Hey toribash, my dentist told me i need
To get braces / which im fine with /
But he said he needs to extract two
Teeth.. which im fucked scared about!
Is anyone else going through this?
Support would be appriciated

discuss teeth.

Yeah, I'm supposed to get braces sometime next month, but they need to get some teeth out of the way.

I'm not really scared about getting teeth pulled or anything. Just numb me up and I'm good.

Yeah, i have to wear braces because i was born with crooked teeth and a very deep overbite. I'm still on the first thing (retainer i think) and the problem is, i have to take it out to eat even though i''m not meant to, because i can't bite all the way down with it in. D:
Luckily i don't think i have to have any teeth taken out, and i hope i never do.

It's not that i mind tooth extraction,
but I FUCKING HATE NEEDLES!
This is SRSBSNS, i CANNOT STAND NEEDLES!!

Im happy that I dont need to get braces. I guess it hurts alot.

It usually takes 4 shots of novicane on one side of my cheek just so I dont feel the pain, I have such a low pain tolerance...

I fucking hate needles too.. its hell

Ok the hate of needles here just made me feel extremely tough. It's normal to get 2 teeth taken out when getting braces, to free up space in your mouth. Luckily I have an incredible pain threshold(went to a damn russian dentist, who didn't bother to fully numb my teeth). Its a normal process, don't be so scared of it. Just grab the arm-pieces of the chair, look straight up, and imagine your in your happy place just as a puma swings at your mouth with its claws. Believe it or not, its painless.

I recently had to get toe surgery, and I was awake during the whole thing. I had an ingrown nail and the doctor numbed my toe with about 14 needles, from whatever angles possible to numb the nerves.


Remember, needles aren't what cause pain, doctors are. Be afraid of doctors, not needles.

P.S. I'm a type 1 diabetic and have to normally shoot myself up 3-4 times a day with insulin. Luckily I got a pump.

My mom just had tooth extraction this summer and her dentist said that she can't eat some certain foods for a while.

But the tooth extraction was painless except for the injection.
Besides,if you're still gonna have circumcision,this is like a pretest cuz you'll be injected too

Circumcisions are mostly for people who need dentures.

I really hope that I never develop any teeth problems, with my smoking and what not.

I have avoided braces since my teeth really don't look that bad just on their own. They're just normal teeth.
