The wisdom tooth they are taking out is hardly visible I am a little concerned about the whole thing! Most of it is under my gum!!! I have a feeling this one is going to hurt! They are not going to put me under either (can you hear the tooth cracking in half cause I have heard some stories and from what I have heard it does not sound like fun!)From all the Shi& they put in my mouth today I can only imagine what they are gonna do next week......

If clammer sees this I know he would be compationate....lmao like he is w/ the bloooos I'm not worried! I heard he was medicated from his boating experience anyway!

I never had a root canal but I had all mywisdom teeth taken out at the same time. Mine were a mess, growing straight out sideways, straight forward etc. so they put me under. I'm glad they did. Jaws definately sore afterward.

You're not going to take anything for it?

Are you at least going to use novacaine or the gas during the procedure? Afterwards you can get by just fine with Ibuprofen or something like that.

If you are using a specialist you will be pleasently surprised. I do think you will need some meds after to make your jaw and you more comfortable. You will probably be taking a pain med of some sort as well as a strong dose of antibiotics.

I wish you luck!!

The oral surgeon will more than likely give you a shot of novacaine before he even considers pulling those choppers out, but yes you probably will hear the noises you are describing when he pulls the teeth. By todays standards it's as easy and fast as getting a coffee at Dunkin' Donuts.

I had mine done all at once and there was no pain from the removal of teeth but my jaw was a little sore later on but Advil took care of that pretty fast. The worst part was I had to rinse with salt water to close up the holes left in the gums (salt water speeds up the process of filling in the void where the teeth were). Of course I rinsed with something else later .

If you're willing to go without meds afterwards then you will be able to get through this no problem! Ever jamb a hook in your finger , that hurts more than extraction.

Good luck and keep smiling!

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.
