Anyway, I have four stiches where my wisdom teether are, and one huge one where they ripped out my tooth, cut my gums open, sawed some of my jaw out and replaced it with plastic. I can't talk, I've spit up about a cup of blood, and I'm on vicodin so I can hardly walk. GSL Finals here I come! gogogo.   | ||

the worst ive ever had is just cavity fillings and you can just get them done without numbing because they dont hurt how long till you're fully better? | ||

Plus Vicodin is mega-cool, now you need to get a cane and pretend you're Dr House. :p | ||

Also in response to the other questions, the swelling should go down after about a week. They gave me some Hardcore drugs so it's gonna be fun time until then. | ||

I am going to get my wisdom teeth checked monday. They are already coming in (which is apparently bad?) but I hope it makes for an easier surgery. Last surgery I was put to sleep something didn't quite go to plan and I have been having troubles hearing ever since. I don't understand the correlation between anaesthesia and hearing loss, but it doesn't affect my ability to play Starcraft so I'm good. | ||

I remember when I got my lower wisdom teeth removed. I was in China and my aunt is a dentist, so we were saving a bunch of money. Anyways, I was wide awake, and got a tiny shot that made my mouth partially numb, then she pulled it out and gave it to me. I was given no pain meds afterwards because they're "bad for your brain". Oh god it was a painful night. | ||

I had to do gauze pads and tea bags. But the majority of the pain comes from where they cut a 4 inch line across my gums and pulled my jaw out. Unrelated to the wisdom teeth, it hurts much worse than the other areas. I have to take Vicodin now. | ||

Maybe the dentists do the easier wisdom teeth extractions, and if the case is more complicated they refer to an oral surgeon... hmm.. I had the top oral surgeon in San Diego county do it. If it was jsut my wisdom teeth I wouldn't care, but no-one is cutting my fucking jaw out without a good rep. | ||
