Experiences with

Tooth extraction

A massive thank you to so many kind kind people who took the time to help me out.True goodness. Dentist agreed, no need to stop although I had already missed one. Offending tooth is out. Couple of stitches to close and so far so good. I might miss tonight’s dose so 2 tabs in total. Such a terrible worrier

I am having a tooth out at the dentist at midday and haven't been looking forward to it. I am on 3mg Pred and reading the post about the broken tail bone - wondered if a slight increase might help? Last extraction was pretty unpleasant and although I am hoping this one won't be too bad I am not counting

Do I stop Clopidogrel before tooth extraction? Who do I ask? No one seems sure? Many thanks in advance.

thank you so much to all of you that posted advice- I had the extraction- a gruelling process as the tooth crumbled and came out in bits. This was expected as it was previously root canal treated and the roots get brittle. Anyway I took an extra 1mg Pred that morning and felt ok.

I had a tooth extraction on Friday, but didn't think and wasn't advised to stop rivaroxaban the day before, as there was a 20 hour gap. Once I got home, the blood began to appear and built up to a somewhat worrying level despite biting down on gauze wads.

I have been in persistent Afib since the beginning of January this year, previously I had paroxysmal Afib for 11 years. My Apple Watch says I am in Afib 100 per cent of the time. I am 70 next month and need 1 molar and the wisdom tooth next to it extracted. I am worried that if I stop xarellto I may

I just want to thank all the kind and helpful people who responded to my post about my husband's tooth extraction prior to triple bypass surgery.

I’m having a tooth out next Wednesday. I’m taking 3mg of prednisolone. I’ve been off AA for nearly a year. What is the advice for this procedure please?

I am about to have several teeth extracted and my dentist has insisted that I do not need to stop the Edoxaban. I and slightly concerned as every procedure I have undergone that involved potential bleeding I have had to stop any anti coagulation for a few days. Anyone got an opinion/ experience of

Is it OK to have a tooth extraction 2 weeks after Rituximab infusion?

Got to have an upper tooth extracted on Tuesday. I take edoxaban 30mg. Last time I am almost sure I didn't have to stop taking it and there were no problems. I phoned the dentist to check and he said ask your GP. I KNOW i asked my GP last time and was told "ask your dentist".....but despite this

I know this is a well worn path!! As I was having extraction with dentist I'd never met, I specifically asked his preference and was told to continue Apixaban as normal.I did omit this morning's dose in spite of that. He was a super star asked if I'd eaten then said "I understand you've had conflicting

1 year today since cryo Ablation.I have survived COVID,Wisdom tooth extraction.7 day Norovirus which definitely gave me a couple of days of Arrythmia readings (not AFib).Still some excercise intolerance & fitness slipped but everyday a bonus.

I have a tooth extraction I desperately need doing - but the risks of sedation or GA are too high at the moment and no-one will touch it until I get some kind of control over my thyroid so as well as hyperthyroid, I have tooth pain on a daily basis, sinus pain from TED and am generally miserable.

I may be in need of a tooth extraction. I am told by both Endocrinology and my Internist that it is OK to go ahead and take these type of medications now, but that is not the impression I received from my primary dentist. Another doctor, who does my annual breast exam suggested I wait.

I'm having the remains of a broken tooth extracted in two days time and because its apparently going to be a bit tricky, I'm going to be sedated. On offer is, - sedation by gas (nitrous oxide & oxygen) - intravenous sedation ( midazolam) The first option seems to have almost immediate recovery afterwards

Went for a molar tooth extraction yesterday. It had cracked at the side of an old filling and extraction is the only option.

This is my first tooth extraction for some 15 years and my biggest molar (which has cracked) which caused an infection, now on antibiotics for 5 days. Should I increase my Steroids for a few days?

So, for a anyone with an imminent tooth extraction...try not to worry. Its not something I'd choose to have done but it's been easier than expected. Reassurances from here helped enormously, and I felt well prepared for the experience.
