SO not stoked...

Alright, wish me luck. I'm going to get all four of my wisdom teeth extracted as soon as I leave work. I can't tell you how un-psyched I am to be doing this...

Go, go, go, go!

Just think, for that little bit of time in the chair, so many years of no pain.

Good luck Raziel. Just don't think of the pain.

I hope it hurts! lol j/k... they will num it so it wont be bad

you will feel weird though since your mouth will be numb.

I have two words for you.








Liquid Percoset.

It does not hurt too much(at least in my case), unless you don't take your pain medication. Your cheeks will be soooo fucking swollen, it will look like you have golf balls stuck in your cheeks.

Yeah. The pain shouldn't be too bad, but your cheeks will be stinkin' huge.

Good luck raz, hope it doesnt hurt TOO much.

Do you get them back, if so I think you should take pictures of them and put them on like the wisdom teeth thread or something. And then everyone could put pictures of their wisdom teeth on here.

i still have my wisdom teeth -_- and i dont plan to shove a camera in my mouth any time soon

Mine are in my jaw aswell, I'm anxious to see how he feels..

My jaw is bleeding.

What? Why? GOD

I actually asked if I could have my teeth and they said "no way, Jose." I was pretty bummed.

What was their reason...they are your property....

That isn't fair. You should be able to keep them in a jar next to your bed...

There is no set amount of pain you will feel. For everyone it is different. I've heard horror stories, and I've also witnessed first hand nothing of the sort. I had mine out about 9 months ago, and I was literally eating pizza in two days. I had no swelling, no real pain. Then again, I only had two taken out, and they were only partially impacted.

Oh, and I wasn't numbed, I was knocked the fuck out! That is definitely the way to go, anesthesiology.

Same for me. The doc was like "alright I'm puttin the IV in now... *out* good stuff. Woke up 20 minutes later, went home, took a nap, changed my gauze afterwards, and that was the only time my mouth bled.

Well, here's how I'm feeling for anyone that is curious.

1) My cheeks are barely swollen. They're only slightly sensitive right back where the teeth used to be.

2) I'm not bleeding profusely. Yeah, I'm spitting up blood, but that began to taper off about 8 hours after the surgery.

3) I am starting to get really fucking sick of pudding.

Beyond that, it's actually not so bad. And if I can suggest anything to people getting them out in the future, find an oral surgeon and let him knock you the fuck out. Don't have your dentist do it. They'll use a local anasthetic and you'll be awake for the entire thing. In all honesty I can remember two things before and after I went down.

1) I remember the surgeon asking me if I was in a band and I said something to the effect of "Yeah, I'm in Led Zepplin. I'm Jimmy Page."

2) I remember having the hiccups on the way back to my parents house.

Beyond that, I have no memory of it, and therefore, no innate fear of having to have something like this done again.

So, if you're going to get it done, take my advice. Pay the difference it will cost to go to an oral surgeon, and forget about having your dentist do it. I'm in nearly no pain, but everyone I know that has gone to a dentist to have it done was in excruciating misery. It's worth the extra money.
