Relaxing

I recently went to the dentist for an appointment that was likely to last about three hours. Anticipating that it would be stressful, I put a sleep patch on my ankle. As a result, I was so relaxed during the appointment that several times I actually started to drift off to sleep. Each time this happened, my jaw would start to close and my dentist had to wake me up! I was definitely more relaxed and calm than any previous dental visit and plan to take the sleep patch with me every time I go to the dentist from now on.

A week later I had a two-hour, aggressive oral surgery which would require multiple stitches. Again, I wore a patch. After the surgery, the endodontist prescribed several days worth of pain medication, cautioning me to begin taking it before the local anesthesia wore off. However, I decided to try the IceWave patches. As soon as I left the office, I applied the patches to my cheeks (white on the right, just over where the surgery was, and tan on the left). I continued applying patches regularly, and I never even had to open up the pain meds! The only time I felt a slight twinge of pain was when I had left the patches off for a while on two different occasions, and the discomfort evaporated within seconds of applying the IceWave patches again!
