So it's 5 in the morning here in Nebraska and I'm up about to head out to get all four of my wisdom teeth pulled out. Freaking out right now. I hate the dentist/doctor and I keep thinking they're gonna screw up.

I am royally fucked.

[Timo]

Looks like my wisdom teeth are going to fuck with the work 3 years of braces did, so I might have to have mine out too D:

[n00b1n8R]

I wish I was fucked by royalty. :(

[thehoodedsmack]

I remember there was a kid in my town who died from the anesthetic when having his wisdom teeth pulled. Hope it doesn't happen to you!

/freakout

But in all honesty, you should be fine. I had mine done in March, and though it hurt for a few days, after a couple weeks, things were pretty much back to normal, and after a month you don't even notice anything. One thing though, your stitches WILL annoy the frick out of you.

[Hotrod]

I wish I was fucked by royalty. :(
Well, all my familly members that are related to a royal family are dead, the last one about a month ago, so...

Yeah, I'll need to get my wisdom teeth taken out soon, and my brother got his done this past summer. It wasn't that bad for him. He couldn't talk for the first two days, and it hurt for about a week. Considering what it is, he had it easy.

Good luck, and I hope everything goes well for you.

[Rob Oplawar]

stitches? i didn't get any stitches.
All I can remember about the experience is being totally whacked out on anesthetic. I don't drink or do any drugs, but if their effects are anything like that anesthetic, I can almost see why people do it.

The blood is the most alarming part, but it goes away pretty fast. Just try to keep the holes clean before they heal over. It sucks to have them scab over with food residue inside. I know this from experience.

idk why I bother posting tho, seeing as at this point you're prolly already at your appointment.

[TheGhost]

Ahh, I have to get mine out this Winter. Good luck.

[Bossniak]

I got mine pulled last month. It was not all that bad, for me at least. Good luck.

[STLRamsFan]

Got mine pulled a year or two ago. Wasn't bad at all, ice cream never felt so good to eat. :)

[jngrow]

Gah, getting mine out this winter too :/. Good luck

[legionaire45]

I know at least two of mine are going to need to be pulled soon - maybe the other two for good measure.

Probably a bit late, but good luck!

[rossmum]

My teeth are fine. :awesome:

Only actual dental work I've had aside from checkups was a filling (in a baby tooth anyway so it's gone), and repair work done when I chipped my front teeth (fell face-first onto concrete, teeth went through lip, etc.). No braces, nothing pulled, no need to apparently.

[Xetsuei]

Got all of mine pulled about a week and a half ago. That anesthetic (nitrous) was fucking awesome, plus they let me bring an ipod to listen to music. Most awesome experience ever. The pain after I got it done was really only on the first day, the third day after getting it done I could eat some normal stuff. Now it's pretty much healed all the way.

[Saggy]

I didn't actually get my wisdom teeth pulled, but two of my canine (spelling?) had to be pulled because they found another pair of teeth above them that were all ready coming in. It was nerve wrecking at first, especially because I wasn't put to sleep. What my dentist had to do was freeze my mouth, and take plyers to my teeth, and I could hear them crack and snap, but I felt nothing. Only for about a week after they were pulled they hurt to touch but other than that it was kind of awesome!

[Con]

Already got mine out, if they put you out it's quite fine. You'll just be sore for a few days afterwards, but that depends on how long it takes you to heal up. My recovery time was pretty fast. After that, the pain was more bearable.

[dg]

So it's over and done with.

They put me on an IV drip, so they knocked me out that way. Next thing I remember is waking up in my room with gauze in my mouth. They gave me a morphine drip, so it felt pretty good. I went and picked up my prescriptions of Motrin 600 and Vicodin. Now I'm home and it fucking kills on the right side of my mouth.

Fun fact: I guess the ones on the right were impacted. They didn't tell me that. Now I can't fucking open my mouth without having blood come out. Awesome.

[Ki11a_FTW]

i get to keep my wonderful wisdom teeth :-P

[CabooseJr]

Bah, I gotta get mine out this Friday.

[Needles]

Looked up "wisdom teeth". So they're the back ones, and can get messed up/bent around?

I still have mine.

[DEElekgolo]

I have wisdom teeth that revealed when I was about 11. But they weren't slanted or mis-figured so i was able to keep them.

[Rob Oplawar]

Slightly scary fact: when I was put out, while they were removing my teeth, I came to. Apparently it's not too uncommon for people to wake up during surgery. But I was so zonked out I had no idea what was going on. I remember the doctor talking to me, and I remember that when I tried to respond I couldn't enunciate, and I looked down to see why, and saw a bunch of tools in my mouth and a bunch of blood spilling out. That's about all I remember. It was a weird experience.

[Heathen]

Got mine pulled when I was 14. I dont know what the big deal is. It never hurt. Even after. wtf is the big deal.


E: I was awake....wtf?

[dg]

Hmm, are you completely sure that you weren't given any anesthetic or some pain killers?

By the way, Vicodin is the shit.

[Blam!]

How come so many people are having their wisdom teeth removed?

I'm having mine taken out, too... :gonk:

[Bodzilla]

lawl, your all wisdom less xD

[Xetsuei]

By the way, Vicodin is the shit.

Indeed. I still a whole bunch if it left. D:

[ExAm]

I am royally fucked.The latin in my user title means "royally screwed" :v:

I'm not feeling mine coming in at all, when are they supposed to come in anyway?

[ICEE]

The worst thing about having your wisdom teeth pulled is the taste of rotten scabbing flesh in the weeks afterword

[Gamerkd16]

I didn't actually get my wisdom teeth pulled, but two of my canine (spelling?) had to be pulled because they found another pair of teeth above them that were all ready coming in.

I think I had the same thing. It's called Impacted Canines maybe? Two years ago I went through a similar thing. The teeth above weren't coming down so they pulled the baby teeth then attached two small chains from the tooth up in my gum to my braces on both sides. Then at each appointment they would pull the chains down slightly.

The only thing I hate about dental surgery is the needles, and how they are injected right into the roof of the mouth. But the fear can be dulled down a bit if you have some laughing gas.

Still....needles suck. I'm shaking from the thought right now. :(

[jngrow]

Commonly, any time from mid/late teens to very early twenties (although not super common for them to be that late).

[adumass]

I had two my wisdom teeth pulled out last week, hurt for maybe 2 days. I had that side my my mouth numbed with injections, that was the only part that hurt.. I hate needles..

[ODX]

Oshi, I think mine are just coming in, and since I've only lost 10 baby teeth...is that bad? I did just lose two molars about 2 weeks ago, first 2 teeth I've lost in like, 3 years. Some people say now my teeth will be fucked up, and I'll have to get braces again.

[Kalub]

I'm fine.... Kalub™ the Wise!

[Chainsy]

I dont nor will ever have any wisdom teeth. Im evolved fuckas.

[BobtheGreatII]

I dont nor will ever have any wisdom teeth. Im evolved fuckas.

Or you were a genetic experiment from birth. :tinfoil:

[Reaper Man]

It was bad enough getting my upper premolars pulled for braces. Best of luck man.

[Hotrod]

I dont nor will ever have any wisdom teeth. Im evolved fuckas.
Or you're my dad...

[Bastinka]

I got mine pulled 2 years ago when I was 13, my wisdom teeth bottom ones, they were almost fully grown but still in my lower jaws gums.. so they took em out and I chose the sleeping method. I couldn't eat for a week without popping the blood filled areas where my wisdom teeth once were. Wasn't painful all that just numb and annoying.

[Bodzilla]

my dad wont take anesthetic. he Cant stand drooling and dribbling all day so he takes the pain instead.

i've seen them rip out teeth from his mouth with no painkillers and he doesnt even blink, meanwhile the nurses are about to faint lawl.

[Patrickssj6]

I have all 4 of them...and I am going to keep them ^^

I only endure 8 hours of headache once a week but I don't care...my teeth are all straight and this is part of the natural process.

[Corndogman]

My dad never had any wisdom teeth, hes evolved too, so there's a chance I might not either. I hope if I have them they wont fuck up my 2 1/2 years of braces.

[Limited]

How do you know if they are wisdom teeth or just back molar teeth?

Went to the dentist on thursday for a checkup, everythings good.


E. oh snap I think mine are coming

[Bodzilla]

[Bodzilla]

yeah, it was one of those :eyeroll:

[dg]

Pain is completely gone. And I have more than 23 Vicodin pills left.

Everyone should totally have this done.

[blind]

Go out and party dg :)!
or sell them for a sweet profit.

[Xetsuei]

Yeah they prescribe way to much Vicodin just in case there is some pussy that's mouth is hurting for weeks.

[Bastinka]

Take some estrogen too, that stuffs work for Jay.

[dg]

Well I'm going to sell some of it and then keep the rest. 15 mg of Hydrocodone does me good...

[Bastinka]

Hydro?
Shit man, shit.

[dg]

Fuck.

Two dry sockets in the jaw. The worst pain I've ever felt.

[Bodzilla]

suck it up ya wuss.

or you could hit the shrooms and entertain me with another one of your awesome stories.
And i'm dead serious, write a fucking book.
