All 4 Wisdom Teeth at once

MrMerkinball

ALL DONE

Very drugged and sore

Given to...

Had most of it done years ago. They planned on taking all 4, but after using all of the novacaine that they had alloted for 4 teeth, they were only able to wrestle 2 of them out. Dentist said that was all the drugs I was allowed in one sitting... funny as hell with him practicaly sitting on my chest grunting and sweating to get the crooked bastards out!

I was back to chewing Copenhagen in about 6 hours and never changed my diet over to soup.

BTW, i quit that nasty habit about 9 years ago.

I've had all four removed at once. The worst part was the tylenol and codeine they gave me. I had a nasty reaction.

depends on your pain level, I suppose. I don't recall it being that bad....also had 4 perm. teeth taken out since I did not have room for them!

Enjoy that pudding and jello!!

I had all 5 removed at once. Yup. I had an extra. I don't remember a thing, that was 12 years ago. I was knocked out.

Nah your just more evolved than most!!! I had 3, my cousin had 2...so we're thinking in our kids generation that they should possibly have only 1 or none. Evolution baby!!!

On Thursday morning, I am getting all 4 wisdom teeth pulled. 2 are impacted, and 1 is "fused"into my nasal cavity.

I know it's going to be bad when the Surgeon says I will experience "a great deal of discomfort". :shock:

Wish me luck. I know I am being a huge wuss, but I am really nervous.

I had all 4 taken out a few years ago. 2 were impacted. the important thing in healing well is to constantly rinse with water.

yum!
the no straws thing does suck.
glad you're doing well.

i had all 4 of my wisdom teeth surgically extracted, all at once, probably when i was 24-25. it was easy, under GA. i was scared b/c i had never gone under before, but man, it was fine! the drugs afterwords were awesome too. i used to smoke back then and was told not to due to the whole dry-socket possibilities, but i admit, i did smoke. :oops: otherwise, i followed all the after-care to the letter. i think within a week i was right as rain.

Are they knocking you out? Anesthesia tends to make act a little strange coming out of it. Apparently I was singing along to the Fleet Foxes all the way home. I had no clue there was blood dripping out of my mouth. I do remember that I was pretty happy most of the day.

Yes I was asking for a balloon before I left according to my mom.... Of course I sort of remember the assistant telling me to take my time getting up. Then I remember her telling me okay you got to go now, so I through up on her after warning her I wasn't ready...
