‘The Crown’ Season 4 Review: It’s to Di For

Ann Donahue, IndieWire Nov 9, 2020

*Spoilers*

In a case of art imitating life, the addition of Princess Diana to the Netflix series revitalizes the Royal Family.

[Editor’s Note: The following review contains spoilers for Season 4 of “The Crown” and British history between 1979-1990.]

Like the good public school types that they are, the British Royal Family isn’t above a bit of hazing to those who seek to enter its inner circle.

It’s known as “The Balmoral Test” and involves diligent bouts of outdoorsy activity at the Queen’s castle in Scotland. (Traipsing over steep hills in the mud! Stalking stags to kill! Wearing tartans unironically!)

Season 4 of “The Crown” debuts November 15 on Netflix, and early on you learn Margaret Thatcher wore high heels, brought a briefcase and a sneer to Balmoral, and unequivocally, catastrophically failed the test. Diana Spencer wore boots, bangs, and a sweet smile, and passed with flying colors.

In the end, though, they both lose the bigger game of conquering The Firm.

After a subpar Season 3, it turns out that what this ongoing narrative of Queen Elizabeth really needed was an enemy — or two. In a season with the most pop culture audience pressure riding on it — because of the Princess Diana factor, there is no doubt that people who have never watched a single second of “The Crown” before now will tune in — Peter Morgan’s show delivers its best yet.

With the addition of Thatcher, played to gritty, galling Iron Lady perfection by Gillian Anderson, and Diana, a near-impossible role that Emma Corrin makes look effortless without descending into hagiography, “The Crown” gives a riveting look at a decade that codified callous excess in the characters’ public and private lives.

Instead of the world being seen through others’ eyes and leaving Olivia Colman on the margins to react — as she was left to do in Season 3 — Colman is now allowed to own the monarch’s authority in her performance. And with foils like Anderson and Corrin, all three turn in very brittle and beautiful performances.

The great fear was that the Prime Minister vs. Sovereign face-offs between Anderson and Colman could be reduced to tropes: either “It’s Girl Power time, Tory style!” or “Oooh catfight!” Thankfully, this is avoided entirely by letting both actors show their chops in the most understated and devastating ways at their command.

Morgan was the playwright for 2013’s “The Audience,” which envisioned the weekly meetings between the Queen and her long history of Prime Ministers, and it won Tonys for Helen Mirren (playing guess who) and Richard McCabe as Prime Minister Harold Wilson. Colman has extensive stage experience, most recently in “Mosquitoes” at the Royal National Theatre in London in 2017. Anderson has three Laurence Olivier Award nominations, including one for 2019’s production of “All About Eve.”

As a result, the scenes between these two are a study in the subtleties of power dynamics and differences in upbringing that are framed to read as beautifully on a TV screen as it would on the West End. What you see is Anderson as Thatcher curtsying particularly deeply at a certain moment, or Colman as the Queen making a calculated move to end the audience. What you understand is that Thatcher doesn’t get why someone with an inherited title should hold more power than her, and the Queen’s firm resolve to keep Thatcher in her place.

Yes, yes, yes, contemplating the wounds caused by the vicissitudes of the British class system is all well and good, let’s please get to the part about Prince Charles and Lady Di, rich people in doomed love. Or “Whatever love means?” as Charles agonizingly asked at his engagement press event as Diana wilted beside him. This famously public cringe-moment is recreated in “The Crown,” and it’s one of the reasons why this long has been the timeframe where the show stood the most risk of devolving into shadow puppetry.

The Charles and Di moments have been covered a million times in various news clips and documentaries; you can see the entirety of the terrible engagement interview at a moment’s notice via YouTube. Great credit is due to Josh O’Connor as Charles, Corrin as Diana, and Emerald Fennell as Camilla Parker Bowles, as they all find layered emotional textures to enrich the footage that’s been part of the pop culture vernacular for decades.

Corrin, in particular, does a hell of a job. This is not a Diana with a sad-princess-imprisoned-in-a-tower sheen — several episodes open with content warnings due to the graphic depiction of her disordered eating. The show doesn’t play coy: Diana was a particularly child-like very young woman who checked all the boxes for “virginal beautiful young princess” — and beyond that perfect-on-paper resume there wasn’t a second thought given to her mental health. She is shown without the emotional capacity or maturity to understand that this isn’t a love story; it’s a job to fill the global complexities of a role in a chilly, treacherous family.

Corrin pulls no punches; her Diana is winsome and frustrating, sweet and calculating. She is savvy and silly and petulant. She is world famous but starved for attention. Corrin spins around to the point of collapse as she dances, all desperate, keening, frenetic energy and no joy. It’s a complex portrayal of a complex person, one that is fully aware of the mythology that surrounds the character but isn’t weighed down by it.

Diana was an Instagram royal decades before there was such a thing, and it’s through gestures like famously hugging a child with HIV in the hospital that the princess tried to kill the Crown with her kindness. It’s something a perpetually battle-ready Thatcher would never conceive of doing — but it’s also something The Queen would never consider. But why shouldn’t they? What do we expect of our hallowed institutions, and why? If we can envision better, more humane treatment, why don’t we require it?

These are weighty questions, and they are asked in a show relentless in its ability to propagate its characters’ power through setting and spectacle. It goes without saying that the production design, hair and makeup, and costumes remain outstanding on “The Crown” — there is a reason the show is undefeated during its three-season run at the Emmys in the category of Outstanding Period Costumes.

The streak should continue this year if for nothing else than the combination of creating a wedding dress inspired by Princess Diana’s voluminous meringue and the true-to-life pink plaid ensemble the lonely princess wears to roller skate around Buckingham Palace. (Corrin also at one point wears a sweater with llamas embroidered on it — also based on an outfit Diana wore. The ‘80s were a lot.)

Beyond reveling in the tawdry candy-colored tale of Charles and Di, Morgan’s writing on the show routinely explores notions of classicism, privilege, sexism, and racism. But this time around, the undercurrents surface in a way that is timely, incisive, and, ultimately, more pointed and hopeful: If England can survive 11 years of Margaret Thatcher as Prime Minister, the United States will survive four of President Donald J. Trump and the craven GOP leadership.

This isn’t a particularly sunny take. The cruel deprivation, degradation, and devastation wrought by the Thatcher years is the basis of several episodes over the course of the season. A war was started out of preposterous personal motivation (Shout-out to former President George W. Bush! Some of us haven’t forgotten that you’re a war criminal!); institutional racism was bolstered and emboldened for oligarchical profit; public resources were diverted from the marginalized in the righteously cold-blooded notion that there is no implicit bias in society, it’s just that some are lazy and choose to suffer.

All of this is familiar. Very painfully, infuriatingly familiar. But as “The Crown” in this season shows, with a steel spine and ice in its veins, the Monarchy was built to withstand whatever onslaught comes its way.

So are we.

Grade: A

“The Crown” Season 4 will be available Friday, November 15 on Netflix.

Dr. Peter McCullough: The State of COVID Treatment

Story at-a-glance Cardiologist, internist and epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough discusses why a key aspect of care — early treatment — has been missing from the pandemic With no hope of early treatment, McCullough believes that most people became conditioned to wait for an injection COVID-19 injections are waning in effectiveness and linked to an unacceptable number of serious injuries and deaths McCullough is among a growing number of experts who believe COVID-19 injections are making the pandemic worse; indiscriminate vaccination is driving mutations, as the virus is mutating wildly to evade the injections At 53:40 in the video, you can view McCullough’s early treatment regimen, which initially includes a nutraceutical bundle, progressing to monoclonal antibody therapy, anti-infectives like HCQ or ivermectin, antibiotics, steroids and blood thinners

The video above,1 featuring cardiologist, internist and epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, is packed with sound logic, data and action steps that have the potential to turn the pandemic around — if only more people would listen.Recorded at the Andrews University Village Church in Berrien Springs, Michigan, August 20, 2021, this presentation deserves to be heard, and I urge you to listen to it in its entirety. It will make you question why a key aspect of care — early treatment — has been missing from the pandemic.McCullough, editor of two medical journals who has published 650 peer-reviewed papers, said this has been the first time in his career when he saw medical providers not offering early treatment for a disease.Early COVID Treatment Saves Lives The standard of care for COVID-19 has been to withhold treatment until a person is sick enough to be hospitalized. It typically takes two to three weeks for someone with COVID-19 to get sick enough to be hospitalized, and during that time early treatment can be lifesaving.The rationale was that there have been no large, randomized trials conducted to know which treatments are safe and effective, but as McCullough said, "We can't wait for large randomized trials … Something got in the minds of doctors and nurses and everyone to not treat COVID-19. I couldn't stand it." He and colleagues worked feverishly to figure out a treatment — why didn't national health organizations do so also?"Our government and other governments, and the entire world, has not lifted a finger to reduce the risk of hospitalization and death anywhere," McCullough said, pointing out the irony: "If there was a kid with asthma, would we let the kid wheeze and choke for two weeks before the kid has to go to the hospital? No, we give the child medications. We don't have randomized trials for every single thing that we do."2 McCullough and colleagues realized that there are three major phases to COVID-19. It starts with virus replication, which then triggers inflammation, or a cytokine storm. This, in turn, leads to blood clotting. If enough micro blood clots form in the lungs, a person can't get enough oxygen and dies. It's a complex process, and no single drug is going to work to treat it, which is why McCullough uses a combination of drugs, as is done to treat HIV, staph and other infections.Only about 6% of doctors' decisions in cardiology are based on randomized trials. "Medicine is an art and a science, it takes judgment. What was happening is, I think out of global fear, no judgement was happening," McCullough said,3 referring to doctors' refusal to treat COVID-19 patients early on in the disease process.Doctors Threatened for Treating COVID-19 Around the world, the unthinkable is happening: Doctors are being threatened with loss of their license or even prison for trying to help their patients. French doctor Didier Raoult suggested, early on, putting up a tent to try to treat covid-19 patients. He was put on house arrest. He has promoted the use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), which initially was available over the counter — until France made it prescription only.4In Australia, if a doctor attempts to treat a COVID-19 patient with HCQ, they could be put in prison. "Since when does a doctor get put in prison to try to help a patient with a simple generic drug?" McCullough said. In South Africa, he added, a doctor was put in prison for prescribing ivermectin.In August 2020, McCullough's landmark paper "Pathophysiological Basis and Rationale for Early Outpatient Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 Infection" was published online in the American Journal of Medicine.5The follow-up paper is titled "Multifaceted Highly Targeted Sequential Multidrug Treatment of Early Ambulatory High-Risk SARS-CoV-2 Infection (COVID-19)" and was published in Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine in December 2020.6 It became the basis for the home treatment guide.While some physician organizations have stepped up and are treating COVID-19 patients, "The ivory tower today still is not treating

patients. The party line in my health system is, do not treat a COVID-19 patient as an outpatient. Wait for them to get sick enough to be admitted. Because my health system … follows the National Institutes of Health or the Centers for Disease Control, period." Conditioned to Wait for an Injection With no hope of early treatment, McCullough believes that most people became conditioned to wait for an injection. "We became conditioned, after about May or so, to wear a mask, wait in isolation and be saved by the vaccine. And wait for the vaccine. And all we could hear about is the vaccine."The injections were developed, but they're different than any prior vaccines and have been losing effectiveness while causing an unacceptable number of serious injuries and deaths. For comparison, in 1976, a fast-tracked injection program against swine flu was halted after an estimated 25 to 32 deaths.7According to McCullough in the video, if a new drug comes on the market and five deaths occur, the standard is to issue a black box warning stating the medication may cause death. With 50 deaths, the product is pulled from the market, he says. Now consider this: The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) database showed that — for all vaccines combined before 2020 — there were about 158 total deaths reported per year.By January 22, 2021, there were already 182 deaths reported for COVID-19 injections, with just 27.1 million people vaccinated. This was more than enough to reach the mortality signal of concern to stop the program, McCullough said."We've already crossed the line of concern January 22. And if there was a data safety monitoring board — I know, because I do this work — we would have had an emergency meeting and said, wait a minute, people are dying after the vaccine. We've got to figure out why."8It's standard to have an external critical event committee, an external data safety monitoring board and a human ethics committee for large clinical trials — such as the mass COVID-19 injection program, but these were not put into place."This is something we've never seen in human medicine — a new product introduced and just going full-steam ahead with no check on why people are dying after the vaccine," McCullough said. On two occasions, the CDC and FDA — in March and in June — reviewed the data and said none of the deaths are related to the vaccines. "I think this is malfeasance," he stated.Fast-forward to July 30, 2021, and VAERS data showed 12,366 Americans have died after a COVID0-19 injection.9 In an analysis of COVID-19 vaccine death reports from VAERS, researchers found that 86% of the time, nothing else could have caused the death, and it appears the vaccine was the cause.10The Spike Protein Is Dangerous Your body recognizes the spike protein in COVID-19 jabs as foreign, so it begins to manufacture antibodies to protect you against COVID-19, or so the theory goes. But there's a problem. The spike protein itself is dangerous and known to circulate in your body at least for weeks and more likely months11 — perhaps much longer — after the COVID jab.In your cells, the spike protein damages blood vessels and can lead to the development of blood clots.12 It can go into your brain, adrenal glands, ovaries, heart, skeletal muscles and nerves, causing inflammation, scarring and damage in organs over time. McCullough also believes that the spike protein is present in donated blood, and they've notified the Red Cross and the American Association of Blood Banking.Messenger RNA (mRNA) platforms have been under study for years, in most cases being designed to replace a defective gene, which could potentially be used for cancer or heart failure treatment, for example.In November 2020, however, Pfizer, in a joint venture with Germany-based BioNTech, announced that their mRNA-based injection was "more than 90% effective" in a Phase 3 trial.13 This does not mean that 90% of people who get injected will be protected from COVID-19, as it's based on relative risk reduction (RRR).The absolute

risk reduction (ARR) for the jab is less than 1%. "Although the RRR considers only participants who could benefit from the jab, the absolute risk reduction (ARR), which is the difference between attack rates with and without a jab, considers the whole population. ARRs tend to be ignored because they give a much less impressive effect size than RRRs," researchers wrote in The Lancet Microbe in April 2021.14McCullough believes the mass injection campaign is an incredible violation of human ethics, in part because no one should be pressured, coerced or threatened into using an investigational product.No attempts have been made to present or mitigate risks to the public, such as giving it only to people who really need it — not to low risk groups like children and young people and those who are naturally immune to COVID-19 due to prior infection. "I think this is the most disturbing thing," he said.The Injections Don't Stop COVID-19, Can Be Deadly The CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) posted online July 30, 2021, details an outbreak of COVID-19 that occurred in Barnstable County, Massachusetts — 74% of the cases occurred in fully vaccinated people.15Indiscriminate vaccination is driving mutations, as the virus is mutating wildly to evade the injections. Their effectiveness, too, is rapidly waning. A study published in medRxiv, using data from the Mayo Clinic Health System, revealed that during periods of Alpha and Delta variant prevalence, Moderna's injection was 76% effective while Pfizer's effectiveness was only 42%.16A little-known fact is that Moderna's jab has three times the dose of Pfizer's, but, curiously, health officials aren't even discussing this or giving the public updates on which of the three injections work "best." The narrative is simple and straightforward — get an injection, any injection.Yet, as McCullough noted, the virus has mutated, and the vaccines aren't working the way health officials had hoped: "The vaccines don't stop COVID-19, at least not completely, and they're not a shield against mortality."17Similar to VAERS, the U.K. maintains a "Yellow Card" reporting site to report adverse effects to vaccines and medications.18Tess Lawrie, whose company The Evidence-Based Medicine Consultancy has worked with the World Health Organization, analyzed U.K. Yellow Card data and concluded that there's more than enough evidence to pull the injections from the market because they're not safe for human use. The report stated:19"It is now apparent that these products in the blood stream are toxic to humans. An immediate halt to the vaccination programme is required whilst a full and independent safety analysis is undertaken to investigate the full extent of the harms, which the UK Yellow Card data suggest include thromboembolism, multisystem inflammatory disease, immune suppression, autoimmunity and anaphylaxis, as well as Antibody Dependent Enhancement (ADE)."Early Treatment Is Crucial McCullough is trying to get the word out about the importance of early treatment of COVID-19. Early ambulatory therapy with a sequenced-multidrug regimen is supported by available sources of evidence and has a positive benefit-to-risk profile to reduce the risk of hospitalization and death.At 53:40 in the video, you can view McCullough's early treatment regimen, which initially includes a nutraceutical bundle. While you're recovering at home, open your windows and get plenty of fresh air and ventilation in your home.If symptoms persist or worsen, he recommends calling your doctor and demanding monoclonal antibody therapy. The treatment progresses to include anti-infectives like HCQ or ivermectin, antibiotics, steroids and blood thinners.If your doctor refuses to treat COVID-19 in the early stages, find a new one and/or visit a telemedicine clinic that will help, as "the prehospital phase is the time of therapeutic opportunity."📷McCullough is among a growing number of experts who believe COVID-19 injections are making the pandemic worse. They "have an unfavorable

safety profile and are not clinically effective, thus they cannot be generally supported in clinical practice at this time."Logically, this is clear, but McCullough believes we're dealing with a mass psychosis that is preventing people from seeing the light. "The whole world is in a trance," he said, adding:20"Things are getting disturbingly out of control and it's in the context of the virus. It is clear … we are in a very special time in the history of mankind. Whatever is going on, it is the entire world … every human being in the world. It appears to have a program.The program … is happening to promote as much fear, isolation, suffering, hospitalization and death in order to get a needle in every arm, at all costs. That is what's going on, and no one in this room can disagree."

Benefits and risks of circumcision

Chinese Shang Ring adult male circumcision (SC) is a safe and effective procedure which is easy to learn and to perform. By a specially designed small device, male circumcision (MC) can be performed in 5 min. Compared with conventional adult MC (CC), SC has shorter operation time, less blood loss, less pain score, higher appearance satisfaction rate, and lower complication rate. SC was first developed in China. As recent studies have demonstrated that MC reduced the risk of acquiring human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection via vaginal intercourse in African countries, SC was introduced into Africa to fight HIV. Other sexually transmitted diseases such as human papillomavirus infection may also be prevented by SC. In conclusion, Chinese Shang Ring, a small device, provides an easy, quick, safe, and effective method to perform adult MC.

Circumcision is an operation to remove a male’s foreskin. It is one of the oldest and most common surgical procedures. A male may undergo this procedure for religious, social, medical, or cultural reasons.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) encourage male circumcision on the basis that it appears to reduce the risk of HIV infection during vaginal sex. However, not all health authorities agree, and the recommendations remain somewhat controversial.

Adult circumcision device is fairly commonly used in the United States. In fact, according to the CDC, 58.3%Trusted Source of U.S. newborns underwent circumcision in 2010.

It is less common in other Western countries, however. In the United Kingdom, for example, only around 8.5% of males are circumcised.

This article will discuss what to expect during the procedure itself, as well as some possible benefits and risks.

What is circumcision?

Circumcision involves the removal of the foreskin of the penis. The foreskin is the shroud of skin that, when gently pulled back, uncovers the head of the penis.

The surgery is relatively simple. A healthcare professional will free the foreskin from the head of the penis and, in newborns, clip it off in a procedure that only takes a few minutes. In adults, they will remove the foreskin with a scalpel, and it takes around 30 minutes.

They will then either cauterize or stitch the wound with dissolvable sutures.

History

The first circumcisions may have taken place around 15,000 years ago. The procedure then slowly spread across a variety of cultures, especially in the Middle East.

It may have become popular in the ancient world as a public health measure and a way of preventing balanitis. Balanitis leads to swelling and pain in the head of the penis.

This condition might have been more common in ancient societies due to sand building up under the foreskin.

Circumcision became popular in the Western world in the late 19th century, when people began performing the operation in an attempt to prevent masturbation. Many believed that masturbation was associated with conditions such as epilepsy, paralysis, tuberculosis, and insanity.

However, there was little compelling evidence to support these claims. As the newly formed national healthcare systems started facing rising costs, they stopped recommending the procedure.

In the U.S., however, it has remained a relatively common practice, and some major health authorities do still encourage it.

Why circumcise newborns?

A number of factors are associated with neonatal circumcision.

The most common are:

religion

hygiene

health considerations

Some studies have suggested that circumcision reducesTrusted Source the risk of urinary tract infection, but more recent findings have contradicted this, with some suggesting that it might actually increase the risk.

Evidence has indicated a lower risk of some sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including syphilis. Circumcised males, using male circumcision device, also appear to be less likely to contract herpes or HIV.

In very rare cases, balanitis or phimosis can develop in an uncircumcised male. With these conditions, the foreskin cannot retract. This requires surgical treatment.

Cancer of the penis is extremely rare, but it appears to be slightly more commonTrusted Source in males with a high body mass index (BMI), males with a history of smoking, males who are uncircumcised, and those with a combination of these factors.

Adult circumcision

Circumcision is less common in adults than in children. It takes longer and is likely to involve more tissue trauma. It may also cause more psychological trauma than it does in newborns.

However, it may reduce the risk of certain conditions, including phimosis, paraphimosis, and balanitis.

Phimosis is the inability to pull back the foreskin, leading to pain and urinary problems. It can occur if a male is born with a tight foreskin, or due to scarring, infection, or inflammation. Treatment options include topical corticosteroids or circumcision.

Paraphimosis occurs when the foreskin becomes stuck behind the head of the penis and restricts blood flow to the end of the penis. It can result from a medical intervention, such as the use of a catheter. Paraphimosis is a medical emergency. Without treatment, gangrene can result. Treatment aims to reduce the swelling, but most doctors recommend circumcision after recovery, in order to prevent the condition reoccurring.

Balanitis occurs when the head of the penis becomes inflamed or swollen. This may be due to an STI, thrush, skin irritation, or another skin condition. It is uncommon in circumcised males. Circumcision can prevent balanitis reoccurring.

Circumcision and HIV

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there is “compelling evidence” to suggest that adult circumcision device reduces the risk of contracting HIV during vaginal sex by 60%Trusted Source .

However, they point out that circumcision will offer only partial protection, and they urge people to use barrier methods such as condoms as well.

The higher chance of infection may be because the foreskin becomes more prone to splits and ruptures during intercourse, allowing pathogens to enter the bloodstream.

Another possibility is that the space between the penis and the foreskin might provide an environment in which a virus can survive for a period of time, raising the risk of infection for the individual and their next partner.

Some argue that the U.S. has a relatively high rate of HIV despite high circumcision rates. In addition, the results of studies in Africa and Asia associating circumcision with HIV prevention, mainly in heterosexual populations, may not translate to the U.S.

Risks

Circumcision is a relatively safe procedure, and severe complications are rare.

However, the following risks are possible:

The surgeon cuts the foreskin too short or leaves it too long.

The wound does not heal properly.

Blood loss and hemorrhage occur.

Meatal stenosis occurs. This condition causes the urinary stream to be deflected upward, making it difficult to aim.

Damage affects the urethra, which is the tube that carries urine through the penis. This can make urination difficult.

In very rare cases, there may be accidental amputation of the head of the penis.

Blood infection or poisoning, known as septicemia, may develop.

The foreskin left behind might reattach to the penis and require further minor surgery.

There may be a decrease in the sensation of the penis, especially during intercourse.

Complications are more likely Trusted Source when:

an older male undergoes the procedure

the procedure takes place in unsterile conditions

inexperienced or untrained providers carry out the procedure

the procedure takes place in a traditional manner, as a rite of passage

If a qualified medical professional carries out the procedure in a sterile environment, the risks are minimal.

Natural Receding Gums Toothpaste

Periodontal gum disease is characterized by the occurrence of periodontal pockets, which protects bacteria. These bacteria produce acid and serve as pathways for inflammation. When the inflammation occurs, the gums recede from the tooth's surface, exposing the underlying root tissues.

Toothpaste Receding Gums

The receding gums is one of those very first symptoms of gum disease. Treatment involves reducing the bacteria which cause the inflammation, so restoring the bronchial spit which helps in avoiding the formation of tartar. There are various treatments available, including scaling and root planing, which involves removing plaque from the face of the teeth and gums. There's also a number of preventive measures, including maintaining good oral hygiene methods, including regular brushing, flossing, and dental appointments. Proper dental care can cut the risks of gum disease and the growth of tartar.

In periodontitis, the gums become swollen due to bacterial infection and inflammation caused by plaque and tartar buildup. A root canal is the suggested treatment for severe periodontitis. This process eliminates bacteria and other toxins which may be contributing factors to gum recession. For this latter group, surgical intervention may be needed.

These symptoms can range from mild to severe. Some people experience just a couple of symptoms, but others experience upto five or even longer. The best method to deal with periodontitis is via a qualified cleaning and repair, that ought to relieve the pain and inflammation.

Other causes of receding gums incorporate intrinsic oral pathology, inadequate brushing habits, insufficient saliva production, poor diet, poor diet, smoking, poor oral hygiene, and diseases such as HIV and diabetes. Therefore, it's important to identify them and address them appropriately.

Poor oral hygiene techniques comprise not brushing teeth after meals, flossing daily, and perhaps not using quality toothpastes and brushing tools. Poorly applied toothpastes weaken tooth roots and make spaces between your teeth, causing periodontal disease to happen. Flossing is just a essential step to remove plaque and food residue, but it has to be done each day and thoroughly to protect against receding gums and tooth loss. Likewise, utilizing non-toxic toothpastes weaken the tooth roots and make spaces between your teeth, allowing plaque and tartar to produce and cause periodontal disease.

Gum disease and recede gums can also be attributed to insufficient saliva production. While this occurs, it allows for greater freedom within your mouth and stronger attachments between one's teeth and the gum tissue. As a result, teeth can strengthen and bond better with one another.

Toothpaste For Receding Gums

It must be noted there isn't any single explanation for the occurrence of receding gums or periodontal disease, which can frequently be connected to more than 1 factor. However, these common causes of oral health problems can be efficiently battled through a thorough oral health system. Proper brushing two times a day and flossing are vital for reducing accumulation and guarantee optimal oral hygiene. Additionally, routine visits to your dentist may help identify some existing problems and take positive steps towards improving the situation.

In addition to proper brushing and flossing, you may also take preventative measures to avoid periodontal disease. Regular deep cleaning of one's teeth will remove excess food deposits, and it will be also a contributing element in periodontal disease. If you discover any symptoms of gum disease such as bleeding gums or painful areas round your mouth, visit your dentist as soon as possible.

Periodontal disease is usually caused by the buildup of plaque and tartar on the teeth. Although plaque and tartar may be removed by routine brushing and flossing, sometimes additional treatment is needed. If you see a deep cleaning of one's teeth by your dentist, it may indicate the beginning of the practice of removing tartar and bacteria buildup. A root cause analysis will help identify which treatments are most effective and what types of medications should be avoided.

The earlier periodontal disease is discovered and treated, the more unlikely it is that it will have a damaging influence on your dental health and fitness. Therefore, regardless how much money you can invest in routine professional cleanings, it is still very important to visit your dentist regularly. Remember to brush and floss dailyand have your dentist what products and techniques are best for removing plaque and bacteria buildup. Keeping a excellent oral health routine won't only save money at the future, however it is going to also increase your selfesteem and help you feel great about your overall oral health.

The association between gum disease and receding gums can be a complex one. Many people don't understand that if their gums start to look worn down or loose, it could possibly be an indicator that the individual has a serious oral health problem. Gum disease may change anyone from kids to adults. It is important to get regular dental appointments for routine cleanings and check ups.

Best Toothpaste To Heal Receding Gums

One of these signs of an impending receding gums is if your teeth begin to take away from the gum line. When teeth start to pull away from the gum line, it interrupts the encouraging bone for those teeth. The bone afterward can very quickly divide the gum and travel to the bone surrounding the teeth. This could lead to a severe tooth loss.

Whenever there is no protection from one's teeth or mouth for the supporting bones, plaque can start to create up. Plaque is composed of food particles, dead cells, and other materials that cannot be properly removed by brushing. The build up of plaque can lead to tartar, and it is a hardened chemical that sticks to the teeth. Tartar can turn out to be worse when it builds up on the gum line.

In order to reduce the amount of pain and suffering in a period of a recession, many people are turning to dental plans. Dental plans offer you a means to find great dental care at the form of a regular monthly premium. The monthly premiums will probably be broken up into smaller monthly obligations for ease of paying. Some companies offer dental benefits within employee compensation and most people are able to obtain an affordable plan which meets their needs.

Most people who have had a tooth recession are worried with the process to getting a brand new pair of teeth. Throughout a tooth recession of the gums will soon recede and the teeth become sensitive to every touch. There are several things which can cause the gums to recede. Pot smoking, coffee and other caffeinated drinks can irritate the teeth and raise the chances of cavities. The thicker and thinner tissue in the teeth may be damaged by chewing hard foods like candies and chocolate.

The Best Toothpaste For Gum Disease

If brushing your teeth twice per day, flossing should always be the first thing. Flossing removes surface plaque that collects between the teeth. This gives bacteria a place to breed. A regular flossing and brushing routine will guarantee that bacteria usually do not need a opportunity to accumulate. When brushing, make sure you scratch the plaque away from the gums.

Regularly brushing your teeth may also help reduce gum disease. If tartar or plaque has accumulated, scratching it away regularly with a soft bristled toothbrush will help take it off and keep it from gathering . If your gums start to bleed after brushing, see your dentist because this may be a sign of gum disease or even a busted tooth. If you notice bleeding after a dental checkup, then visit your dentist immediately.

Dentists use a particular tool to scratch tartar from the teeth called tetracycline. This really is an antibiotic that's taken by mouth to be able to kill bacteria. Once the bacteria was murdered, a root extractor can be employed to pull on the extra plaque from between your teeth and gums. Your dentist may perform any number of treatments to prevent or treat periodontal disease.

If your dentist has found that you're suffering from periodontal disease, there are a lot of steps you can take at home in order to prevent it from worsening. The absolute most significant thing you can do for yourself is to practice good oral hygiene including routine tooth brushing and flossing. Good oral hygiene won't only prevent disease but may also keep your smile looking amazing.

Your dentist can indicate gum grafting or dental implants if your state has become serious . Gum grafts or dental implants are synthetic replacements for the gum tissue. By far the most popular replacement option would be gum tissue grafting. If your condition has reached this time, your dentist may imply that you opt for a tissue graft rather than the usual dental implant as a gum graft could be implanted directly on your gum tissue.

Best Toothpaste For Gum Disease

In case the gum tissue graft does not heal properly, your dentist will suggest that you take away from the teeth. Pulling your teeth can seem to be a chilling idea once you think about it, but it is actually very common when people attempt to replace lost teeth. The gum tissue may return in to place, however it is not near to the root of the tooth and also this may result in the teeth receding again. Pulling your teeth may prevent this from happening as your dentist may make modest incisions along the gum line so the gum tissue has been pulled away from one's teeth. Your teeth will link and you may never have to worry about gum tissue .

Whether you’re dealing with wisdom teeth, a cracked tooth you didn’t plan for, or a painful infection, the words “tooth extraction” can cause concern. Luckily, a tooth extraction doesn’t have to be a source of dread.

I want to help you understand the procedure, aftercare, and options involved. It’s important to be well-educated about tooth removals. Tooth extractions can be considered oral surgery, and you’d never walk into surgery unprepared!

While most patients don’t want a tooth removed, feeling confident and knowledgeable will improve your experience.

There are multiple kinds of extractions based on your situation. I’ll also walk you through your pain management options and give clear instructions for aftercare.

Opt for informed instead of overwhelmed. Saying goodbye to your tooth will be easier with this comprehensive guide.

What is a tooth extraction?

Let’s boil down this mysterious procedure. Simply put, in a tooth extraction, a tooth is pulled out of the socket in the bone where it rests.

There are two basic types of tooth extractions: a simple tooth extraction and a surgical tooth extraction. One or both can also factor into your wisdom tooth removal. Both extractions remove a tooth from the mouth, but there are some key differences to note.

In some cases, if you can see the tooth in the mouth, you may need only a simple extraction. If the tooth isn’t visible, the extraction will likely be surgical. However, hidden root structure can make even a visible tooth eligible for surgical extraction. If you have impacted wisdom teeth, those are judged at varying levels of impaction, which is why wisdom tooth surgery can involve a combination of simple and surgical extractions.

A simple extraction will loosen your tooth using an “elevator,” then pull it out once it’s properly dislodged from the surrounding bone. This surgery is, as its name implies, a more routine procedure and only requires a local anesthetic.

Most general dentists offer simple tooth extractions. The healing time, pain management, and swelling will likely be more mild with a simple extraction. If this is your diagnosis, you can relax.

A surgical extraction deals with a tooth that hasn’t erupted yet or one that may have broken off near the gumline. In this case, the tooth can’t be grasped and loosened the same way. A small cut will be made into your gum line so that your dentist can access, loosen, and remove the tooth. (1)

An oral surgeon could be needed for surgical extractions in some cases. Unfortunately, due to the more complex nature of this procedure, your downtime, swelling, and recovery may be a bit more extensive. Not to worry, though, great aftercare and proper rest help take the bite out of surgical extractions.

7 Common Reasons for Tooth Extraction

When you’re dealing with problems like cavities, gum disease, and more, how does your dentist make the choice to extract a tooth? In some cases, there are decisions that you must make together based on your individual situation, like if it’s better to get an extraction or a root canal.

Here are some of the major reasons your dentist may suggest you have a tooth pulled:

Overcrowding. The problem is simple: too many teeth, not enough space. Removing a tooth can free up space for better alignment. This may be necessary for orthodontic treatments, such as braces that shift teeth around inside the mouth.

Risky infections. In some cases, bad bacteria has spread into the tooth roots past what root canal therapy can treat.

Immune system considerations. Patients with weakened immune systems can have a harder time fighting tooth decay and infection. This can include those with transplants, HIV positive individuals, chemotherapy and radiation patients, and more. In such cases, opting for an extraction over a root canal is standard. (2)

Periodontal disease. In its more advanced stages, gum disease can loosen teeth within the mouth. These loose and weakened teeth will only continue to cause issues if not removed. (3)

Wisdom teeth. Third molars can grow in incorrectly, cause issues with crowding, develop cavities, and cause pain. These teeth also pose risk of infection, inflammation, or gum irritation. Typically this extraction is needed in the teens or early 20s. Here’s my ultimate guide to wisdom teeth. Resources like this can help you make an informed decision about what to do with these third molars.

A broken or damaged tooth. Depending on the level of damage, the dentist may recommend pulling the tooth instead of repairing it.

Overlap. A patient’s permanent teeth may start to come in before their “baby teeth” have fallen out. Since two rows of teeth is only ideal if you’re a shark, the dentist may remove the smaller teeth and make room for the permanent ones.

Getting a Tooth Pulled: What to Expect

Just like any other procedure, knowing what to expect when you need a tooth extraction is key. This section will empower you to prepare for, relax during, and recover from your dental extraction.

Before the Procedure

Inform your dentist of medical history, any immune system complications, medications and supplements. Conditions that need further consideration include hypertension, osteoporosis, bisphosphonate use, bleeding issues, and anticoagulant use. (4, 5, 6)

Your dentist will take an x-ray to design the best treatment for your teeth. This can show your dentist many elements. S/he will be looking at how your wisdom teeth are growing in, for instance, and if they are impacted.

S/he’ll also check for possible infections or cysts, and observe your teeth’s relationship to your inferior alveolar nerve. This nerve essentially gives feeling to the entire bottom half of the mouth: jaw bone, lower lip, teeth, and chin. An x-ray ensures that your dentist has a fully informed picture of what’s happening in your mouth before they start any work.

Based on your medical history and x-ray, your dentist may prescribe a round of antibiotics before the surgery. A variety of reasons may prompt this. Factors include your immune system’s strength, the length of the surgery, infections or issues found in the x-ray, and your medical history. (7)

You can also discuss pain management options during your procedure during the planning stage with your dentist. Anesthesia options may be available and are often preferable for surgical extractions. You’ll take into consideration how many teeth are being pulled and what type of tooth extraction is being performed.

If you choose IV sedation, be sure to wear a short-sleeved shirt so your veins are accessible.

During the week before the procedure, be sure to let your dentist know if you have had a cold or nausea and vomiting. These can alter the anesthesia scheduled or even necessitate rescheduling.

The day of the surgery, make sure you have a ride scheduled if you’ll be undergoing any kind of sedation, and avoid smoking. If you’ll be sedated, be sure that your ride is also ready to help with your post-care instructions until you’ve recovered from the effects of the anesthesia. It’s not easy to remember details right after a tooth extraction.

During the Procedure

If you are receiving a simple extraction, you will likely only need local anesthesia injected directly into the mouth. This type of numbing is common for fillings and other routine dental work.

For a surgical extraction or wisdom tooth removal, you may need general anesthesia in addition to local anesthesia. To remove an impacted or broken tooth, your dentist will be cutting into gum tissue and potentially even the bone around the tooth.

In both instances, you should feel pressure, but not pain or pinching. If you experience any discomfort beyond the pressure your dentist describes, let them know right away.

Beyond anesthesia, your dentist may also use steroids in an IV to decrease post-procedure swelling.

Once the tooth is out and the extraction site is cleared, your dentist will assess if you need sutures (small stitches that help the gum heal). After this, the extraction procedure is finished.

After the Procedure (Recovery)

What level of pain should I expect after a tooth extraction?

As you can imagine, a surgical extraction may be a bit trickier to recover from than a simple one. It can also involve more complications. (8) However, both are manageable with proper medication and rest! Many simpler cases are manageable with simple NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) such as Advil, Motrin, and more.

Your dentist can give you guidance for managing your pain this way, but typically you will follow a schedule of taking these aids three to four times daily.

Avoid aspirin, as it can thin blood, increase, or continue bleeding. Ibuprofen (Advil) may also encourage bleeding, so ask your surgeon what s/he recommends.

More serious cases may merit a prescription for pain medication from your doctor. Be sure to read my thoughts on opioid pain medication to stay safe from any harmful side effects or potential addiction.

Personally, I urge patients to switch over to NSAIDs after the third day to reduce their risk of addiction—but always take your surgeon’s advice. No matter what type of pain medication works best for you, start taking it before the anesthesia wears off. Waiting too long can leave you in more pain than necessary.

As an aside—try not to take any of these medications for more than several days after your extraction, if that. Acetaminophen (Tylenol), in particular, can damage the liver when taken excessively. All over-the-counter medications like these have potential side effects, so your goal should be to take as little as you can for as short a period of time as you can manage.

How much time should I budget for recovery?

I’d advise limiting activity for the next one to two days. Oral surgery is still surgery. Give yourself a rest day or two to heal and let your mouth begin to heal. Be sure to avoid heavy exercise as well; the delicate clot in your extraction site will thank you for not getting your blood flowing.

Ok, so schedule a 2 day nap?

After the surgery, you may be tempted to immediately lay down, but think again. Firstly, you’ll want to take medication before dozing off. To stay ahead of the curve, take your first pain medication dose before the numbness wears off.

Secondly, keep your head up. I don’t only mean that as a cheery saying. Keep your head propped up when lying down or nap sitting up to prevent more bleeding.

Tooth Extraction Aftercare

Your dentist will update you with written aftercare instructions after your surgery. It’s important to follow them closely. This reduces your risk of dry socket and infection. That’s always a good thing!

Here are some great suggestions from my years of extracting teeth.

Keep It Up

I mentioned this once, but the best thing you can do for recovery after a tooth extraction is to keep your head elevated for three full days without lying flat. Try a pillow like this one for optimal recovery angles.

Oh My Gauze

Immediately after surgery, the dentist will cover the socket with gauze and ask you to bite down. As you apply bite pressure, a blood clot will form over the hole where your tooth once was. Think of it as a much more delicate scab.

The damp environment in the mouth uses this clot to heal instead. Be sure to us a gauze pad in the extraction site for 3-4 hours to ensure clotting. If the initial gauze becomes blood-soaked, feel free to change it for a clean one. This may be necessary every half hour or so.

It’s important to keep applying pressure. However, don’t chew, simply bite. Chewing on the gauze can wiggle the clot around, which will prolong bleeding. (9)

Tea Time

If three to four hours have passed and bleeding continues, try a dampened black tea bag onto the wound. The tannin chemicals in the tea will aid in clotting.

Ice Ice Baby

Often, the jaw may begin to swell after a few hours. You can moderate the inflammation by applying an ice pack intermittently for ten to 20 minutes. Be sure to put it on the same side as the tooth extraction.

The sooner you begin to ice, the better your chances of reducing the swelling.

Don’t Suck

Your blood clot is your temporary best friend as it protects your extraction site and nearby nerves. It’s also busy promoting healing in the bone and damaged tissue. Do not rinse your mouth, spit, or use a straw for 24 hours. These behaviors may dislodge the blood clot.

Basically, avoid anything that would create suction. If you do dislodge the clot, it can lead to a painful condition called dry socket. This happens when sensitive nerve endings are exposed to air, food, and the inside of the mouth.

Risky Business

There are a few conditions that increase the risk of dry socket: birth control use, more difficult tooth extractions, and poor oral hygiene. (10, 11) If you fall into one of these categories, be sure to talk to your dentist about how you can stay complication-free.

Spare the Site

Don’t forget to keep your mouth clean to avoid the risk of infection. Be sure to prevent plaque, tartar, and bad bacteria from getting near your precious pulp. But don’t touch that extraction site. Irritating it with a brush or mouthwash will delay your healing and potentially destroy your clot. Good hygiene is your friend during this time. (12)

Salt in the Wound

As I mentioned, avoid rinsing the mouth for the first 24 hours. After the first day, a very gentle salt rinse (no spitting!) can actually be beneficial. This will help keep your extraction site clean, with an added bonus of relieving pain and potentially helping stitches dissolve.

I recommend using one 8-ounce glass of water and adding Himalayan salt until the salt stops dissolving to create a supersaturated solution of salt water. Remember to be very gentle as you swish it around your mouth. You’ve probably gathered by now that dislodging the clot is not going to be fun, so be careful. (13)

Lights Out

Don’t smoke, no matter how intense the urge may be. It dramatically increases the time it will take your mouth to heal and creates the same clot-dislodging problems as a straw. (14)

Be a Softie

I’m sure you can imagine that chewing won’t be as fun in the initial day or two after surgery. Soft foods are your friends directly after an extraction. Try bone broth, coconut water, scrambled eggs, bananas, and avocados to avoid any pressure or pain while promoting healing.

A word of caution: Sugary foods will delay healing of your extraction site. While it might be tempting to live on ice cream, pudding, and jello while you’re on soft foods only, these will actually be worse overall.

Time Is On Your Side

It will take 1-2 weeks to see new tissue and bone growing in, but the area will eventually heal over. Your blood clot will dissolve when it’s ready and your extraction site will be less sensitive as time goes on. In the meantime, don’t poke objects or your tongue onto that precious extraction site.

Risks of Tooth Extraction

While tooth extractions happen around the world every day, they are not always 100% safe. There are a few complications and risks involved if you have a tooth extraction:

Jaw fracture: this is uncommon and usually seen in older patients with complications. Likelihood of fracture increases with lower bone density or osteoporosis.

Soreness in the jaw or mandibular joint: many injections, long procedures, or lots of pressure will cause a bit of stiffness.

Nearby damage: the teeth or any dental work could be damaged in a tooth extraction. You may see cracked fillings or teeth in extreme cases.

Sinus hole: a hole in the sinuses may open during extraction of a tooth in the upper back of the mouth. This will generally heal on its own after several weeks.

Continuing numbness: an irritated inferior alveolar nerve can leave your lower lip, chin, or jaw still tingling or numb. This may last 3-6 months in unusual cases. Extremely rarely, this may be permanent.

Dry socket: the painful exposure of nerve endings in the mouth.

Leftover roots: your dentist may leave the tip of your tooth’s root behind if it poses a major risk to extract.

Only 4.6% of patients experience complications after third molar extractions, but the side effects can be unpleasant. (15) As you can see, serious risks can arise from having a tooth extracted.

This is why I never recommend an extraction unless the patient actually needs one. Far too often, I see patients look at tooth extraction as a quick fix to a dental issue, but that’s far from the case.

Keeping a patient’s tooth is almost always the best choice. Root canals, crowns, and other measures are often preferable to removing the tooth. With this in mind, be sure to discuss your options before deciding on a tooth extraction.

It’s inadvisable to leave an empty extraction site in the mouth long-term, and dental implants, bridges, or dentures can be costly. Leaving the extraction site empty can lead to shifting teeth. This may necessitate orthodontics as your teeth move to fill the space.

Jaw bone under the extraction site may also weaken over time if no implant is added. (16) There is also evidence that more tooth extractions equal more overall health risks down the road. (17)

Call Your Dentist if You Have These Symptoms

Heavy bleeding or severe pain more than four hours after your procedure

Nausea or vomiting after your extraction

A fever and chills that could point to an infection

Redness, swelling, or excessive discharge from the extraction site (Some swelling is to be expected, but combined with other symptoms, it can be a sign that something has gone awry.)

Coughing, breathlessness, or chest pain

Bloody nasal discharge

Don’t panic. Most of these issues are infections treatable with antibiotics. In rare cases, they may be symptoms of something more serious, so do not wait to let your dentist know.

Any strange side effects, such as those listed above, are worth mentioning. Dental health is connected to overall health, so don’t try to explain away concerns after a procedure.

Average Cost of Tooth Extraction

The cost of your tooth extraction is determined by the type of dental treatment you need. The more involved the procedure, the higher the cost. Other considerations can also affect cost. Common factors include area of the country and experience level of your dental professional.

Simple Tooth Extraction Cost

A fully erupted tooth costs $187 on average to extract. This would be a case where the tooth has grown above the gumline and has no complications.

Surgical Tooth Extraction Cost

This is for more complicated case, like partially erupted teeth or impacted ones. Tooth impaction occurs when teeth do not erupt above the gumline. At this point, incisions and a more complex procedure are needed. The more intense nature of this extraction raises the price to a national average of $400.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction Cost

The cost of a wisdom tooth extraction depends on several factors. The largest determinant is going to be the number of teeth that need to be removed. Not everyone needs all four teeth extracted, and many people have less than this number. Genetic factors make these teeth hard to predict.

Another major factor is if any of the teeth are impacted. This can occur on top or bottom, and an impacted wisdom tooth will need surgical extraction.

Removing one non-impacted wisdom tooth can cost $140 on average, while an impacted wisdom tooth can run roughly $400. However, many dentists offer discounts for removing all four teeth at the same time.

Including anesthetic costs, the American average cost for wisdom teeth removal hovers around $1,900.

Wisdom teeth patients will also likely need an exam, averaging around $200, to determine treatment. X-rays may also be necessary to determine where the third molars are in the mouth. These cost an average of $105 around the country.

The cost of an extraction on its own can look minor next to larger costs like root canals and crowns. Initially, it is cheaper.

However, as I’ve mentioned, a tooth extraction should typically be followed up with additional treatment. This aftercare has its own pros, pitfalls, and costs.

The next section breaks down follow up costs for patients after tooth extractions.

If you’re feeling anxious at these numbers, you should know that there are many options. Yes, even for those with financial concerns or no dental insurance. Here are my seven cost-friendly options for getting dental work on a budget. Removal of a tooth isn’t impossible to afford.

Orthodontics After Tooth Extraction

Great news for patients with overcrowded mouths: you may be off the hook unless your dentist recommends measures to align your teeth. For all other instances, you will almost invariably need more treatment after extraction.

The American Academy of Periodontology has found that failure to address the space where your tooth once was can lead to shifting teeth, bite issues, and more. Here are a few of the most common options:

Dental Implants

Often, the most likely candidate is a dental implant, or a new false tooth implanted into your mouth. Once your bone has had time to heal, usually 6-12 weeks, the implant process can begin.

Typically, this process takes 2-3 visits and can run from $3,000-$5,000.

Bridges

Bridges consist of 1 or more implants, anchored onto adjacent teeth with crowns. This can be a good option if more than one tooth neighboring tooth was pulled.

Bridges are priced based on the number of teeth affected. Therefore, they can range between $1,200 and $2,400 on average.

Braces

With all this new space in your mouth, you may need orthodontic care.

If this is the case, your cost can vary considerably, from $3,000 to $13,000. The type of braces you choose and your insurance will affect where you fall within this range.

As you can see, though extractions may cost less upfront, your follow up options are no small matter. Talk with your dentist to see what type of treatment is best for your teeth, your budget, and your future.

Wisdom Tooth Surgery vs. Tooth Extraction

Wisdom tooth surgery has a few key differences from other tooth extractions. A typical tooth extraction is a more extreme measure often used as a last resort. Wisdom tooth extraction is necessary for most patients and much more common.

Lower wisdom teeth are among the most likely candidates for dry socket, and the recovery time can be longer due to the larger number of teeth removed.

Finally, there is no need for implants or replacements in wisdom teeth extraction. Wisdom tooth extraction generally doesn’t affect the alignment in the rest of your mouth. Here are my top tips for faster recovery from your wisdom tooth extraction.

Bone Graft

If you’re going to get an implant, dental bridge, or denture after your extraction, talk to your surgeon about bone grafting. This is a fairly new standard of care that many people forget to discuss when talking about extraction.

When a tooth is removed, the alveolar bone it was attached to naturally tries to close in on itself. In doing so, there can be bone loss, which can make procedures to replace that tooth more difficult (and expensive) down the road.

Research shows that doing a bone graft very soon after a tooth extraction greatly improved the quality of bone and alveolar ridge during healing. (18) In my experience, bone grafting is a beneficial standard of care in nearly every case.

While a bone graft will increase the cost of your tooth extraction, it will be a better option financially (and physically) than waiting. Speak with your dentist or oral surgeon about this procedure when planning to have a tooth pulled.

Tooth Extraction FAQs

Is it safer to get an extraction or a root canal?

A: This question always gives me pause. In almost every case, it’s preferable to save a patient’s tooth if possible. Perhaps this rush toward extraction is due to the spread of misinformation about root canals, especially in recent documentaries.

A root canal will never be 100% clean, but having multiple teeth pulled can be a harbinger of larger issues. So, it’s best to just do your research, chat with your dentist, and decide what’s best for your needs. At the end of the day, root canaled teeth have a longer lifespan than implants after extraction. (19)

What type of dental specialist performs tooth extractions?

A: An oral surgeon is a specialist that can perform extractions. There are a few reasons to seek out this type of specialized treatment. Common ones are cracked teeth needing to be removed, impacted extractions, or dentist referrals. Oral surgeons are highly qualified to deal with a complex tooth extraction and any ensuing complications.

Residencies for oral surgeons require students to perform thousands of extractions before they even graduate. In fact, the average oral surgeon has studied for 12-14 years before certification. (20) Rest assured, you’re in experienced hands. If it looks like your extraction could be difficult, an oral surgeon is a great route.

It’s been 5 days since my tooth extraction and I’m still hurting. Is this typical?

A: There are many factors that could cause mild pain five days after surgery. My first question would be if you are taking your pain medication and antibiotics as directed. Is your clot still in place, and have you followed your aftercare instructions? Failure to protect your clot or follow directions can lead to discomfort.

I’d also ask how what type of tooth extraction was performed. For wisdom teeth, mild discomfort for one or even two weeks is fairly normal. Please note that severe pain is a different symptom altogether, and can indicate infection or dry socket. Check the section titled “Call Your Dentist If You Have These Symptoms” for more information.

The bottom line? Your pain should be decreasing over time.

I have a cavity! Is my tooth doomed? Will I need an extraction?

A: If you’ve been diagnosed with a small cavity, you may be surprised to learn that you can take natural steps to heal your minor cavity naturally. Even if you do need a filling, you can take preventative care of your mouth. This helps to avoid future work, including extractions. When you take proactive care of your oral health, your whole body benefits—and so does your wallet.

Is tooth extraction painful?

A: During the procedure, you should feel nothing more than pressure. Any pain should be immediately reported to the dentist performing the extraction.

If aftercare directions are followed closely, a tooth extraction should be mostly pain-free. In one study, patients receiving simple extractions said the procedure had very little effect on their quality of life. (21)

What are the side effects of removing teeth?

A: Patients missing most or all of their teeth are found to be at a greater risk of poor nutrition, plaque in their coronary artery, asthma, and diabetes. (22) Periodontal disease leading to tooth loss can also affect other areas of health. (23) However, implants can help with many of the alignment and jawbone issues caused by missing teeth.

What is the best painkiller for tooth extraction?

A: Many people find 400 milligrams of ibuprofen to be effective at managing pain after a simple extraction. (24) I’d recommend taking this dosage three to four times a day, as it can also reduce your swelling.

If your dentist prescribed an opioid pain reliever, try to limit your consumption. Each day you remain on opioid pills drastically increases your chances of addiction.

My tooth really hurts. How do I know if it’s an extraction emergency?

A: There are a few situations where this may be a true emergency. One is extensive bleeding in your mouth that is not caused by brushing your teeth. Also, if an abscess (swollen pocket filled with pus) appears, it could be a dangerous sign.

Almost all other signs other than trauma to the teeth or face should be seen by a dentist as soon as possible during normal business hours. (25)

Key Takeaways: Tooth Extraction

Three possibilities exist for tooth extraction: simple extraction, surgical extraction, and wisdom tooth removal. The location and needs of the tooth determine which type of extraction will be needed.

You can expect a pain-free procedure during tooth extraction, but the importance of aftercare cannot be overstated.

Do everything possible to care for the blood clot as it heals the bone and tissue underneath. Rest, ice, eat soft foods, and follow all directions as you wait for the wound to close.

While extractions are affordable, the implants and orthodontics needed afterward can be costly. Try to preserve the natural tooth when possible. Root canals are no more dangerous than extractions, and evidence shows multiple extractions (other than wisdom teeth) heighten your chance for other disease.

If you have a more serious extraction need, an oral surgeon will be happy and qualified to help.

Myths About Tattooing

1. Getting a tattoo is more painful than giving birth to a child.

HAHAHA, this one really made me laugh!

FALSE: Absolutely false. Getting a tattoo is nowhere near as painful as giving birth to a child. When you get inked, it does hurt, but the pain while tattooing is nowhere similar to the one when a women delivers a baby. If at you wonder what it feels like to get a tattoo, then the best description for it is – it’s like scratching a bad sunburn, or when several ant bites you on one place, nothing more than that. It is painful, but not like childbirth.

2. Multicolored Tattoo Can’t Be Removed.

FALSE: It is however true that colors like yellow, white and pink are the most difficult to remove even with laser treatment also. But black colored tattoos can be removed with laser as they respond better to laser treatment. Also, the more pigments there are in a tattoo, the more likely it won’t be removed.

3. Tattoo guns contain only a single needle.

FALSE: Have you ever seen a tattoo gun? NO….. Actually, tattoo guns contain multiple needles which are grouped in odd numbers, which depends on how much coverage and shading the tattoo requires.

4. Scratching or peeling a healing tattoo won’t harm the final tattoo.

FALSE: However, scratching or peeling or pricking at a tattoo can even cause a permanent loss of pigmentation in those areas.

5. Applying a lot of ointment can heal a tattoo faster.

FALSE: In fact, applying a lot of ointment to a tattoo can cause bubbling at the surface of the tattoo and complicate the healing procedure because the skin can’t breathe due to too much of ointment on the area. Also, if you keep your tattoo too dry that can cause the skin to crack. So, there needs to be a medium application of ointment rather not too much not too less.

6. A medical- grade autoclave is always required to ensure the disinfection and sterilization of tattoo tools.

TRUE: In fact very true! A medical- grade autoclave is always required because boiling or disinfecting liquids are not the same and hence do not provide the same results as does the medical –grade autoclave.

7. Getting into a chlorinated pool with a tattoo will fade the colors.

FALSE: The truth is chlorine cannot get below the first layers of skin just like a needle and, therefore, chlorinated water cannot cause the colors to leak out or fade. And, and you don’t have to worry about chlorine fading your precious tattoo. However, make sure that you do not enter into a pool with an unhealed tattoo that is still oozing and raw, that’s all the precaution is!

8. With a tattoo donating blood is not possible.

FALSE: It is not true however, according to the American Red Cross, if you are tattooed at a parlor that uses proper sterilization and is state regulated, you can donate blood even immediately. On the other hand, you cannot donate blood until a completion of a year after getting inked.

9. You can always get a bad tattoo removed with laser.

TRUE: Yes, it is true that laser tattoo removal treatment is gaining popularity, but there are a few pointers to be considered. Firstly, it hurts… it literally hurts a lot! Secondly, it is very pricey affair, and moreover your area where you got inked will be left with a pretty visible scar. Most importantly, laser removal of tattoos depends on the quality of the ink used in the tattoo, if the ink used in your tattoo is of high quality then it may not completely vanish from your skin.

10. You can contract HIV/AIDs from tattooing.

FALSE: If you are getting tattooed at a parlor that uses proper sterilization and is state regulated, hygienic and clean and uses fresh new needles for every sitting, there is hardly any reason to worry about getting HIV. Just a precaution, everyone claims to be a tattoo artist these days, make sure you are not getting tattooed by a shady dude under a staircase of a bar, then the minimal chances of contracting diseases via tattoos are there.

11. Don’t get any water on your tattoo.

TRUE: Yes, you must not “soak” a new tattoo, only a gentle hand-washing of it is required in order to remove harmful bacteria from the healing tattoo. Make sure when you shower, just apply a little extra coating of ointment to the tattoo and avoid direct water splashing on it. Also, when done with bathing just blot off excess ointment. That’s all!

12. You are disease ridden if you have a tattoo.

FALSE: Absolutely false, nothing like that. As, having a tattoo has nothing to do with your state of health. In fact, few decades back it was believed that tattooing would spread HIV, hepatitis or other diseases. Today, there are many procedures for sterilization and even the industry is regulated, contracting HIV or any other disease is also nothing but a myth. Every professional artist uses sterile equipment before tattooing.

13. Tattoo loses its form when the body goes through a transformation.

FALSE: Losing or gaining weight is a huge body transformation. If your tattoo is not too detailed to begin with, losing weight will not change the look of your tattoo. Though, lines that run too closely together could blend and cause a distorted image that too a bit, but this is a very rare occurrence. Similarly, weight gain also causes minimal changes in each body area. The only problem with weight gain, however, is the possibility of stretch marks. If you get stretch marks in the area of your tattoo, then it will spoil your ink. And if the stretch marks are deeper than the damage will be more – and it is irreversible

14. Tattoo stays forever.

FALSE: Tattoo will generally not go like that, but the fact remains that tattoos are not as permanent as you think. It is highly likely that your tattoo will begin to fade as time passes especially due to too much sun exposure, or improper healing etc. However, there are still measures that slow down the fading of tattoo to some extent, but, it can’t be completely unavoidable.

15. Making a tattoo makes you look cool or gangster.

FALSE: No, it isn’t like that. No tattoo can make you look cool or gangster. Tattoo is just a type of art that is done on one’s body. It has nothing to do with making people look cool or gangster.

16. Tattooed people are hooligans.

FALSE: It is not like this. This is just a mindset of few who personally do not like getting inked or them who are inked that’s all. Stereotyping is a common habit amongst us all and eradicating it absolutely is not possible, but you go and get inked if you want……now is the right time to start.

17. Is it a good idea to show off your love through a tattoo?

FALSE: Actually it depends on situations, as such there is no problem in getting inked to declare your love for your partner as long as you are 100% sure that yes this is the one you are going to get along all your life. More often than not, at the spur of the moment thing may change, your own tattoo start to bring sadness to you whenever you will see it after the break-up. Well, I am not saying that you will surely get a break-up but just in case, when things start to turn sour it is a bad idea.

18. Getting a tattoo will make you look better.

FALSE: There is a famous saying, “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.” You may take tattoo a reason to make you look better, but that is not true, it only depends how you take beauty, what is the definition of beauty for you. That is all and nothing much. Your looks have nothing to do with your tattoo and vice versa.

19. Avoid exercising immediately after getting a tattoo.

TRUE: You should try to avoid exercises that may pull or stretch your newly tattooed skin. Like: if you got a new tattoo on your chest, there are certain weightlifting moves which may be irritating. Irrespective of the type of exercise you usually do, apply some moisturizer and cover the area with a bandage to reduce irritation and abrasion. Also, bathing just after your workout just to wash off any sweat and salt that can be potentially irritating. Finally, you should avoid contact sports until your tattoo is completely healed to reduce the risk of skin abrasion. Most importantly minimum gap of 48hours is a kind of must before working out after getting a tattoo.

20. Tattoo fades away when you get old.

FALSE: It is not true, however, tattoo needs maintenance. All you need to maintain your tattoo is to moisturize your tattoo at least once in a day. Make it a ritual.

21. One can get skin allergy and blood poisoning with tattoo.

FALSE: This is just a general mindset which people usually have that getting a tattoo can lead to skin allergies. There is nothing like that. If you get your tattoo done from the right artist and in the right hygienic conditions, it doesn’t create any problem.

22. People below 18 cannot get a tattoo.

FALSE: There is no age limit for getting inked. Yeah, kids can’t get it after all it is a painful affair. But at teen and if your skin is mature enough to get the tattoo, you can surely get a tattoo even if you are not 18. Getting inked will not have any health hazards even if you are not 18.

Birth Story!

Finn about an hour after he made his entrance.

Someone that I know (let’s call her ‘Beth’) recently put up an Instagram about the birth of her son via C-Section. She posted this with best intentions of promoting April as Cesarean Awareness Month, but some of the content in her caption has inspired me to look further into C-section and natural birth and share my birth story. I’m hoping that what I write, I write without bias and I am aiming to give a full and well-educated picture of labour and birth.

From the word go, I knew that I wanted to give birth as naturally as possible, and I’m very fortunate that I was able to have Finn with only minimal intervention by the doctors and midwives that looked after me. For Beth, her baby was in breach and growing at too fast of a rate for her body, meaning she was put forward for an elective c-section. I think everyone that has been through it, can agree that birthing a child is painful no matter which way you do it. So it bothered me that Beth has written off how hard natural labour and birth can be as she testifies that a C-Section is the harder experience. Amongst other parts of her post, this seems really quite misguided; especially considering you really can’t comment on which is harder if you haven’t experienced both.

In 2017, 11.5% of UK mothers had planned C-sections. A planned C-Section is performed at 39 weeks. By performing the surgery at 39 weeks any risk for the baby’s health is majorly reduced as well as risks to the mother. For a elective c-section that mother generally has to have a medical condition (diabetes, high blood pressure or an infection that can be passed to the baby, such as HIV) or the baby poses difficulty in labour (the baby is in a breach position or if the mother is carrying twins). One of the perks with an elective c-section is that it’s, for the majority, predictable and calm compared to a natural birth.

Instead of turning up at the hospital on a chosen date and time, I made the call to my mum that “it was time” at 2:30am after not being able to get comfortable enough to sleep, and my contractions starting to ramp up. I had a sweep 6 days before I went into labour, at which point I was 3cm dilated. My midwife warned that when the baby decided it was time to come, it was probably going to be quick. 13.5 hours of labour says otherwise. A c-section takes out that time in labour, with the average c-section surgery taking just over an hour (15-20 minutes to deliver the baby and 45 minutes to stitch everything back up).

Another thing that Beth mentions in her post is that during a c-section, a woman's “organs are torn out and put back together like a jigsaw”. This is entirely inaccurate and scaremongering at its best. Though c-sections are considered major surgery, no organs are taken out of your stomach - honestly, they don’t flop your intestines out - the only parts of you that are affected are your abdomen and your uterus, both of which are cut open to give access to the baby. If any organs are touched by the surgeon, it’ll be your intestines and bladder, and it’ll only be to nudge them out of the way for a better view of the uterus.

Diagram of a C-section

Compared to a relatively short procedure, labour and natural birth is long and physically gruelling on your body. My mum cleverly explained labour to me as feeling “like toothache in your belly.” It goes from an uncomfortable throbbing to having you double bent in a pain that radiates throughout your body. I have a very high pain threshold - something labour definitely validated to everyone - but I dreaded the 2 hourly dilation checks by the midwives. PJ counted down the time to the next one as a form of encouragement to get me through it, but it didn’t make me look forward to them any more. It doesn’t hurt, let me just make that clear, but when your body is going through the throes of labour someone touching and prodding at you is the last thing you want.

Eventually, after about 11-12 hours I was told that I could push - I’d been wanting to push since I was 7cm about 3 hours earlier, but was told “to fight the urge” - after around 1.5-2 hours of moving into various positions and pushing for my life, my contractions completely died off due to exhaustion. The midwives had tried to feed me toast to give me energy several times, but I just threw it back up. At that point I was taken to a different area of the labour ward and hooked up to a drip of Pitocin to reboot my contractions. I remember asking the senior midwife how long it would take to kick in, I’d literally finished the question and went into very powerful contractions, which would eventually see Finn born.

Finn was born at 16:55pm on the 20th of August and was a “kiwi birth”. A kiwi birth is the medical term for a baby delivered via ventouse. A ventouse is a suction device that is attached to the top of your baby’s head; when you experience a contraction the obstetrician or midwife will gently pull on the device to help birth the baby. In order to get Finn out, I was also given a small procedure called an episiotomy. An episiotomy is the widening of your vagina; a small incision is made along your perineum in order to make delivery easier. If you have any intervention, such as ventouse or forceps, you’ll probably have this procedure. It does add to your postpartum recovery time and is really uncomfortable. I had to sit on pillows for about 2 weeks after Finn’s birth to help with the pain and soreness. The recovery time after a natural birth is substantially less than that of having a C-section; my episiotomy cut took just over a month to heal completely with an OCD level of personal hygiene downstairs to prevent any infection. Women that deliver via C-section, on average, spend twice as long in hospital and have a recovery time of at least 6 weeks. The placement of the post-surgery scar means that it is painful and your mobility is greatly reduced. Knowing how busy I was with Finn in the first month after his birth, I can imagine that this does make those first 6 weeks very difficult for mothers.

I experienced above average blood loss during birth, nothing too scary but it warranted taking iron tablets for the month afterwards. I was lucky that I was looked after by a team of excellent doctors and midwives that stopped the situation getting out of control and potentially causing unnecessary trauma to me, both physically and mentally. Some of the not so lucky women can develop a condition called Tokophobia, which is overwhelming anxiety associated with a traumatic previous birth and often leads to mothers choosing elective C-sections for subsequent children.

I could go into the the risk that vaginal birth can potentially have with vaginal tearing and stretching, however your midwives monitor this throughout you labour and will intervene if you are at risk of either of these.

Another associated problem with C-sections is that they make breastfeeding harder after delivery. I know that this is something that Beth struggled with. However, so did I; and out of the two of us, Beth is the only one that was able to continue breastfeeding her son for any length of time. I had to stop after 2 weeks with Finn as my milk production was far too low for what he needed, and I put this, in part, down to the fact that my body was trying to recover from the trauma of his birth. It was healing that bits that needed healing and shutting off the bits that it didn’t see as entirely necessary at that point. This means that Finn has been formula fed for essentially all of his life so far, but that’s another story for another time.

And so concludes my birth story, and passive-aggressive rant at Beth. All I will say is that childbirth takes it toll on your body, regardless of how you deliver. The whole “one way is harder than the other” school of thought needs to stop. It can create unnecessary pressure, fear and guilt for expectant mothers, which really isn’t where their focus needs to be. As long as mum and baby are healthy and thriving at the end of their birthing journey, that is all that matters.

If you do have any worries or concerns about any element of pregnancy, labour or birth, speak with your midwife. She’ll be able to offer some advice or signpost to someone that can help.
