It's not a big thang...Had mine removed way past the due date. Went so well I had Taco Bell on the way home after they were done.

But if they are impacted...

Nitrous??????

Full Anestesia???

Had all 4 of mine pulled out 2 months ago. The dentist had a hard time pulling mine out. He said that the roots where really healthy and long. He had to crack my lowers to get them out.

It'll take less than an hour. Your mouth will be sore for about a week. Jaw sore for a couple days perhaps.

You'll make it.

Mine were the same way and one dentist told me that they were impacted and thats why I never went back. Few years later I went to another dentist when I worked up the nirve. She told me that they were not impacted and that little point that stuck out of the gum was it. They call it a root stem. You just might have it easier than you think. It starts out as a stem but continues to grow unlike your other teeth. Kinda like your ears...

Been there, done that. i had all 4 removed around a month and 2 weeks ago, two were impacted and 2 were under the gum. I think it was under sedation ; they put an iv in my arm and I passed out and didn't remember anything. The thing that hurt a lot was the IV, I don't know if you ever had one, but I'm scared of needles, and it stung a lot when it went into my vein, my eyes were tearing up, it hurts bad!!!

Other than that I can't say I felt much pain at all, and my pain tolerance is VERY low, everything hurts to me. I stopped taking Vicodin after the second day because it was making me nauseous, and it's very hard to get solid foods into your system the day of the surgery and after (for me at least) so I couldn't take Vicodin. My mouth was sore, but I can't say I felt pain. I feel more pain when I have an upset stomach or even period cramps.

I recommend that you buy Sarah Lee poundcake and eat that after surgery, you don't have to chew it, it melts in your mouth and you can just swallow it, that should help if you take painkillers.

I recommend being put to sleep like I was! For me the apprehension and fear was worse than getting it done. I was afraid I was going to die and even almost cried on the operating table... but in reality it was really nothing... just get it over with!

Ask for the gas...

Might be a little messy with them being impacted..They will probably knock you out..good luck

i remember that when i woke up from the syrgery i told the doctor that he gave me some good shit, drugs are good, they give you a bunch of good pain killers also

[sickkittens]

i think mine are coming in. My lower teeth are feeling the effects.

[Peaches]

I had mine cut out (they never broke the skin) about 20 years ago.

Get the good drugs, do EVERYTHING the doctor/dentist tells you to do - especially about keeping the sockets clean - and rent a ton of movies

[bignasty]

I had one took out because I chipped it, and it wasnt too bad. Worst part is getting your gums to quit bleeding.

[phogirl69]

I also had no swelling for some reason! I think my oral surgeon gave me anti-swelling stuff in the IV, I'm not sure, but I think he was a good surgeon and did a very good job, although it was kind of expensive for everything, even with insurance

My jaw was sore for almost a month though

My fucking dentist gave me shitty codeine. I spent 24 hours feeling as though someone was hammering nails in my jaw. Get some oxy, even if you have to do it illegally.
