Ok so I made a post recently about having a cracked wisdom tooth and bring a little nervous about having it out.
Any way since Tuesday I've had real bad pain with my cracked lowerr wisdom tooth, I went to the dentist on Thursday to have I out, they did an xray to see how the tooth was growing etc, but after the xray they said that they couldn't pull it in the dentist as the root is curved and my nerve is too close to the root, he said that I need to be reffered to the hospital to have it out and the waiting list is 6-8 weeks....... 6-8 week wait!!!!
How is it ok to leave me in this pain for that long??? Since Tuesday I've had about 10 hours sleep.. I'm tired and in pain and it's making me so miserable and unable to do alot of things I could normally do,
He didn't give me a prescription for pain killers only for antibiotics even though there is no infection, I got laughed at for saying I can't swallow tablets and asking for a liquid version and i said I only has ever prescribed non tablet versions to kids and said tablets are easy to swallow and basically making ajoke of it all; ive always had a phobia of swallowing tablets...
Anyway I keep getting all panicky about my tooth, it's starting to hurt my ear and my jaw feels like it's going to snap.
Is there anyone in th3 UK that has any suggestions on how I can get the tooth out asap instead of waiting for the hospital referal???
