I just got 6 teeth pulled out about 30 minutes ago.

4 wisdom teeth, cuz they didn't have enough room.
2 premolars on the top cuz I'm gonna get braces (actually invisalign, but they do the same thing) and to straighten all my teeth, 2 needed to be removed so the rest of my teeth have enough room.

I now have a lot of gauze in my mouth and I can't feel much.
I'm gonna have to take some painkillers later, and I can only eat really soft foods.

Sooo, I guess the next few days are gonna suck. Oh well.

Anyone who's gone through this wanna share their experiences or any tips/advice?

This, and make sure you don't eat anything that can get stuck in the holes now in your mouth, esp the wisdom teeth holes, cuz they're big. I got rice stuck in their because I was dying for chinese food after not eating real shit for a few days and my god, that shit hurt coming out.

Also, don't smoke, but they probably already told you that.

Think cheery thoughts and keep your mind actively on other things (books, StarCraft strategies, currents news items, etc. might help...) when you're awake, and try to get some peaceful/restful sleep when you're not trying to stay awake. Good luck! xO ~

I was lucky with my wisdom teeth, no swelling and no pain. Had a whole prescription of vicodin too, but didn't have to use any.

just sleep, the pain and bleeding should be gone in a day or two, but it'll feel sore for at least a week.

Lol I just had my wisdom pulled out excatly one week ago. In fact, later today I am supposed to go back to the clinic for a check up.

I would advise using the gauze for only as long as you are bleeding. I think they made my swolleness worse than it should have been.

Eating yogurt, watermelon juice, and fruit smoothies really helped me. Not only did they taste good but I think they really help you recover as well.

Good luck man, the pain and discomfort and lack of solid food will be frustrating but try to make your life interesting.

The oral surgeon that took out my wisdom teeth (all 4 at once) recommended that I rinse 2-3 times a day, preferably after meals, with warm salt water to help the healing process. Not sure exactly what that does, but I suppose it can't hurt.

For me, the pain wasn't that bad most of the time so I didn't take too much pain medication. The main problem was just finding foods you can eat with minimal trouble. My suggestion is yogurt and perhaps during the later half of the week try very buttery garlic bread. If the garlic bread has enough butter and it was freshly heated then it should be nice and soft. Also, by the end of the week I was craving something more solid like bread. Ice cream also sounds like a good suggestion.

thanks for the tips


update

I got rid of the gauze. i hated it. i also drooled a LOT. and there was still bleeding too. i just ate some baby food that my mom got me, and a little bit of cottage cheese and a thing of yogurt. baby food was good. i also took a painkiller right before i ate.

Phyre: about rinsing; my doctor said not to rinse until 24 hours later, but yours said to rinse? or is the 2-3 times rinsing after the first day of extraction?

Snet: omg what's your secret?

for the rinsing, just do it after you eat something. i don't know about if you should do it after the first day or not but it wouldn't hurt to wait a day before trying if that's what your doctor told you. just make sure you don't swish it around with your mouth closed. the suction from doing that can remove the clotting and make you start bleeding again.

make sure you rinse though, because if you don't your mouth will feel disgusting really fast.

No don't rinse first day. Then after that, rinse after meals with warm salt water to help fight bacteria and infection. Do that for like 2-3 weeks. It's a slow process...and I am one week ahead of you I guess.

Oh and try to take meds with your meals.

I never got my wisdom teeth pulled (24 now) probably should have because now my left tooth behind my canine tooth is twisted 90°. It doesn't hurt or anything its just weird.

My friend got his wisdom teeth pulled a few weeks ago, He couldn't eat any solid foods for a week or two and was planning his comeback meal the whole time. So funny.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

I have a serious question, can you drink alcohol a week after you get your wisdom teeth pulled?

Please tell me what the fuck is porridge?

My sister got her wisdom teeth pulled and she said just eat yogurt, icecream and do NOT put any pressure on your mouth like a popsicle or something.. Take vicodin and dont smoke weed, eat it.

Porridge is any grain/cereal boiled/cooked using water and/or milk.
Examples would be the oatmeal people eat for breakfast (like Quakers), grits, or congee (the porridge made of rice and water that asian people like).
