went to the dentist...get to go to an oral surgeon
the tooth in question is too far gone to save


took an x-ray and dentist can't pull it cause the roots are entwined with another tooth so I lose two

1. When offerred anesthesia, take it.
I put several oral surgeons into new cars (root problems, very bad for the teeth over time.)
If you don't have to be awake, don't - it's much better not to remember any of it.
Also, give yourself enough time to recover before going back to your regular life - surgery is surgery, even if it's teeth.

Good luck.

4. Indeed. The day os so after the procedure will be a little tough,
but actually you will probably feel some relief to hav it over with.
Again, good luck.

3. i have a tooth or two that could stand to be pulled..
they are rotten and the fillings are failing but they don't hurt. So they will stay put until they start hurting. Both molars.

I used to drive truck and snorted a lot of meth that rotted out my four bottom, front teeth. They were so infected and painful that it felt good when they yanked them out of my head. Teeth suck.
