up all the way. Air gets to your root and it's like a downed powerline, sparking in the wind. Just electric pains of shock go through your body every 2seconds. Terrible pain.

The dentist assistant told me at first that I had to have a root canal. I almost jumped out of the chair and killed her :p Thanks goodness I didn't though, because that sounds, unpleasant.

Some people don't need their wisdom teeth out at all in their lifetime. I got mine out because of heavy decay, some get them out because they are pushing on all of your other teeth. My 2 bottom wisdoms are fine (so far) and don't need to be removed.

Peace

I could have gone into greater detail, but I didn't want to gross people out :p

Like, sticking a dentistry instrument into my blood clot hole to duplicate the pain I have been feeling. I almost died, well, at least it felt that way

I had mine done over a year about (about 2) and luckely I didn't get dry socket. It all went well. All of my wisdom teeth were extracted and I didn't even take pain meds after and the whole recovery!
