Hubs and I have dentists all over the place. He sees one up north. I see a different one up north. Here in Florida, we go to the same dental office for our cleanings.
While getting our teeth cleaned this past January (appointments already made for next January) they discovered that hubs needed a crown replaced, and I needed a wisdom tooth extracted. No hurry they said.
Hubs already had the first of two appointments, but guess who has a wad of gauze in her mouth right this minute?

Ouch! Tooth extraction is such a pain especially the wisdom tooth. But I'm pretty sure your dentist has gentle hands.

I'm sorry. It is not fun to go through. I had all 4 taken out when I was 17 and could only eat soup, pudding and ice cream for a week. It was awful.

My wisdom teeth had to come out when I was 16 and it was a horrific ordeal. I'm still leery of dentists.
I hope everything goes well for both of you.

I was still at university when all my wisdom teeth were bothering me, I had a really good oral surgeon and he removed all four of my wisdom teeth in one sitting and gave me a prescription and off I went.

I’m not a fan of going to the dentist….but sometimes these things have to be done.

I hope that went smoothly. I originally got two wisdom teeth, one rotted away and had to be removed so when the other developed decay a couple of years later I opted to remove that too, since it had nothing to bite against anyway. They gave me painkillers to take home but I didn't know what they were for.

Yuck, I hate to go to the dentist. I didn't get my wisdom teeth until my 50s.
