If possible, please make sure when they remove the teeth they remove
the ligaments that currently attach/hold the teeth to the bone. If
this is not done a most horrible infection can occur. I speak from
experience with this. Some dentists will say it's not necessary but
that's only because they were not trained to take the few extra
minutes it takes to clean down to good healthy bone. Even
veterinarians know this is necessary.
When I lost 12 teeth some years ago I too wanted to forego pain meds.
My advice would be to get the prescription filled and have it at home
just in case you need it - better to be safe. Someone very wise told
me I wasn't going to get any rewards to trying to tough out the pain.
I'm glad I got the meds I did - my lower jaw produced unbearable nerve
pain. If there's alot of pain you don't want to be taxing your adrenal
glands, which is what will jeopardize the immune system/cancer more
than pain meds for the short-term. You want to heal as quickly and
painlessly as possible.
"Typically" the maxilla (upper jaw) pain doesn't tend to be as bad as
the lower jaw (unless it involves the sinus areas deeply) and the
upper areas don't tend to dry socket as much either - this has to do
with the way the blood flows to the jaws. So you may have some luck
there. My recommendation is to follow what they tell you to do - they
will say things like if you smoke, absolutely do not until the area
heals, don't purse the lips or suck through straws for the first few
days, etc. Salt water is always a good rinse after the first couple of
days and has pain qualities as well. This MAY be all you need to fend
off pain. Things like L-theanine will help keep the anxiety down -
sometimes anxiety produces more pain. There's a very good product
called Body Mend homeopathic drops from BioEnergetics you can order
online here. You do drops every 10 minutes the entire first day, then
drops every 30 minutes the next day. I love these:

When I've had areas cleaned out of my jaws this is all I've had to
use. Look to homeopathics to help with the pain too. Sometimes
bromelain helps with inflammation in the area.
Not to give false hope, but it's possible you will heal your breast
cancer more quickly after these teeth are gone. The very real link
between oral pathology and breast cancer is coming to the forefront.
They are doing amazing things with doing thermograpy to the head/face
as well as the breasts and are seeing links between the two. Not just
root canals and filled teeth but the toxins that sit in the wisdom
sites where teeth were extracted.
Please feel to write me offline if you want the BioMend drops site or
want more alternative suggestions - I went through my own dental
experience and trying to heal cancer as well.
Hope this helps some!
