Tooth extraction tomorrow so scared

[Natalie2389]

I have to have a upper molar extraction tomorrow so scared :( so worries something is going to go wrong . I don’t no
If I can do it .. anyone had one done ? Will I be ok.. thanks

I had one done last year. It wasn't anything like as bad as I expected, just a bit of toothache afterwards. Just think - this time tomorrow it will be over x

Over before you know it... Could be a bit sore with some bleeding so don't be alarmed. Rinse with warm salt water to aid healing.

It is always so much worse in your head than the actual act. Take a couple of paracetemols about half an hour before you go. After the injections, which these days are virtually painless, keep your eyes closed until it is all over. You may hear a slight crunch but will certainly feel no pain. Rinse with salt water etc - they do give you written instructions these days. And there should be no pain afterwards at all. The injections will take a good few hours to wear off.

To everyone that relied I had it out 3 weeks ago .. hole still not closed over jelly like feeling in hole is this normal I am freaking out

It should have healed over by now. Ring the dentist in the morning for a checkup just to put your mind at rest. But nothing too much to worry about - it should be fine.
