i have to have my tooth out in hospital

[southeastastra]

i don't know why they can't just take it out in the surgery.

anyone had this, do they put you to sleep? i forgot to ask

DS 2 had to go to hospital, it was a GA because complicated, good luck.

I have had teeth removed at hospital and at a special clinic. In the hospital I was given a general anaesthetic, and at the special clinic I was 'sedated'.

I don't remember anything about either of the procedures, but it was quite sore afterwards.

I had 3 wisdom teeth out in hospital, with general anaesthetic. In that case it was mostly because of it being 3 of them, but they can also do it there when they expect it to be a bit trickier than usual, maybe because of how the roots are. I had one out previously in the surgery and that was rather unpleasant. They must have had a reason for making it hospital - do you have a meeting with the hospital doctor or nurses before the op, so you can ask about stuff?

i hope so amuminscotland, had a tooth out last year which led to complications but that was in a surgery.

I had bottom 2 wisdom teeth out last month under GA at the hospital. In at 8, had operation about 12, was out at 2, face was VERY VERY swollen for 4 days afterwards- looked like desperate dan , went down completely after a week. Quite sort but managable with pain killers - esp disolvable co-codamol. Plenty of soft foods. You'll be fine.

I had some out in hospital. It was by choice because I was a wuss. I had GA.

I actually enjoy having GA [weirdo]

Unfortunately having them out in hospital can also have complications . But if the tooth needs to come out, then that's just something you have to accept. They don't usually suggest taking them out without some pretty good reasons.

I had 2 wisdom teeth out in hosp had a local i could hear the crunch of the teeth, couldnt feel it thou (sorry that probably didnt help) it was fine, in and out in ten minutes. Even had cheese pie for my tea, cooked by my husband thou, you have to make the most of it dont you.

My jaw has a habit of dislocating thats why I had mine done at hospital. It was fine thou and im sure you will be fine.
