    It took ages Linda, the full 45 minutes of my appointment. She apparently has to ......cant remember the word she used...anyway, divide it up into 4 pieces. It had bent bits, that are normally straight and I was very close to needing an oral surgeon apparently :eek:

    I havent dared clean my teeth, will I cause any problems? I will do it as soon as we have running water again, and rinse with salt water too.

    Clean the teeth around it VERY CAREFULLY, if you do rinse do it VERY gently so as not to disturb the clot.
    Did you have a suture placed after then extraction and did she pack the socket with some brown stuff?

    If the pain starts to get worse go back because it may be getting infected (a dry socket)

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    No sutures that I know of hun. She did pack it with something, but I'm not sure what colour it was. She said it would dissolve slowly :confused:

    Dynorod are here, so hopefully water will be back on soon.
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
