| PAGING drjeff ... Remember the broken teeth .. well I decided to go for the complete make over dental wise.It was long overdue. Now one of my back molars will need crown lengthening. The procedure sounds pure gruesome. Is there anything I can do before or should do after to make the experience more bearable? I am not a big fan of dental pain.

| I had crown lengthening in Feb. I too was dreading it and thinking seriously creepy thoughts. I normally have no concerns about going to the dentist, but it was the little instructional video they showed me that made me edgy. Reality is it was pretty mindless. I think the whole procedure took about an hour. Pain was minimal. I had prescription for monster ibuprofen for 5 days, used them for less than 2 days. I'd describe the after effects as achy rather than pain. Your dentist should give you lots of info about keeping the area clean and not aggravating it while it heals. I also got some periodontal rinse that I began using several days later -- weird stuff they said not to use too long because it would stain my teeth. Used for a week and no stains! Whole thing healed fine and I am finally done screwing around with my million $ molar! Good luck with your dental work. Don't put it off, you only get one set of teeth!!

 | My only advice: don't watch Marathon Man this week.
