Her tooth is almost out, but she won't let us pull it. She says it hurts too bad. What are some ways you guys have pulled teeth before without causing much if any pain at all. She's almost a bigger cry baby than me when it comes to pain.

BS, don't listen to Dinothewap that's no fun what you do is say you just want to wiggle it just a little. Then when she is relaxed yank, push, pull, as hard as you can on it. Most of the time it works. I'm speaking from experience of having two kids.

Differnce is I didn't make my kids suffer! |
|
Relieving pain with pain is not making them suffer. But to leave her in pain is watching her suffer..... Want to fight about it? |
|
I've tried numbing it with Ice...didn't work She has tied floss around it...got it stuck but wouldn't let me pull it out Tried the don't swallow it or no $ thing, doesn't phase her She would laugh at the whole silver $1 thing, her tooth fairy leaves her a $5 I've told her that her breath stinks and will until the tooth is out...doesn't care Kooter told her on the phone tonight that he is going to sneak into her room when he gets home and jerk it out! (Doubt she will sleep well now)

Nah, you be a tough some bitch. Bet you wouldn't worry about a loose tooth!

I had a few similar problems until I simply explained that it hurts now when the tooth moves, but once its out, after a short period of alittle more pain, it starts to feel allot better. Then I said "don't be such a sissy.". Now my kids don't even bother asking for my help, they just show up at odd times with a tooth in their hand, blood dribbling down their chin, and a smile on their face whenever they have a loose tooth. Of course your milage may vary...

| You know we have used the string to the door method as well as the "here let me try and wriggle it." but it always seems to come out while they are eating an apple usually a big green granny smith cause it is, big enough that they have to really open their mouths and use their teeth to bite it. |
Trust me, Kooter got a nice reaming from me about this whole picture thing...it's a good thing he didn't "share" it or I would never be able to face many of you again!

Well....you better not come the LCR then. 
|
and she let the daycare provider pop it out! Now she has this huge hole in the front of her mouth (bottom and top 2 teeth are all out now!) 
|
How it's really done. I'm glad I was knocked the fuck out for my all-four-at-once wisdom tooth extraction extravaganza. |
