Wisdom Teeth Removal After 21 |OT| of regrets and whimpers
- Page 1 of 1
After years of dodging this procedure like Frank Vogel dodges offense, I was finally forced to get it done. I never had any pain from my wisdom teeth but every dentist in America looked at my XRays in horror as my third molars are clearly coming in an almost 90 degree angle. By all accounts I should be clawing my eyes out three times a day.
Instead I'm doing it now.
I couldn't get good old fashioned yank and toss action because of how my teeth were coming in so they had to cut my teeth down the middle and pull them out one half a time. Nerve damage can like.... "occur more" or something, according to the PA. The only thing that I took comfort in was the fact that this would be behind me by noon today. But obviously my luck doesn't allow for that.
I woke up to the doctor telling me "We could only get two today, so we'll just have you come in next week to knock out the rest. Kthnxbai." and if I could've dropped my jaw I would've. Instead I get handed my meds and am shown the door to be picked up by my friend.
I'm not built for this. :cry:

I got mine done late. They were coming in at a 90 degree angle and were starting to push my other molars around (which are still crooked to this day). The dentist didn't want to remove any bone, and the teeth were unusually large too, so the only alternative was to hack them into little pieces and pull them out a bit at a time.
Unfortunately, I had to be fully awake and conscious for the whole procedure.
The roots were also tangled with the major nerve cluster in the jaw which, even with a ton of anesthetic, hurt like a bitch. Feeling the dentist fucking around in there with saws and lasers was bad enough, but his assistant kept a running commentary going which really did not improve the experience.
It was a good thing that I had the foresight to smoke a lot of weed beforehand because it helped a lot. The dentist was amazed at my composure.

Should get mine removed soon, I;m starting to bite my back gums on accident frequently and it fucking sucks.
Hopefully I'll come upon some cash.

Right now, I'm all screwed up because the doctor ordered me to use a pillow and elevate my head. I haven't slept with a pillow since I was 12. Feels flat out vulgar what I'm doing to my neck.
Never done mine. I partially think it's a scam. But mine on the bottom are impacted and would come in sideways. I can do it anytime I want, I just haven't wanted to yet.
Maybe some day.

never had any problems with mine, army made me pull them out anyway. my shit still ain't right after almost a year.
I had mine out years ago. My gums weren't healing right so the dentist had to cut open again. I ended up being down like five days-ish. I am the only person I know that had problems with this.
I didn't have my wisdom teeth pulled, i had others pulled closer to the front. Then with bracers, had all the teeth in my jaw forceably re-aligned over a 2 year period.
It was awesome fun*.

Pain isn't too bad today but I've always had an issue with staying ahead of the game when it comes to pain management.

Ping Pong.
Had mine taken out when I was like 18 or 19. Got ktfo and woke up like nothing happened. I didn't feel any pain until the numbness wore off. When I got home I was in complete agony until my sis was able to pick up the pain meds.

Getting ready for round two of this tomorrow... I'm still feeling bad because my gums are growing over my 2nd molar on my bottom right side and its like there's a loose piece of flesh just flapping around in the back of my mouth.

Had my two bottom wisdom teeth out about 8 years ago, they had to cut and yank, was not pleasant. Worst of all I kept hearing from friends how they got put to sleep and got some drugs afterwards for the pain. What do I get? One pill to ease the bleeding and was sent on my way. Not even a recommendation for what drugs I should even get.
Got my two top wisdom teeth out a few months ago, those ones went smoothly at least.

I've lost over 10 lbs since all this started and I swear its been a worse experience than initially being laid up after getting hit by a truck (maybe I was just more aware for this and not quite as heavily drugged up). I've still got rather large sockets in my mouth and its just frighteningly unsettling to chew anything now.
Life sucks now.
