I went in because I had a very bad cavity in one of my molars. The dentist showed me my x-rays and told me I also needed my wisdom teeth removed. She decided she was going to remove all five teeth (wisdom and a molar) at once. When the nurse came to numb me they, didn't give me any gas or anything, just drove a giant needle with novacaine in my gums, and went into another patients room to do his procedure. They had waited just long enough for the numbing to start wearing off when she cut into my gums and started prying my wisdom teeth out. I was in so much pain, but I was told "Its not that bad" and when I reached the point of crying uncontrollably she said she couldn't continue if I kept crying. She said I would have to go to an oral surgeon at OSU for my last widsom tooth. When I went they refused to pull it because it didn't need to be done, and told me I may end up needing a root canal after the damage she had caused to that side of my mouth. I lost my job because I couldn't get time off to heal on such short notice, and I couldn't eat solid food for 3 weeks because of the swelling and the pain. Sorry if this was graphic, but I suggest you stay as far away from there as possible.
