4 wisdom teeth, not as bad as they said it would be

[dr nein]

Nope. Only have 2 wisdom teeth and they don't give me trouble unless I'm chewing a lot.

yup, ive had some teeth pulled, and it does indeed suck. you need to follow the post op rules to the 'teeth' or else you may end up getting dry sockets...they ache like a mother fuker.

[BlackJackal]

they didnt tell me what to do to avoid "dry socket" . just said "put gauss in mouth, squeeze down, and change every 5 mins till bleeding stops. take tylonal if pain persists." i swished with warm salt water first to help stop bleeding then later on cold water. the gums seem clotted up fine now.

Ditto, they shot me with stuff so my mouth would go numb, I couldn't talk straight for like an hour.

Had two removed when I was like 12 or 13, required a few injections in my mouth....Painful, and kinda scary (I used to be scared of the dentist in my younger days) but looking back, very necessary.

Like guar, I had 4 pulled for braces. Now that Im done with braces 2 years later I have to get my wisdom teeth removed since the teeth in front of them are keeping them from coming in. That's coming up soon and I'm definately not looking forward to it.

That sucks, you'll be short of teeth.
