Mine just grew pretty normally, I had no idea most people had problems with these until a few years ago. Someone in a conversation said I'd have to get them removed, I was pretty sure they were putting me on.

Got mine out (4 of them) a couple of years ago. Lost 10lbs after eating only apple puree for 2 weeks.
Still remember that disguting blood taste I had in my mouth each morning.
Fun.

OK, so I went and had it done yesterday morning..
The assisting nurse wired me up to the eky, pulsOx, etc - it started to go 'bee....bee.....beee.' - I said 'oh, thats me doing the beep sound then, isnt it ?', she said 'sure is', so I said 'ok, lets slow that down then', and it instantly dropped about 15bpm, to her surprise...
So then she took about 1/2 hour to find a proper vein and get my line in, at which point the dentist came in, said hi, and we started chatting -he asks me a question, and as Im answering I suddenly have a problem streaming the real world in real time - over the course of 2 minutes, I brokenly tell him 'ah - you've started doing the thing there, haven't you ?', meaning the iv anesthetic, and he doesnt answer, I just get the buffering motif for a few seconds, then the next thing I know, I'm getting up and sitting into a wheelchair.
No pain, nice druggy feeling - fun chats and laughter with the staff.
Came home, began taking percocet and generally becoming dizzy, sleepy and intolerably wise about everything on tv. Woke this morning with bloody taste in mouth but no swelling, and no pain.
Good job, overall.

I consume excessive quantities of crystalline fructose and smoke methamphetamines so my wisdom teeth will rot away before they become a problem.

i had mine out this year. it wasn't as bad as i expected.
the worst part about it all was the fragments of bone/tooth that came out of my gums afterwards.
oh yeah, and i puked blood on the car ride home. that was fun.

Never had them. I also have almost no fur.
Either I come from the future or I should never have left kindergarten. (This statement is a redundancy.)

darn it -
I went to the dentist this morning - before 8am for some ungodly reason, and they told me I have to have 4 wisdom teeth out or they'll go nasty.
Im booked in for Thursday at 745am - I;m really quite nervous, but looking forward to the drugs, so.../

i remember eating ice cream that afternoon and trying to drink sprite or something, and it dribbling all over my chin and shirt (i think it's one of the pictures of me from my wisdom teeth thread) - also the doctor told me i had to sit down to pee for a day or two or i could pass out and crack my face open. fun fun.

there is a hole in my cheek where the gums and cheek meet that keeps letting the old blood seep out into my mouth. My breath has to smell like cow dung, god this is disgusting.
- pack with gauze?bulletfactory
- wouldn't really help, its like the clot somehow dislodge a bit and is just letting is slowly seep outrodzilla

I was allergic to the antibiotics, so all the dried-up blood from all the swallowing I did came out while I threw up during the entire week.

had mine out all at once - 5 months ago. the pills are awesome (i had percocet)! get as many refills as you can!! (oh and i had 10 wisdom teeth - wasn't as bad as i would have imagined, considering). the numbness in my lower lip went away after 3-4 months, now it's hyper-sensitive, but getting better (he said he was dangerously close to the nerve down there). Not a total nightmare as I had built it up to be for years of putting it off.
- 10!!??D_Dot

:)Jaline - You got there before I did :P
(I see that my reaction is similar to before)Jaline - ha!!bulletfactory
- By the way, it is safe to have all 10 out at once? I guess it's easier than coming back and not eating solids all over again.Jaline
- he said it was up to his discretion, if he thought he has done enough 'damage', he would stop.bulletfactory
- Bullet's family interbred with Sharks eons ago.Mimio
- i replied with, 'that may be the last time you ever see me'. - i'm really glad he did them all.bulletfactory
- OK. Seems kind of risky.Jaline
- he is a fabulous surgeon - he said he had dreams about the procedure for a week before thinking and preparing.bulletfactory
