Life is going to be a whole lot longer than you'd like if you can't adapt and overcome.

NP. That’s great for you, but anesthesia has a very powerful effect on me and I slept for 20 hours out of the first 24 after my wisdom teeth were removed. Everyone doesn’t have the same experience.

Next time don't get the anesthesia

FOR REAL! It's Wisdom teeth, not your spleen. Geez Christmas. I have had 2 pulled, it's not major surgery, most people don't even get gas. What makes your surgery so special, are your wisdome teeth in your ass or something?

OMG I'm a dentist and I'm laughing. I would love to see that!

Where is the father?

Since OP thinks it’s pertinent to ask personal questions and know all about someone’s personal life.

OP, is there no Dad? No husband?

OP here: You need to STFU.

Ok OP, you need to calm down. Maybe they TOLD you it was Wisdom teeth, but really you are having a lobotomy.

Having just experienced something similar I get your frustration. In our case it was my H who's getting a procedure done at a local hospital and it was canceled the morning of due to an unexpected power outage at the hospital. We had to scramble regarding childcare and work for the reschedule. Not the best thing in the world, but also not the worst. This too shall pass.

Your dentist could be sick and do you really want someone with a communicable disease performing an operation?

Try to be understanding and less dramatic, OP. Also, your parents flew in for this? Wow.

You need to find another dentist. This is so unprofessional. They should have explained what happened. Something came up is the oldest excuse in the book!

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the dad(s) aren't in the picture.

I get a call this morning saying something has come up and they need to reschedule. I chose this doctor because he does Saturday appointments once a month. I am getting my wisdom teeth removed because I am starting orthodontic treatment soon. This is pushes everything back and it's very frustrating.

this dentist has a life, just like you do. shit happens that people cannot avoid. GET A GRIP!!!!

Although it's not the same if they are impacted teeth (lots of peoples are), then it is a surgery--though a not too bad out patient one.

But yeah, stuff happens to doctors too. I wouldn't want a not 100% because they are unwell person working on my teeth--you know how many nerve endings there are in the area? You can have major complications from screwed up dental work.

I would be pretty mad, and I would let them know.

I almost had a surgery rescheduled at the last minute last summer, and I was very clear that we had a complex set of childcare arrangements, including already purchased flights, and I didn't care which surgeon at the practice did the procedure, but that it was very important it happen in a certain time frame.

They fixed it.

Do you WANT a botched surgery?
Because he's surely not canceling on a whim.

Next time, express your frustration so that it doesn't make you angry at people who probably don't deserve it.

I'm rolling my eyes at OP along with everyone else, but I agree that it can be a real surgery. My wisdom teeth were badly impacted and the surgeon had to remove bone from my jaw to get them out. But even then, I only had twilight anesthesia, not full general anesthesia.

There also could have been a death in the family. Jiminy xmas, yes it's frustrating, but it could be something so awful they can't even express what it is. Now, if they later give you a reason and it's lame, that's different.
