has anyone had their wisdom teeth out? I am getting mine out tomorrow and I reallllllllly dont want too!!!

No, thank God. Though last week I was having major wisdom teeth pain problems. In the beginning of the week it felt like I was teething. I kid you not I almost burst into tears when my mother told me my nephew ate all the gum, but then she gave me some of hers. I chewed on it for like 3 hours and it was such a relief. Now Im fine. It happens every few months or so to me and its so weird, but last time was def. the most intense. Good luck tomorrow!!

Yeah, all four of mine were taken out in the early 1990s.
Afterward, it was more uncomfortable than painful. Sore for a few days (like 4-5), but not bad after that.

I had them out August 13th... pain in my ass, to be frank. They were very impacted. It was very uncomfortable afterwards, and the Oxycontin they gave me for pain made me berserk, although most places give Percoset for pain, a milder form of Oxycontin. The only reason they gave me the strong stuff was because my top teeth were so impacted, they were almost in my nasal cavity. That's a lot of digging :crazy:

The bleeding drives you nuts, and there's still an aftertaste in my mouth, probably because of the laughing gas. But good luck :)

I think I'm supposed to get my wisdom teeth out in October or November this year. I'm kind of nervous. Does the dentist put you to sleep or are you awake for the entire procedure?

Thankfully, no, but I probably will one day. :wallbang

I've heard it's not fun at all. :(

well, I am alive and I managed to kick my parents out of the house for a little...I just took my second pain killer, one side of my mouth is like fine and the other side isnt...but oh well! I really dont like the blood on goths, kinda gross actually, but the goths are nice to bite on too so i dont feel any pain! I know it varies from person to person, but I am going to the red sox on saturday, will I be able to eat real food like some nice fenway franks, or will I still be living off mush?
