Hey guys!
I had a tooth extracted about a week ago, it's my last molar on the top right side of my mouth, I was worried i would have issues chewing, i still have not had a chance to test it out.. but I dont think i'm going to like the results. Anyone missing two molars have issues with chewing?
On to the reason for my post! I've seen dentist after dentist, after dentist. Each of them told me an oral surgeon needs to pull this tooth ( I think you will see why in the tooth pic i posted below ), the roots were huge, and were quite deep. Anyways, I went and saw a new dentist, and a filling in the broken tooth ( they had to grind away the decay, and put in a temp filling ), the filling kept coming out, so i put in a temp filling from CVS. I got tired of it, so i called this new dentist, and told him i wanted them to just fill it in for me until my insurance kicked in for the full root canal. While i was their, he said this tooth is shot, insurance wont pay, etc etc, i believed him, he wanted to pull it. I explained to him that everyone told me it's not just " pullable ", and he said " i'm not everyone ", now i've had a molar pulled before, so i knew what to expect, however, i had a surgeon do it, he made cuts, and even sewed me up afterwords, pain lasted 4 days, and i was good to go. This guy shot me up, and went to town, he was pulling so hard he had to get someone to come hold my head, the pressure hurt. I hear the tooth cracking off of my gum line. Anyways, when he pulled the tooth out, i demanded to see it, because i immediately felt like something was wrong. The tooth has some sort of red stuff stuck to it, not sure what it is, i've attached a picture, hoping someone here might know what it is. Additionally, the extraction site has tons of tiny bone spurs sticking out, it's so high on the gum line it's cutting my cheeks, inflaming the gums, refusing to get any better. hurts to sniffle
, cough, or anything with my mouth. Eating is out of the question. I called them, and they said the bone spurs were normal, and didnt even want to look at them. they made me bite on some gauze, gave me my tooth, took my cash, and are now done with me. Does this sound normal?
