Will the dentist give me my teeth after he/she pulls them?

I am going to the dentist on Monday to have 7 teeth pulled (4 wisdom, 1 extra wisdom, 1 molar in front of the lower wisdom and 1 upper tooth. If I want to keep one of my wisdom teeth will they give it to me, or is there some policy that says they have to dispose of the teeth?

You can ask for the teeth, but if there is any decay on a tooth it is considered a bio-hazard and they aren't supposed to let it leave the office without proper disposal. Ditto for teeth that come out in pieces. Hopefully you'll be able to take home that extra wisdom tooth (if it's an upper it may come out intact), they usually look like cute little mini-molars!!
Reply:No they will give to you if you want them.
Reply:wow that's a lot of teeth. = a lot of pain.
Reply:they will give it to u. just ask for them
Reply:from my personal experience, yes they will give them to you if you ask for them. be warned though... the wisdom teeth don't always come out in one piece!
Reply:The dentist will give you your teeth if you ask for them. When my husband had his teeth pulled, I asked the dentist for the molars and made a pair of earrings out of them. That was back in my biker days, though. The husband and the earrings are long gone now.
Reply:If you ask them they will give you the tooth, but I remember when the first time I went to a dentist this lady didn't give me the tooth eventhough I told her I wanted to take it home. So, its all about the luck of the draw, if you get nice people they might give it to you, if not they won't.





Have a nice time at the dentists office. I'm glad all my teeth have been squared away.
