Question about my Dentist visits?!
Question: Question about my Dentist visits!?
Well, I went to the dentist a few months ago and when he started putting the novacaine in my gum, I could feel it leaking out into the front of my mouth (i am experienced with dental visits) and I told him it didnt' numb it when he came in!. He ignored me and drilled!. Let me tell you it hurt like you couldn't believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He said it was "just a nerve"!. Isn't that what novacaine is susposed to do!? Numb the lip, gum and tooth including nerves!?!?!? Next, I drink tons of soda and I brush my teeth three times a day and floss but my teeth continue to decay rapidly!. I tried to stop drinking soda but it makes me mad when I don't get it, I've tried 6 times and quit for a week but then well, I started drinking twice as much!. I don't buy the groceries so I cannot escape it!.!.!. it is all in my head is what people tell me!. Women in my family all have bad teeth, the men's are perfect and straight while ours are crooked, ugly & decaying!.!.!. Any advice!? I live with family still for college save$Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
With the anesthetic: yes it is supposed to numb the nerves!. The dentist should have listened and then added more anesthetic when you told him you weren't numb!.
Now the soda!.!.!.
It takes about 20 minutes after each sip of soda for the acid to neutralize in your mouth!. The best thing for your teeth and the rest of your body would be to quit the soda but I know it's hard! Try to limit to maybe 1 a day if you can!. My advice would be to drink your soda all at once rather than sip on it for a period of time!. Also, rinse your mouth with water after drinking the soda!. Keep up with the brushing and flossing!. Try using a fluoride rinse such as ACT to help strengthen your teeth!. Hope that helps!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm slightly confused on if you are asking whether you have had dental malpractice or if you are asking how you can help your teeth!? Well first don't drink soda!.!.!.!.it doesn't matter who goes shopping, you don't have to drink what is bought!. My boyfriend likes chips and pizza so I buy them for him but it doesnt mean i snack on them also!. Just floss at least once a day and brush for 2 min at a time at least twice a day and you should be good for now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Yes, novacaine is supposed to numb it all but sometimes it does not work!. My grandma said it never worked on her!. Try to drink a glass of water after each soda and drink the soda from a straw!. Soda is pretty much my favorite food or drink so I know it is not easy to just give it up!. I have been able to drink less of it and my teeth feel less sticky!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
