Hospital agreed to teeth extraction due to heart condition and meds !!

After 3 different dentists refused to take a tooth out due to an abscess which has now caused another tooth next to it needing to come out. The fourth is one of my local hospitals has agreed to do it.

It’s taken over a year from having the crown coming off my tooth and a bit of an ache to pain relief several times a day, earache etc to get to this point.

I have a phone consult next week with the consultant, so hope that goes well.

I knew having heart conditions can cause concern to professionals doing dental work, with that and my meds is why I’ve had so much trouble getting someone to agree to do it.

Who would’ve thought having teeth out would make me happy!!!!! 🙄

It’s been a long time coming.

Serious health conditions, covid etc etc obviously comes first.

Feel guilty that I’ll be at hospital having it done rather than a dentists, but this is where I’ve found myself after trying dentists who’ve refused to do it, on the other hand cannot wait to get this done ✅

Great news for a Saturday morning, it certainly has been a long time coming, but at last you can get it sorted.There is no need to feel guilty, with your medical conditions that’s where you need to be.

Let us know when you get a date, you made me smile being happy about having a tooth out! But can really appreciate how you feel.

Hope your doing ok, have a good Saturday.

I’m fine thank you 😊

Been a bit of a difficult week for various reasons, cherry on the cake is my teeth are being sorted, if I could I’d send a before and after photo 😂

I’m sure walnut whips are just as yummy being sucked, the nut may be a bit of a stretch but I’d give it a go 😂

I hope you and your husband are feeling and recovering ok 🤗 xx

My Grandmother had lost all her teeth by the time I was born but she still managed to eat nuts, even Brazils. She used to shave thin slivers off with a knife. Just think of the anticipation, by the time you finish the nut on one walnut whip it will be time to start sucking the next one.😊

So much to look forward to 😂😂 cannot wait to start the first one lol it would take weeks, luckily it’s just 2 teeth and will heal quickly so I can make up for it afterwards, either that or start on the curly Wurlies toffee is easier to warm in your mouth then it can slide down nicely 👍😂

Luckily they are right at the back, maybe I’ll notice a difference on the weighing scales, if only they had a good weight to them lol mind you if that was so the tooth fairy would have to bring a truck to collect them 🤭🤭🤭🤪

I know, I had to whip away until they agreed lol

With the way the world is at the moment I’m pleased it’s getting done but understand it’s not priority so I’m very lucky to get seen or at least a phone consultation. Hope you’re ok 👍 xxx

Yeah I got woken up at 5 to 3am and again at 10 past 4am! Really not with it yet chest really tight and not pleasant this morning. Don't think it's going to be a very productive day!! Possibly getting white fluffy stuff tomorrow nice to look at but that's as far as it goes! Cankles were puffy yesterday more so my left one? Not too bad at the moment but there's still time!

How bout you? Xx
