First, let me say that I currently believe that almost all dentists just do not know what they are doing. I had a really good dentist for most of my 30s and then he retired (he was young so I honestly wondered if he decided it wasn't worth it) and I have found NOTHING but lying bull people who lie constantly ever since. I don't believe it is personal.. I just believe modern dentistry standards are wrong wayyy too much is left to interpretation.

But do you need to have those two teeth pulled? Get a second opinion. Check yelp for an oral surgeon who just does that all day. Yelpers will tell you who really is the best and who sucks.

True story last year. I had a dentist putting on a crown on a cracked tooth. This tooth was on the lower right right side. During the process.. the tooth on the upper right side became so painful I was sure it needed something. But it didn't. After the work was done on my crown and I stopped having someone fool around in my mouth... the pain stopped. The pain was intense even though there was nothing wrong with the tooth. I believe your teeth are connected and there can be a phantom pain.

I also had an extraction on a wisdom tooth. I also refused to do it when they said it needed to come out 20 years ago. But I did have it taken out when it became clear it was suffering a lot of decay that either the dentist couldn't get to during cleanings or refused to get to.

They sent me to a VERY rude man who seemed to act like I was being a baby and wanted to pull the tooth within 3 minutes of the novacine injection. I said HELL NO and left. Within 2 months I found a doctor on yelp who was MUCH better. A woman who only did tooth extractions. She gave me 20 minutes for the novacine to work, kept a blood pressure machine on my arm... and went in for the extraction.. hard... but, it lasted about 30 second and it was done. I felt "pressure" no pain. She had a consult with me before pulling the tooth and advised me to get liquid motrin as it would be easier to take... all about dry socket and even suggested that in the weeks before I eat Spinach (as it helps with clotting) and stock up with food that I could eat easily. She also suggested vitamin D to keep infection at bay.

The first day, I did a LOT of bleeding. But it healed... I didn't get dry socket and I didn't get an infection.

Finally I have turned to investigating natural means to take care of my teeth. Look up Weston Price and there are many natural things that you can take to keep your teeth in good shape. Such as bone broth.
