Had my wisdom teeth out

kemet64 · Aug 16, 2004, 11:03 PM

Well, this morning I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out....all I have to say is thank god for versed (sp). All I know is it makes you feel like you are floating....then you are out. I mean, I woke up wondering when they were going to start...and they were done. I must also say vicodin is wonderful too. Anyways, im glad to have them out finally....and look forward to...well...right now my sound card and speakers arriving, haha.

Aww man I know how you must feel, I'm waiting for a trip to the good ol' dentists on Wednesday. Meanwhile I feel like my head is going to explode. Toothache has got to be the worst thing.

The missus has offered to kick me in the nads to take my mind of the toothache.....if it gets any worse I might take her up on the offer.

1 of my wisdom teeth grew in perfectly, the others are still up for debate lol

i think what they told me is this...i have room, but they are kind of turned an odd direction...so we dont know if it will work out or not.

i had all mine removed, plus a baby tooth that was stuck for a while, cuz it had no where to grow. i was under anesthesia when all this happened. Thank God that i was, cuz i would have been probably screaming in pain during the operation. Anyways, i don't remember much, things went black after they inserted the needles...

heheh......i've been lucky. Last time i went in to the dentist, he said my wisdom teeth weren't even growing in cuz they weren't showing up on the X-rays. This was about 1 1/2 yrs. ago tho. Dunno if they are actually going to show up or not.

kemet64 · Aug 17, 2004, 03:33 AM

Well this wasnt a dentist I went to....oral surgeon. But yea, it wasnt bad at all. Only took about an hour...painless...no problem at all.

I had mine removed over 10 years ago. All four of mine were impacted so it wasn't a very pleasant experience for me; especially after the drugs wore off.

OUCH!

I had my lower right wisdom tooth pulled a little over a month ago. I only had local novacaine and had to go into work that evening.

What's funny is: I 'thought' I'd had my wisdom teeth pulled when I was younger. Honest! I never realized I still had all 4 of them.

I'm still getting used to the void in that area.

mainman · Aug 18, 2004, 08:08 AM

Well i guess im very lucky then, cuz i have all 4 of them and their all perfect, no trouble at all.

CDsDontBurn · Aug 18, 2004, 10:02 AM

mainman.....you're one of the very few people who don't need to have their wisdom teeth pulled out.

i wonder tho why they're called "Wisdom teeth" if they don't really make you any smarter....usually just cause pain.
