Hi Pamster,
Well I am SO glad that bad tooth is out!! But I'm sorry you are in pain :-(
Did the dentist give you a prescription for pain meds?
Even OTC advil or motrin works pretty well if you take it before the hard pain sets in. It's not as effective if you wait too long.
I'm sure you are relieved to have this over with....... please follow the post op instructions and rinse with warm salt water starting tomorrow. The salt water helps the area to heal and it keeps it clean too.
Thanks for checking back in with us....... hope to hear from you again soon.

He told me it would heal up fine now. THe novacaine is wearing off and it's hurting now. But at least it's all over.
