Default Re: Wisdom Teeth Anaesthetic Question

I had the IV when I got mine pulled 3-4 years ago. I remember the surgeon talking to me about football and then waking up feeling groggy and drunkish in a different room with a Sports Illustrated in my lap.

You don't feel anything right after the operation because of the painkillers. However, in the few days after, your cheeks swell to chipmunk level and you will experience a dull, constant pain.

Other Cons:
- I had to stick gauze pads in my mouth for a few days (I had all 4 taken out) and when I took the pads out they were all bloody and filled with puss. Not the prettiest sight.
- You can't really do anything for the few days after, you have to ice your cheeks on and off for 30 min. at a time and you feel like crap the whole time.

After 3-4 days you will be fine.


To your original ?:
I don't think weed will have any effect on your anethesia. You will be OK.
