Default Re: Have you had your wisdom teeth out yet?

I had the perfect scenario when I got mine out last year. Right around the same time, I had a couple friends get theirs out and they were both put under. They said they both felt like crap for a week after and couldn't eat normal foor for 2 weeks. They also said the pain was so bad afterwards.

I told my dentist I wanted him to pull mine. I think he thought I was a little crazy, because he wasn't an oral surgeon and usually just referred his clients to one. He finally agreed, shot me up with novocaine (the worst part), and pulled them out.

They bled a little, but I never had any pain. They were a little tender for a day or two, but to show you how little pain I was in, I was eating potato chips 2 hours after I had them pulled.

I went out drinking that night and my friends couldn't believe that I was fine.
