What is in the IV that is placed in your arm when your wisdom teeth are pulled?

You should. If you didn't (or don't) I would call the dentist/oral surgeon and ask to be prescribed some. If that doesn't work then call your regular doctor and explain the situation to see if he can prescribe yo some and find a new dentist

What to eat four days after having your wisdom teeth extracted?

Try.... Campbells Soup at hand yogurt pudding applesauce.

AnswerI like Ramen Noodles,Oodles of Noodles-stuff like that works great, just dont eat it when its too hot. A wendy's frosty sounds great, I may try that tonight, or a milkshake. Mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy too is good. The assistant told me no soda for 3 days cause of the acid in it,not good for a healing socket... so Water and Iced tea for me. I'm gonna wait a few days before I get to anything solid-even then it will be kinda soft, like tuna sandwich I guess. AnswerAfter a week, you should be able to eat pretty much everything. If food accumulates in the holes, you can rinse with water and salt.

If the surgery was very difficult and you are still experiencing discomfort after a week, you can continue eating soft foods. Answer!Answr July 2010 Jenny: all 4 wisdom teeth removed 7-15-10!

How are a DMD and a DDS different?

DMD is a Doctor of Dental Medicine. DDS is a Doctor of Dental Surgery

There is no practical difference between a DDS and a DMD. The curriculum for each is identical.

Each dental school chooses which degree to award its graduates. As long as the school is accredited, the graduate is eligible to sit for the national board as well as any regional board or state licensing board.

Any licensed dentist is allowed to perform any dental procedure provided they have not limited their practice to one of the dental specialties (oral surgery, orthodontics, endodontics, etc.).

The dentist said you have an absessed tooth does it have to be pulled or can it heal?

No. Generally speaking an absessed tooth can be saved by antibiotic therapy and root canal therapy together. There are times when a tooth cannot be saved though- when not enough tooth structure is left to support a crown or "cap", or when a root is actually fractured. Sometimes an absessed tooth is caused from a periodontal problem or in other words, a gum problem. This requires antibiotics and debridement or "deep cleaning" - or surgery.

What helps toothaches?

A DENTIST!!! All of the over the counter products or pills may not be as effective as seeing your dentist...I strongly advise you see them if you are having problems.

How can you fix multiple gaps between your teeth?

How can a dentist fill a cavity he can't see?

I don't agree with the bottom answer. To make it simple, you can view cavities in two ways. If they appear on the surface of the tooth, any dentist can see it directly with his or her own eyes.

But if the cavity is between two teeth, or under a filling, the cavity can only be seen on an x-ray. All dentists should be equipped with dental x-rays. And knowing where the cavity is, a dentist drills to get to it. He can't. You might need to go to another dentist, that way it will be done correctly. Good luck to you:)
