It hurts. It huuuuuuurts. I got my wisdom teeth taken out about 4 hours ago and the novacain is starting to wear off. My lips, tongue and chin are completely numb though. Figures it couldnt go back to where it hurts lol. It feels weird to swallow. Oh, and I have like 7484832 pieces of gauze taped to my arms and hands because it took them 25 min. to find a vein for the IV. I swear I am not exaggerating - it took that long! Meangya there were 3 D.A's and the dentist and they ket switching arms, then going back.. then theyd try the hand, then the other, then theyd go up past my wrist.
When they woke me up I was all ![]() ![]() ![]() and they kept telling me to keep it down because there was another patient in the other room lol. I seriously felt drunk and had no idea what the hell I was doing, nor could I barely talk. Oh.. and then one of the D.A's came in to change my gauze and she told me not to laugh and stuff because I was pushing it forward so my mother jokingly said "Oh, lets put duct tape over her mouth!" and the D.A is all... "THIS IS YOUR CHILD! I OUTTA TURN YOU INTO SOCIAL SERVICES!!!"O_O! |

hehe. I remember talking to a friend of mine after she had her wisdom teeth removed. She was still under the influence of anesthetics. She was acting a little strange..but I guess her mom took her to Dairy Queen right afterward, and she was just staring at people trying to talk to her, cause she was so loopy. Haha.

I hated getting mine out. The vicodin didn't do a damn thing for me. The funny thing is that I started reading a book right after I woke up from it.

oh man I loved getting my wisdom teeth out. I'm probably the only person on this planet who has ever said that, but the laughing gas... oh my God. There's nothing like it. And the Percoset... it's just plain great. I'd do it over again if I had to.

I had mine out almost 10 years ago, I wasn't in too much pain afterwards cause of the painkillers, I hated the stitches I had to keep in my mouth. The stitches were the kind that would dissolve away after so long(a couple weeks)

I'm surprised you have enough strength to be typing at the comp 3 hrs later. When I had my wisdom teeth pulled, I was weak and out of it for about three days, I had them taken out when I was seventeen

So far, the dentist believe I may be one of the few to not have to have 'em removed, at least by necessity....

She put the needle in different parts of my arm at least TEN times! After a while I felt like I was going to pass out.

That's what I was gonna say! Anyways, Crystal... sounds like you had one hell of a trip! That is freaking rough about the vein--would have ticked me off. When I have mine taken out, I want to be awake, because I only have one wisdom tooth. Didn't they give you any good drugs to take for the next few days or so? Lmao@your reaction when you came-to. What was up with that hygentist saying, "THIS IS YOUR CHILD! I OUTTA TURN YOU INTO SOCIAL SERVICES!!!" I hope to God she got your mom's joke about the ducktape...

sorry that you're in pain, hope you feel better soon.
And am I the only one that was not affected by laughing gas? It just felt like I was asleep with my eyes open for some of it but the only thing keeping me from feeling anything was novacaine. And it makes me feel like my hands fell asleep with all pins and needles. I pretty much remained sane except when I went to the recovery room to lay down the oral surgeon went to shake my hand I stuck my foot out at him. ....

Thanks guys! Yah that lady didnt get the joke at all. After my mother was all.. 'she brought out the Italian in me out!' so Im just all.. OH GOD -___- DONT MAKE A SCENE.
Yah I was really loopy after so I went to bed right away. At first the pain had be reduced to tears, but its getting better. Doesnt really hurt so much now, just really uncomfortable. Uh, I didnt get any painkillers because Im stupid and didnt take any $$$ out ahead of time, and I didnt feel like going to the bank to take out money. Not to mention I ran out of checks, and I didnt get my new ATM card sent. LOl figures. But Im just gonna take Ibuprofen, it really doesnt hurt that much. But damn, I havent opened my mouth since I got out like 12 hours ago. Ugh yeah those 25 min. were a pain. Im afraid of needles, but not when it comes to the IV and stuff like that, if he had been given me shots.. that wouldve been a different story. The lady gave me some nitrous oxide to calm me down, and after a while it felt like the thing around my nose was tightening up, but it was just my mouth going numb . What hurt more was when he kept flicking and smacking my arm and hand to get a vein to pop. Meangya!

I just could not fathom that the lady would actually say that to your mom about "child services"... not to mention, not understanding your mom's joke in the first place.
![]() Hmm, I thought it was standard to give out narcotics after wisdom tooth surgery. I'm glad the pain is getting better though. The whole wisdom tooth ordeal SUCKS. I don't want to go through it this year! |
