Dentist couldnt remove tooth, what am i in for
Discussion
Bleeding in the tissues can lead to bruising down the fascism planes down neck unto chest! No dentist I've ever heard of has leaned on or used knees in chest to pull!!! As driller dmsaud. Dentists bend the bone sideways to remove tooth.!
Btw...the Aussi dentist was a bit negligent numbing both sides if your lower jaw to extract four teeth! The anaesthesia required could have lead you to swallowing your tongue! To gamble with death is not on the agenda!
Unless your story was a bit embellished......

Due to poor fillings I had in my teens, two molars in my lower jaw (opposite pairs) had cracked and were very painful. The dentist decided that a root canal was likely to fail, and that because the teeth were cracked, they would need to be surgically extracted.
Fine, I thought, but it wasn't going to be as simple as that. For her to refer me to surgery, she would have to prove that she couldnt remove them herself by snapping them in half. One side per visit, she numbed me up, clamped my tooth, and went at it. I expected her to be pulling it straight out of my jaw, but no, in order to get it to snap, she was literally trying to snap it, bending it perpendicular across my jaw like you would to snap a match. One hand was on whatever tool was gripping my tooth and the other cupping my chin so she could lean in and push against it as she pulled the tool on my tooth, until with a shuddering crack she jolted back and my tooth snapped in half. My jaw ached for days after!
I haven't been back for her to snap the other one yet...

My dentist has a bit of kit I'd throughly recommend.
It's a metered anaesthetic machine, using some exotic anaesthetic, and VERY small diameter needles. You can feel the initial touch of the needle to the inside of your motuh, then it lets out a very small amount as it goes in, to ease its passage as it were, then beeps at him when he's at the right depth, before bonging when it has dispensed the correct dose.
Usually he does one inside and one outside site per tooth in the general area, about 4 or 5 teeth worth in total, and everything is numb inside 30 seconds of him finishing.
Seeing as he likes to spend cash on this sort of thing, I dread to think what it cost, but I'd recommend it.

I had a similar problem with a tooth extraction to the OP recently. Decayed tooth that had to be extracted, the tooth disintegrated making it hard to get the root out without drilling down into the bone. At this point the dentist said I needed to go to see a dentist with a specialist kind of drill which minimised the bone damamge...this was important I was told to minimise bone damage as I may want to have an implant. Luckily the specialist dentist has a free slot that afternoon so it was cab across town and numbed up again and he had the root out in 15 mins....I think he refered to the drill as being cooled or something ? Can't remember. Maybe our learned friend Driller knows what I am talking about?
Cowgirl dentist.
It's you civil responsibility to think of the future of the human race. You must clean-up and send a message. This means you must kill them before you go and find another dentist.
If you can't live with it, just think of all the children she's undoubtably going to harm, much less the bigger picture, which is to advertise that cowboy's and cowgirls can persist, get well paid and live a fruitful life. Non-extermination of the inept is the most henious and devolving crime of modern society.

It is called the wand and from what I can remember it is quite expensive. Also from memory the application is also quite slow and thus, the cost of the procedure has to go up, due to the amount of chair time you are utilising as a patient.It's a metered anaesthetic machine, using some exotic anaesthetic, and VERY small diameter needles.

The anaesthetic though is just a standard dental anaestetic just smaller cartidges and the needles are finer.

Needles are definitely finer - recommended for any roof of the mouth application. By me, the patient, at least.
