Anybody had theirs out?
I got all of mine taken out yesterday - I also set a new record, at least with my oral surgeon who has been practicing for 36 years.
I had TEN wisdom teeth (normal people usually have 4).
I am all hopped up on Oxycodone. it is AWESOME at the moment. I'm kind of drifting in an out of awareness but happy.

what? bull fuckin shit you had 10. Unless your parents raised you under powerlines and fed you radioactive ooze that turned you from a normal pet shop turtle into a crime fighting machine. Is your jaw like a pit bull's? If you open your mouth all the way does it look like your head might flop open?

TEN wisdom teeth?? Is that even possible? Are you some kind of genetic freak? Rogue buddhist sage? WTF

I had one of mine out a couple of weeks ago. I now have a hole in my mouth that I keep finding nuggets of food in.
Having it out was easy, but I was on soup with no appetite and a fuck-off headache for a week after. No solid foods, and they're my favourite kind.
- i've been aeating shakes and fruit smoothies. no rice for a month (dammit!) tonight i'm going to have mashed potatesbulletfactory
- Yeah, the food restrictions are shite, just remember to not use a straw when you're drinking you're smoothies!ian

I had 4 taken out, and I vaguely remember removing my piercings before sitting in a chair and speaking to the surgeon. And then...I don't remember how I got home.
- same as my weekends so.ian
- lol.
I don't remember much. How I got home, what happened after.Jaline - ha - same thing here - though in the middle i kind of came around, and muttered "ow", the pumped me up with more anesthesia and then i was homebulletfactory
- anesthesia then i was homebulletfactory

The holes are kind of like soft, tender, suction cups for a while. Until they heal. It's kinda cool, but really annoying to clean.
- Agreed, I get disgusted by my mystery finds. What the hell was I eating!ian
- i am rincing w/ warm salt water 8 times a day.bulletfactory
- you must like that, given the fact that you are a f-ing sharksmrz

ha, no powerlines, my parents each had 4 or less -- i am a tiny person, not sure how they all fit in there - had 4 on bottom and 6 on top. The surgeon was worried that he was going to fracture my jaw, but the procedure was a total success. Aside from soreness and swelling i should be good in a week

For some reason it was very painful for me. I wanted more bottles of painkillers but my dad refused to go and get more, haha. He did make me Mac & cheese for the whole week though.
I did it during the March Break, which....shows you how nerdy I am. I didn't want to miss too much school.

No wisdom teeth out but had about 4 others out in total. Most painful thing in the world ever for me so far was the injection in the gum.
- that's what i'm dreading when he changes the medicated gauze and sews it back inbulletfactory

this is really weird, because I woke up last night with my bottom right gum swollen, one of my wisdom teeth is making a hell of a push. I was going to start a thread called "wisdom teeth" and ask if anyone had them taken out...

what happens if you don't get them pulled out? will your jaw be locked???
- Nah, but you can get nasty infections, they hurt like hell, and painful to eat. Also can sever the nerve to your lips!ian
- For me, all the work my braces did could've been negated from wisdom teeth because they kept pushing everything.Jaline
- yes you can get lock jaw if they grow on impacted, it happened to me, had to be knocked out then they basically forced my mouth open then too them outmoldero
- i hope thats all they did while i was knocked out with my mouth wide openmoldero

if i hadn't gotten them pulled - the ones on left bottom would have started stealing nutrients of the roots of my molars rotting them.
The top ones would have pushed my teeth (which are straight) into a snaggle-toothed mess.
If I had left them in, they wold have caused permanent nerve damage in my face. I did put the procedure on hold for about 10 years - It was definitely time, about once a month they would move around on my and cause what felt like a cold coming on.
- oh shit...i should get mine pulled out. minea re growing in...coco_ono
