It's not such a bad ordeal. I had all four of mine out in the one go, they were all impacted so I had to get them cut out of bone. I remember a night or two waking up in extreme pain, but overall, you get painkillers which are good, so you just take them and lay in bed for a few days watching DVDs.

i haven't been to the dentist in about eight years. and it shows.

I was supposed to make an appointment to get mine pulled back in May. I still haven't done shit about it. I should probably do that soon.

i still have my wisdom teeth. the top two are ok but the bottom ones are fucking agony. i told the dentist who said that she could take them out but i would be in substantial pain for weeks. not a good option, not even for the medication.

Ugh , yeah i had to get mine cut out too . one of em was diagonal . i got T3 (tylenol caffeine + codeine ) which do fuck all . if i had said i was allergic to codeine maybe they'd have given me the goods .

wisdom teeth are useles recesses of evolution.
I only have one and it's twisted, with two tails and is almost perpendicular to all the others.
My dad's dentist but he said: better not to take it off, let's wait and so he just cut the flesh around it... so painful when anestetics go away... ah!
I was on tachidol (paracetamol+codeine!) for three days...codeine+THC is a terrific combination...

I've only had one of my wisdom teeth out, but it came out like a dream. I didn't even realise he'd removed it until he was waving it around in front of my face.

so, i leave in about five minutes. i took some valium about 45 minutes ago (as per the doctor's instructions).

i don't think i'll be posting for a day or two.

i think i may have already made a post about this, but whatever.

about a month ago, i went to the oral surgeon's office to get a consultation about getting my wisdom teeth removed. they took a few x-rays and while the surgeon was showing them to me and explaining what she was going to do, she points to my back, bottom, left molar (in front of the wisdom tooth) and goes "hmmm, that's odd." now, teeth are supposed to have two little prongs sticking into the gum. on the x-ray the roots of the tooth looked blurry, like they had moved while the photo was being taken. the surgeon said she wanted to take another x-ray just to see if it would happen again. when the second x-ray came back, it was the same thing: it looked like the roots had moved. so she says "Brendan, this is very strange, it appears that this tooth has an extra set or roots. i've never seen anything like this." so, i've been telling everyone i'm a mutant.

and as for how the surgery went, i don't remember shit. i think they gave me an IV, but after that there's nothing. my next memory was my mom waking me up and telling me i had to eat something before i could take any pills. and the fuckers still didn't give me any narcotics. they gave me something called meperidine and some antibiotics. and my teeth fucking hurt.
