guys,

i got quoted RM350 to remove my 3rd wisdom tooth via surgery (at seremban) ..appointement is nexy monday..wish me good luck

good luck....

good luck!

i too just got my wisdom tooth removed recently,last wednesday actually.i finished my 5 day ccourse of antibiotics (amoxycillin 250mg),but now i experience pain (quite similar to that experienced on the first day only not so intense) when i eat/drink hot or sweet stuff..is that normal?

sorry can't be a helped, not too sure, had the same prob though, pain when hot or cold stuff,after awhile now there's no pain, but sometimes in the morning, after waking up and if i spit, i can feel there's blood
had mine remove 2 months back, prob is, they can't get it all out (might damage the nerves), there's a partial/tiny bit left inside,

it's not normal.... sounds like your 2nd molar(the one in front of the wisdom tooth) may have a cavity or the roots are exposed due to surgical removal of your wisdom tooth..... check with your dentist when you go back to remove the stitches...

oh my that sounds pretty scary.won''t the leftover tooth rot in your gums,thus leading to pain?

but i did mmine at UH n was told by the dentist that the sutures would dissolve by themselves.so far i think 90% of the stitches have disappeared.yeah she diod say my x-ray showed caries on my 2nd molar.today when i ate i didn't feel the pain,so strange

according to the doc, it's ok and i hope so, my mum had experienced the same things, prob is, her leftover tooth rot and started to cause pain
did the extraction/operation again and it's all good

having second thought on removing the other one

might see the dentist again soon, gotta do a little scaling

you should go get that 2nd molar patch up a couple of weeks from now....

drbarbarian,ok will do.now i'm waiting for my stitches to completely dissolve =) BTW does sscaling actually lead to an increasse in teeth sensitivity?and also does it cause ur teeth to get yellower coz it removes ome kinda protective layer on ur tooth?

kumbang,good to hear that it's ok but if it's bleeding u oughta get ur dentist to look at it

scaling does cause your teeth to be a little more sensitive for a week or so.... it doesn't remove any 'protective' layer and won't cause your teeth to go yellow.....

k thanx

Hi i have to agree that doing at the goverment hospital is not bad at all. Because of the exorbitant cost of doing it in a private clinic i opted to do it with the government and was sent to HKL. My experience was similar, the position of my tooths root plus the fact that it was infected made it a dificult task to get the tooth out. I had a very nice dentist who worked on my tooth but a specialist had to come in halfway to complete it due to the nature of my tooths situation. The overall procedure only cost me Rm 55 and they were very professional when it came to doing their work + i had a specialist working on my tooth! ( i bet that wud have cost a bomb if it was private)

The only downside to doing it in a government hospital is the long wait for your turn. If you have the time and patience, i suggest you get it done with the government. They have the experience and its worthit
