Local anesthetics should not last more than 6-12 hours. If you still feel numbess or tingling, you could have suffered some nerve damage, and you should talk to your dental surgeon just in case.
You can only use one dental insurance at a time, but sometimes one plan will pay out more for a precedure than another plan. Still, it's unlikely this will save you money considering that you're probably paying for the insurance in some way. Many people today supplement their insurance plans with discount dental plans. This is not insurance, per se, but a way of paying less for a procedure. With a dental discount plan in effect, it makes it much easier for insurance payouts to cover the cost of the procedure.
Dental Implants is a surgical procedure and hence when it is placed they numb the area where the implants have to be placed. Hence, there is not much of the pain while placing it. However, after the numbness wears off you may feel slight discomfort at the treated area but that is temporary. The implantologists will also give you certain advice to be followed while undergoing Implant treatment. If you still feel the pain or discomfort, you should consult your dentist.
Yes, you can still have a dental implant to replace a missing tooth. Dental implants are a highly effective and long-lasting solution for tooth replacement. They are designed to mimic the look, feel, and function of natural teeth, providing a permanent and reliable solution.
It is recommended to eat a soft-food diet for a week after the implant is placed. After a week, gradually start eating your normal diet. Keeping the implant and insertion area safe and protected should still be a priority.
Following the procedure, blood thinners (anticoagulants) will be given through a needle in a vein for about 24 hours. The patient should remain flat and still for awhile to allow the femoral artery to heal from the insertion of the catheter.
You should not still feel tired and drugged 25 days after having local dental anesthetic for a filing. Contact your family doctor to find out why you are so tired.
not likely
Payment for the procedures should be based on the date of the procedure. Since you are covered on that date, the procedures should be paid if they are covered under the terms of the policy. Also, dental insurance can be continued under the provisions of COBRA if you work for an employer with 20 or more employees. Here is a link to the Department of Labor FAQs about COBRA: http://www.dol.gov/ebsa/faqs/faq_consumer_cobra.html. Some states have COBRA like laws that apply to smaller employers.
Dental Implants are not an inexpensive procedure. Some countries offer them at a less expensive rate but can still be upwards of $700. Dental Implants are expensive but can give you the most realistic and long lasting replacement for missing teeth.
Strongly consider changing your plans. There really isn't anywhere on Earth that's still literally "a month from civilization." A crown falling off can be exceedingly painful. There are temporary dental first-aid kits that could get you through the 8 hours part, but they probably won't tide you through the month part.
You should seek medical attention if you still have a black eye five weeks after having a permanent eyeliner procedure.
