If I rip out my tooth with pliers...

[BudAshes]

this is a special kind of beautiful.

I always bring out the best in people

Dental school seems like a good idea. Just don't go to these recent graduates. Just lightening the mood

To think, this thread is so old that my 2009 F-150 probably only had a bit of rust on it when the thread was made.

As for pulling out a tooth, pliers are tricky, you can slip up or even accidentally crush the tooth which will be painful. Use quickset epoxy to glue a piece of wire to it, tie the other end to a cinder block and drive to a bridge, this will give enough time for the epoxy to set. Throw cinder block off bridge.

That was one other thing I neglected to give the guy credit for...rather than waste time starting his own thread...like any good RBM, he found one that's around 12 years old and necroed it...that way we get to read all sorts of old stuff that's no longer pertinent from people who are no longer here. Way to go!

And also found a way to bring politics into a thread about pulling a tooth with pliers.

If this person really went to a dentist first, man I feel bad for anyone in that office that came into contact with them. You know they flipped their shit when told of their blood pressure/risk factor would prevent a tooth being pulled.

I wonder if Cheez had a sore tooth but he couldn't find a cinder block, so...?

Imagine the teeth on the right side are (R) & the teeth on his left side are (D)...

Hammer is the answer

Well if it was up to me I would set you whole body on fire and watch and laugh as you fry democrat snowflake

Oh, bots usually don't have chili peppers inside of them.

At least in some places, Medicaid covers toof extractions now thanks to Obamacare.

I have no credit. I tried doing a dental plan credit loan and was denied.

Hit up some agency. Scout around. There's got to be some agencies who can refer you to a dentist who would do it for free or a very very reduced rate. Mercy is endemic to the human condition. Seek and you shall find... good luck!!!

And when you get on your feet, have the coin, make it a priority to see a dentist at least once a year and take his/her and his/her hygienist's advice about how to practice dental hygiene.

This is a necro thread.

This user was last here in 2009. They likely have their tooth taken care of at this point.

I realized that after making that post, then went on to read what's been posted the last day or two (not everything in between). Yes, that tooth ache 11 years ago is history. Still, my advice was good!

use a rock and an ice skate. it worked for tom hanks in that movie.

Forrest Gump had mental issues though. I don't think the OP is on the spectrum.

 

[jmagg]

Simple answer is that, if you must pull your own tooth, you best make sure there is no infection. So get penicillin first otherwise there is a good chance of a blood infection which could be fatal. Also, it's the infection that causes the pain.

Uh, that would be Castaway? Haven't seen it. Is it worth my watching?

No.

It is widely considered one of Tom Hanks' worst performances of all time.

I disagree ... not my favorite movie by any means, a bit slow moving and no "HOLLYWOOD" happy ending to be found BUT still entertaining and def worth a watch.

I was just being funny (at least attempting to).

I liked the movie, and it's one of his best performances. It's just when someone says "I haven't watched Star Wars, Indiana Jones, or The Godfather, so should I?". I think after 40 years, someone should just watch movies that are pretty universally liked (and chances are they will at least think the movie was at least OK).

Doh! That's not what you said:

You were pulling my leg? Anyway on the strength of ensuing post I put a hold on it at my library.

I also just bought a copy of Catch 22, which I've never read. It appears to be an obligatory read.

I'm only a decade late but here is the information.

For the benefit of people in the states or substandard socialized healthcare countries. Imagine your taxpayer funded research and training is kept out of your hands so you have to rely on self aid books designed for the 3rd world

Where There Is No Dentist
This is the index and first few pages of the book.
