It's nothing for them to have to give me 10-15 Novocaine injections, sometimes more. He had to cancel his next THREE appointments, because he couldn't get them out. My roots were intertwined with each other(interlock your fingers). He finally sawed them in half, and pulled out the pieces(most of them).

I was those black and blue purple streaks, all the way down onto my chest. My head swelled up like a basketball. I tried to take Vicodin, but it makes me nauseous, and combined with the copious amounts of blood, that was still coming from the holes, wasn't a good combination. Vomiting, would have been a true nightmare. So I just dealt with it, with some Advil. I had root slivers, working their way out of my gums, for about 2 years.
Without a doubt, the worst "medical" thing, that has ever happened to me.


Seriously

Was this a general dentist or an oral surgeon?
