For the first time ever I have to have a filling today. So does my daughter. Problem is, I have this rather nice lump of dead cow in my fridge that I was gonna roast, this afternoon. Now, for those of you that already have fillings, can you tell me... Do we eat before we go? Will we be able to eat, pretty much, straight after? Please.. I need to know. :cry:
Not really supposed to eat before you go, and you're supposed to wait a few hours before eating afterwards - then after that its down to how you personally feel; i had 2 at once and was eating normally almost instantly.
Brush before you go.... You can eat bout two hours afterwards... numbness wears off.. DO NOT TRY TO EAT while numb.. you might bite more than your dead cow... :shock: :shock: Best of luck darling...
First of all Congratulations on not needing a filling until now!!! I'd have a couple of bits of toast to keep you going, depending on what time of day the appointment is. As cisco says, dont try and eat till you can feel your tongue or that will be your dinner... and watch out for hot coffee or tea, thats likely to burn you without you knowing.... Have Fun! nic x
What they said.... and no vigorous exercise for 24 hours either (or so a dentist once told me ).................... so only gentle shagging til tomorrow Vix! :lol: :lol: :lol: Nuff said about the dead cow :shock: :shock: :shock:

Now you're just being silly! App is at 1600hrs. I could cook when we get home, after. Beef will be a couple hours cooking... eh, will report back later. (It's gonna hurt, isn't it?)
Vix if you have the white fillings you can eat as soon as you can control your mouth. Its only if you have the metal ones that you need to wait about 4 hours. If you need an injection then they can be painful but its not too bad, honest. What I find worse is when your mouth is defrostingfrom the injection. Its well wierd not knowing if you have a boggie coming out your nose or dribble running down your chin :lol2: Good luck

Thanks Dawn, It will be white, as the metal ones are a no-no for us MSers, apparantly. Will look forward to dribbling at my webcam, later, then.
Yep....as the others said, plus watch yourself when trying to drink anything - the numbness in the side of your face often means you can't tell that the coffee is running out of the corner of your mouth until it's halfway down your neck! Dr Yehaf's practical prescription - dress in your rudest underwear and drink with a straw....it'll make you feel young AND sexy.

Hmmm 2 hours later and no Vix.... I guess she has found out you were all lying to her and it will hurt like a bastard.... as the Tooth-Quack hacks away at pieces of gum with a bolster-chisel, trying to find those last pieces of tooth that shattered in the extraction... while a slightly pretty looking assistant looks on grimacing at the sheer horror of what's unfolding, before she runs off to fetch yet more towels to soak up the blood. Then to top off a horrendous experience, they then stick a fecking tampon in your mouth and say bite on that! Ha... evil sick twisted practicioners of savage butchery I hate ya's all... and to top it all off.... YOU pay THEM! (ps... the details above really did happen to me on my last visit to a dentist... shattered tooth on extraction, took an hour and a half to dig out all the bits! Fecking wonderful that was!)
Didn't feel a thing. Ate the half a cow (Jas, I was taking prep and whatever into consideration... it was a BIG lump of cow) Drank a leeetle bit of red - as ya do - and now need a nap. R is snoring away already. Thanks for the support, friends.
Nasssty. You have my sympathies - the nerves in the tooth take a few days to adjust to their new covering and will be sensitive. You've probably already discovered that it's wise to avoid very hot or cold substances in your mouth. Dr Yehaf's practical prescription - try omelettes...they're soft, tasty, nutritious, can be enjoyed at medium temperatures and have the added benefit that they can't be made without breaking eggs, at least three of which you'll hopefully spill all down your front and then show us the result in one of those glorious photo montages.
DO NOT TRY TO EAT while numb.. you might bite more than your dead cow... :shock: :shock: quote] Yeah, one of my mates thought he was biting an undercooked chip, turned out to be his bottom lip :lol: Well, it made me laugh :lol:
