I am going to the dentist tomorrow to have 2 molars removed. They have cavities. So far no infection, but one tooth is pretty fixed to my jaw, so I was referred to an Oral surgeon. However I can not get him because I do not have the medical coverage.

Anyway, I am just really nervous about going to the dentist as it will be the first time I have to go since I got PN over a year ago.

I am concerned about many things, one is the pain from pulling the teeth, the needle anesthetic and other stuff.

More so, even taking antibiotics after the tooth extractions, which I hear is not needed by many dentists in the field.

Please, help me with these concerns and help put my mind to rest on this. I suspect, maybe all will be fine, and perhaps there is no more reason for me to be concerned about dental issues anymore than I was before I got PN, which I do hope is the case.

Please let me know what you all think. --Jesse M.
