I won't go into details, since you might already have info from your dentist, or you can Google it, but just be mindful about that. It was unnecessary pain that I didn't take care of until a few days of body-numbing pain.

The only weird thing was watching someone tug really hard at something attached to me, but all I could actually feel was pressure. I hope it goes well for you--I'm sure it will!Sugarmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04425625624997484305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20010349.post-61106459278245043862007-05-14T15:03:00.000-05:002007-05-14T15:03:00.000-05:00OUCH!

It hurt like hell for 2 days afterwards, adn I literally did not eat for about 36 hours. The 'good' side effect was a 7 pound weight loss....without even trying :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238815301476349162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20010349.post-4924535737751739392007-05-14T12:29:00.000-05:002007-05-14T12:29:00.000-05:00Is your dentist pregnant?

I made the mistake of drinking and or eating hot fluids & foods sooner than I was supposed to. I felt so good, which was such a surprise, that I just did my own thing. That dumb move led way to a nasty infection, requiring antibiotics and another procedure to clean everything out. <BR/><BR/>So for what it is worth, that is my storey. Good luck and God Bless<BR/><BR/>from Mrs. Rev.

I wondered where they had gone, as I am a freak the other direction and was born with one wisdom tooth that looks like it will never drop. My little bro was the same way.<BR/><BR/>Um, that sounded like I was gloating, I'm not! I have had enough dental woes to feel VERY sympathetic to your plight. I'll be thinking of ya!bonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01844859687652489596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20010349.post-14087654371341070852007-05-14T09:43:00.000-05:002007-05-14T09:43:00.000-05:00By frozen, I assume you mean local anesthesia?

I was given a choice and preferred local because I don't like to be knocked out, it screws me up for days afterward. The one piece of advice I would give, if I may be so bold, is something that was actually suggested by my oral surgeon at the time: if they'll let you, bring a walkman or ipod or whatever you have with your favorite music on it. Some of the noises the drills and such make are kind of alarming and it's better if you have something nice to listen to.<BR/><BR/>Good luck! I was puffy and sore for a little bit, but mostly I just remember being psyched to have an excuse to get out of gym class.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20010349.post-10976619155459646042007-05-14T08:43:00.000-05:002007-05-14T08:43:00.000-05:00I had mine out but I was a wimp and was put right ...I had mine out but I was a wimp and was put right out for it.
