yes, rest is important because you shouldn't bend down as it loosens the plug of blood in the tooth socket. Swish a bit of salt water in warm water around in your mouth three times a day too, that sets the socket and stops a lot of pain.

Poor you, you'll soon feel better xxxx

Thank you. The dentist said the teeth on either side of the one I had out are sensitive and may need to come out! He said in my case it has been caused by over-zealous brushing. Think I'll go back to a manual toothbrush. I can see me having false choppers before too long cos I haven't got many teeth left.

Honestly, teeth are nothing but trouble from start to finish.  You have trouble when they're coming through and they can cause no end of problems.

 

Hope that you feel better soon Carol.  ((((()))))

Hi Carol.

 

I hope your teeth are feeling better. 

 

I watched Health Freaks on TV recently and someone recommended coconut oil for sensitive teeth and gums. I am going to try it, as I have bleeding gums occassionally, 

 

I also used adult bonjela after having my wisdom tooth removed last year, that was a great pain soother. 

 

I hope you didn't mind my suggestions. I hope you feel better soon. 🙂

Awww my pleasure Carol. I know what you are going through after having my wisdom tooth out in Hospital, I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone. I hope the suggestions do help you. It is good to hear it is getting easier and you are glad you had it out. Did you have to wait long? ((Hugs))

Didnt have to wait at all; I had been a few times with the problem and had xrays etc, but I just phoned last Monday and had the tooth out that morning. xx
