The General Discussion Thread

sorry

can you get english chocolate in germany

do british people have a high rate of diabetes people

I did local, so I was awake the ENTIRE TIME. I am not going to lie to you, that was the scariest thing I have ever done in my life. I didn't feel a thing, but I was sweating the entire time. My surgeon was EXCELLENT, but I would have gone with general anesthesia if I had known what I was in for.

I had mine done a long time ago so I think the oral surgeon is retired by now. But go for the full knock-out if you can. I didn't have any swelling and had a fast recovery.

I heard that sometimes when you just have a local anesthetic or laughing gas, you're still too awake and you tense your neck and jaw muscles in resistance to the back-and-forth tugging.

If you're squeamish or have a low tolerance for pain, then general is probably best.

I got mine out back in high school and had the general anesthetic. I fell asleep and woke up in a different room (which was weird), but I didn't remember a thing and had no pain.

Chocolate buttons were so sweet I feel sick though >_>

I had a wisdom tooth extracted a couple of years ago--only local anesthetic was used. I was definitely anxious, but to be honest, it didn't hurt at all, and the whole thing took less than two minutes. The worst thing about it was my awareness of the brute strength the surgeon used to haul the thing out of my head. Disconcerting, yes. Painful, not at all. And I was able to drive myself home.

I had all 4 done with local. They weren't impacted or anything difficult. Literally 10 minutes for all 4. Easiest money that oral surgeon made.

i pussied out of local. i was already in the chair, ready to get it done. the thought of hearing my teeth cracking was too much. general was easy as cake...

I think if I went for local I'd start freaking out, I mean last time I had a blood test I couldn't sleep all night and was shaking for ages before mmm

such a pussy

does germany have an NHS kinda thing or is it all with insurance companies and privates or what

with local I'll probably be shaking and panicking and stuff.

When I thought I was definitely getting general I wasn't at all scared about it

idk there are risks with general jaja.. so can't take the decision lightly uhuh Also it's like 300 euros so

Exactly, increased chance of DEATH, expensive, you feel woozie and like shit for at least a day, maybe more, on top of the pain. More possible complications. Harder to get an appointment. Should just do it local, the dentist said it looks like an easy extraction, too.

For some reason I imagine the anesthetist will be really thin and freaky looking, y'know uhuh and they'll let me die for the thrill of taking human life uhuh

what will you get if you don't get local
