Diapered at Dentist

Recently went with a girlfriend to the oral surgeon so that she could have her wisdom teeth removed. She was put under for her procedure. She had to change into a gown and was given the choice to wear a diaper or get a catheter. She choose the diaper option. They gave her a molicare diaper to wear. They commented that have had several patient that were incontinent during their procedures and it was cheaper to have patient wear diapers vs cleaning their chairs/beds.

Wondering if anyone else has every worn a diaper at the dentist. I have worn diapers to the dentist under my jean for, but have never been required to wear a diaper.

I went to the dentist for a regular check up today and wore one. they never said anything.

I always wear a diaper at the dentist as I have no control. That and I have to turn off my neurostimulator and thing get kind of soggy.

I'm a 24/7 so I wear the diaper to the dentist too.

once I had to seat for more then 2 hours, he asked me in one of the breaks if I need to use the toilet, I just said it's OK and he didn't ask again.

I always wear diapers and plastic pants when visiting my dentist. I also bring my own plastic bib. She knows that I'am a nervous patient and she and her staff are very comfortable with babying me a little.

Absecure, i wonder if the dentist wondered why u didn't need to use the toilet! i wonder what he was thinking!?!?

When I got my wisdom teeth out, I probably should have worn a diaper.

Have gone in wearing on occasion but never was asked to wear by DDS medic. I would of course choose the diaper, also.

I have just it was the week of thanksgiving on a monday

Yep I wear all the time... including the dentist. I think its been twice now...

It is the responsible thing to do. I certainly would wear a diaper if I was going to have an extensive amount of work done.

Is this the norm with wisdom teeth removal? Still have mine but just wondering if they will ask me this when I do have them removed.

Thanks,

I seriously doubt this is any wide spread practice. I've had wisdom teeth out at an oral surgeon with no mention of diapers or catheter. My daughters have as well - and have been sedated pretty heavily with no mention of any such options or requirements.

What kind of sedation did you have? I imagine it has something to do with that.

Too bad...I'd have gone for the diapers!!

If you are getting laughing gas or any type of sedation other than a numbing shot at the dentist i think you should wear a diaper. It just better in case of an accident. I wear a diaper when i am getting gas at the dentist. I feel more relaxed and it hides my erections.

I had no idea about the dentist EVER requiring diapers, but this opens up a whole new can of fantasies for me now lol. 😉

Ntcvp nowhere in any statement on here did anyone mention that the dentist required you to wear diapers. Maybe you just mis-read the thread.

All anyone is saying is they have done it and under sedation some may have wet themselves , but not by the sedation from the dentist. Some members here are incontinent for real and may very well need a diaper under sedation for a procedure. But at no time would being put under by a dentist make you pee your pants therefore making you need a diaper.

Since I wear my cloth diapers and plastic pants 24/7,because I like feeling like a toddler/baby and not out of necessity,I usually wear them to the dentist too and no one has ever noticed

Ya know... when I waz little, I had so many teeth probs, i went to Dr. Murray Clury I wore diapers there cuz they MADE us do it! Then they changed thier rule after someone filed a law suit against them! They didnt use laughing gas or numbing meds! So it felt HWLL!! *sorry for my language... no other word to describe my pain...*

It would make it a little more fun. 😃

I will certainly think about wearing when I go to the dentist as I am always bursting to go when I am in the waiting room and don't want to be in the loo when I am called in

I have worn diapers to the dentist one and it was pretty obvious that I was . I had laughing gas for the first time that is it , I am very thankful that I was wearing a diaper.
