Wisdom Teeth pulled?

I have to go to the dentist's on the 30th and I'm 17 and I was just wondering if anybody had to get there wisdom tooth pulled and if so what could you tell me about it? I'm kinda nervous about getting my tooth pulled if I have to!

Wisdom Teeth pulled?
I had 2 wisdom teeth pulled at the same time.


They basically knocked me out with drugs so I didn't feel a thing.


I woke up in the chair after it was done and I was barely aware enough to walk.


I had to be helped to the car and driven home by my mom.


They gave me even more drugs (vicadin I think) that I took for about 3 days after-wards.


Basically, I didn't feel anything thanks to the drugs.
Reply:good luck
Reply:Dont worry so much.


I was so afriad I put it off for over a year and it really wasnt as bad as people make it out to be,


youll do fine
Reply:It really isn't bad! Youll have to eat super soft foods for a few days but it isn't painful really.
Reply:It is not bad at all!!! Yeah, you'll probably hurt, but if you take the pain medicine, it is not bad. I really expected it to be worse. The only problem I had was that I couldn't take the tylenol 3s. They made me sick. Other than that, don't worry too much about it. I did it when I was 16.
Reply:I had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled at one time. It was not all that bad. You can't talk very well for a couple of hours afterward because your mouth is numb. Good luck.
Reply:well some have died right there on the dentist chair


haha just kidding, naw its a simple procedure


the dentist is well trained,just follow his orders


make sure you don't smoke,or use a straw,also keep


gauze in your mouth try to keep it moist.to prevent a dry socket
Reply:iave had 2 pulled. neither was impacted. both had come thru the gum lime somewhat.





they shoot you with novacane and when numb they grab it and pull it out. quick and painless. you just feel pressure





impacted is a whole other story.


my other 2 need to be taken out surgicaly. the dentist said he has to crack the 1 and take it in pieces bcse of the way it's laying. the other one will also come out in pieces and he needs to take some jaw bone out to get to the tooth properly





needless to say i have been putting that surgery off till i can't stand them anymore. i just don't want to deal with it. but i guess i should bite the bullet and do it.
