Wisdom Teeth

[nixhex311]

I had all 4 pulled out right before I turned 18. The only time they really hurt was 2 days later when I was playing football and got hit in the mouth, but the vicatin took that away. Everything was back to normal 3 days after the surgery, I ended up taking the stitches out myself after 6 days.

I just got mine done a few days after Christmas. All 4 at the same time too. I never really had much pain except for a few hours after surgery. But whatever they put in that I.V. to put me to sleep made me really disoriented and emotional when I woke up. I was completely out of it. And it will ooze blood for a while but other than that I had no problems with it other than looking like a chipmunk for about a week. Plus they put me on oxycodone...soooo I was about on cloud 9 anyway.

I got mine done almost a year ago. All four were completely impacted, and I only had a little pressure on the top row. One tooth, which uses to be really far back in my mouth, is now crooked, but otherwise everything is fine. The procedure is nothing; they stick an I.V. in you, you fall asleep and wake up right insantly with everything done. Everything spins and you feel like you're going to vomit for a couple of hours, but for the most part it doesn't hurt until several hours later. I got some 200mg aspirin which definently did the trick and Hydrocodine, which does NOTHING. I wanted some damn Vicadin.

And about the jaw alignment thing: My bottom jaw became a little misaligned a couple of weeks before I got them taken out. It was really annoying and bothered me so much. But a few days after the surgery, it was fine.

And get ready to get a shitload of food stuck in your holes. Most annoying part about getting them out.

I remember when I felt the pain of my wisdom teeth coming in. It was on Thanksgiving day back in 2003. I couldn't eat shit and I couldn't sleep at night.

That's probably the worst weekend to be having wisdom teeth issues.

I got all 4 pulled when i was 17, got knocked out for it, and then developed a dry socket which made all the pain ive ever had from stitches, broken bones put together not even come close to the pain of a dry socket. It was new years eve and my mom made my dentist come in to take care of me, it was kind of funny because he showed up in a tuxedo.

Getting all 4 pulled tomorrow though only 1 is impacted.

I'll be on an opiate high all weekend.

I don't know why they're knocking me out for it though. Seems like overkill.

Stop axin' questions, the gas rules.

[Rich]

Yeah, on one hand i'm like hmm, overkill.

On the other hand, i'm like sweet hardcore drugs under medical supervision. Put me to sleep and let me enjoy the 20 mins knocked out.

The surgeon gives out Vicodin after, too, none of that codine bullshit. I'll be chasing the dragon into work monday.

You mean riding the snake.
