marijuana & novacaine?

I'm getting two cavities filled today & I'm wanting to smoke before I go so that the pain isn't too bad (it hurts even with the novacaine!) but I'm not sure if marijuana is harmless when combined with novacaine.
Does anyone know if it'll cause a reaction?

It's probably best to wait till after... but even then, is it good to smoke with a newly-done filling?

What do you all think??

highly doubtful.. marijuana doesnt have too many bad reactions with other drugs

 

that's what i'm thinking...
i'm probably overly worried, just because i have to get this done in the first place.

i'm swearing off sugar. this sucks.

 

^^^ you dont have to swear off all sugars.. try to just use natural sugars

 

heh, i mostly do! it's either fruit or sugar in the raw.
although i have been known to binge on dove chocolate from time to time...

 

update: decided against it, probably a good thing, since i need as much of my stash as i can get, now that it's all wearing off.

 

i love that novacaine feeling. Although last time I think they hit something wrong because my jaw hurt for a couple of months

 

I did it yesterday. and I was fine. I was not high when I went, just stoned some.

 

I think the combination of being high and getting cavities filled wouldnt mix too well. I think it would kill your high

 

^^ Much Love On The Sig!!

 

ohhh i could never smoke before getting teeth drilled.
for some reason smoking weed makes me waaay more squimish than i already am..
i would probaby faint haha

 

I went to the dentist pretty baked yesterday... it wasnt that bad i just got lost in this random picture of a boat and it was over before i knew it

 

Yea the Mars volta are sick. And i went to an orthodontist apt. high once, and ganja burped during it hahah

 

i tried to drink some water after i got my wisdom teeth pulled (i got an ASSLOAD of n20 too) and the water just fell out of my mouth all over the floor...it was pretty bad

 

I smoked a bowl after getting novicane earlier in the day (like a few hrs before) & part of my mouth was still numb & so smoking a bowl was an adventure. I just wish someone was w/ me 2 laugh w/ b/c it was ridiculous.

 

if anything i reckon getting high beforehand will only make your mouth more sensitive and altogether unpleasurable.

 

I smoked last week and I was fine.

Novocaine is no longer used. They now use lidocaine or xylocaine. Those are links to their info pages.

Read about it here:

During my (extensive) dental experience, I've been told by 2 different dentists that smoking weed (marijuana they say) makes it more difficult for the novocaine to work.
I always wanted the deadener to Work, so I'd wuss out and only smoke a little 3 hours before an appointment - but they told me that didn't matter - it was in my system.
Oh well. Also - it's according to your dentist. Novocaine is definitely still used.

 

haha same here....i'd probably start twitching too when they started trying to pull my tooth out...would not be a good situation lol

 

bud compliments every drug well.
