#teeth extraction

[deathbywhump]

I love a good teeth extraction scene during torture. Pulling each tooth out while a whumpee cries or tries to bear it. The whumpee licking their gums after realising that the tooth had been pulled out from the root. A messy extraction without pain killers. Bits of calcium still left inside the gum. It's throbbing, it's painful. Blood from each extraction.

Eventually the whumpee just cries for it to be all over. That they can't take any more of this. That this is their limit.

I love it so much.

Since it's been two weeks, I should hopefully be in the clear for dry socket, so my update is that I didn't experience any pain or even swelling after my wisdom teeth extraction. I literally could've gone back to work within a few hours of the extraction (after I finished bleeding). I only experienced very mild soreness when I was a few hours late on my pain medicine, and even that was minimal compared to, say, a canker sore.

Granted, I had a very simple extraction, and only my bottom 2. From what I understand, most people have a harder time than I did and need to take a few days before returning to regular activities like work. And I absolutely believe the people who say the pain is the worst they've felt - everybody reacts to procedures differently.

But there are so many horror stories on the internet that I figured I would share my uneventful story in case anyone needs a similar procedure and is anxious about it. People with uneventful procedures like mine often don't feel the need to talk about them, so they may seem less common than they are.

This is Eloise. She's a beautiful five year old kitty with the softest fur and a funny colored tail that looks like a toasted marshmallow. I met Eloise two months ago at the shelter and fell madly in love with her. But, at the time, I couldn't take her home with me. Periodically, I would check up...

if you could share this it’d really mean the world to me~

I'm getting braces soon, so I've decided to track my dental journey here on tumblr!

I have a pretty crooked overbite. I also have a low gum line, but I'm not really sure what that means. My mouth is small, so my teeth are kind of crowded. They used to be more crowded, but I had 4 teeth pulled a few years ago.

I'm 15. The reason I'm getting braces so late is because when I was little I learned that braces were used as torture devices in the middle ages and it really freaked me out.

Anyway, here's what my teeth look like now:

My friend and her cat need help

My friend, who is like a sister to me. Has a cat, Tilly; needs to have her teeth extracted. Tilly is barely eating and losing weight due to the pain and inflammation in her mouth. My friend lives on her own and can barely make ends meet as it is. Luckily she can make a down payment but without making it Tilly can’t get the surgery she desperately needs. And we worry the worst for Tilly if she cannot get the surgery as soon as possible.

This is absolutely why dental care and health is so important. Both photos are of the teeth located in the lower right quadrant of a dog. The top photo shows healthy premolar teeth. The tooth roots are solidly attached to the surrounding bone by the periodontal ligaments, there are no cracks to the crown, and there is no lucency at the apex of the teeth. The bottom photo shows severe dental disease. The tooth roots look mottled, there are large apical abscesses, and the bone has completely eroded away leaving the jaw exceptionally fragile. When we ignore dental health, plaque begins to accumulate on the teeth. Plaque is a soft film that is full of millions of bacteria. If left on the teeth, plaque eventually hardens into calculus. Calculus sits on the teeth at the gum line and will cause gingival recession and eventually infection will travel down the tooth root, loosening the periodontal ligaments and causing the tooth to become mobile. Once infection continues down the tooth root, it can cause large abscesses at the base of the root which will cause bone degradation. Animals absolutely require dental care, and regular brushing like we do can prevent issues like this from becoming this bad. Imagine what our teeth would look like if we didn't brush! There are other options if you are unable to brush your pet's teeth like water additives, chews (NOT BONE OR ANTLER), and professional cleanings that will improve your pet's oral health. It is recommended that you get your pet's teeth professionally cleaned under anesthesia to prevent these issues. Non-anesthetic cleanings are not effective and do not improve your pet's oral health. PET ORAL HEALTH IS IMPORTANT!!!!
