I had a back tooth out on Wednesday, it had had a cap/crown in it for about 30 years but it fell out, had it put back in and it fell out again, so after some xrays they said the tooth has decay and needs to come out, but because it had been ground down there wasnt much visible tooth, anyway it took the girl about an hour to remove it.
Now Im left with a big crater and have had all these warnings about the 'blood clot'
apparently the bone is covered by the clot after extraction which if I disturb it I will have 'dry socket' which can be extremely painful for 7 to 10 days, as the bare bone will be showing, so Im on a kind of liquid diet, soup, yoghurt, mashed potatoes etc no chewing and no hot drinks.
Being very careful not to disturb the 'clot' (I hate the fucking clot !)
Fucking thing keeps aching like fuck...Im told its about a week or 10 days before the clot is safe.
Teeth are a fucking ball ache. I never knew about dry socket ffs, I really miss my tea and coffee.
Has any one else here had teeth issues ?
