end of next month im getting cones of bone drilled out of the back of my jaw, reshaped and pinned to the front so i can get a tooth implant... im pretty sure theres plenty of you on here with fake teef... so... how much pain ami looking at? they said id probably be on my ass for a few days... but anyone got a call on how soon i could get some headache free skiing in?
 
I had to do the same thing. Except i needed alot of bone so they took a big piece out of my hip. I not gonna lie, its gonna suck really bad cuase it hurts alot. My only suggestion it to take alot of pain medication. Like if they tell you to take 1 every 3 hours take 2. Basically just get fucked up on the stuff for like a week or two.
 
your hip? owww. i broke my back and at the same time got a hairline fracture in my pelvis. it hurt thousands of times more then my back did and it was only hairline.
 
yeah i had a skin graft when i had a finger ripped off in a boating accident...i didnt really have feeling there so it didnt hurt so bad but i can imagine that a bone graft is gonna hurt a little more that sounds way more core to me. good luck man.
 
yeah they reattached it...it was kinda hangin by like a little muscle...it got caught in a rope on my sea doo and it was like a slipknot around my hand and just crushed it like a turnicut and basically my pinky finger took the worst of it and was mutilated...microsurgeons had to take veins out of my foot (vein grafts i guess) and put them in my pinky and they had to do skin grafts on 3 of my fingers. They all work perfectly fine now and i have full feeling and you cant even tell anything happened unless i show people..they did a real good job
 
no idea about the head, but someone i know just had one done from their hip and had it put into her arm and she was walking around the next day with very little pain.
 
get really strong painkillers but try not to take them. And then take them when everything is fine. Bump them, feels good. Or sell them that works too
 
I broke my sesamoid (bone in oyur wrist) and had to get it taken out and then a bone graft from my hip to replace it. It sucks for a bit
