If it makes you feel any better, I was born without my wisdom teeth. No surgery for me :)

Its not as bad as many people say. They only bad part is when they stick a syringe into your arm and tape it down. Just don't try to stand right after the operation.

Got all 4 pulled about a year ago. I was under, so I didn't feel anything. Afterwards, I was so drugged up, it was excellent. Greatest feeling ever. I took some painkillers before the drugs wore off, and then I felt buzzed, so I didn't take anymore from then on. I went to work the next day with out any meds, and I felt perfectly fine. Just make sure you finish your antibodies, even if you feel like you dont need them anymore. If you dont, you wont kill all the bacteria, then whats left will just mutate and become resistant, then you'd have bigger problems on your hands....

Dude, it's a pretty enjoyable experience. They put you under with laughing gas and get you high for half your day, then give you painkillers to take for as long as you need them. If all goes according to plan it should be a pretty painless procedure all the way through. Plus I cannot tell you how good it feels to not have those damn teeth poking through your gums all the time.

pretty much sucked. my top wisdoms roots were all tangled so they had to do some intense digging to get em out. when i had the meds in me it was good. (got lortabs). but they would wear off when i was asleep and it would just be excruciating pain till the next round kicked in. i dont know about everyone else. but i hated the feeling from the painkillers. i mean they did a good job. but it just made me really uncomfortable and uneasy with my surroundings

You'll be fine. I had all four wisdom teeth -- three of them impacted -- AND all four of my bicuspids pulled at the same time, and I only ended up taking my first two doses of vicodin before I downgraded to just basic extra-strength painkillers. The worst pain was in my jaw from being locked open, but it wasn't terrible and it went away in a few days. Maybe I just got extremely lucky, but I think most people do just fine. Oh, and when the rest of your teeth start settling into all the newly-made space, it feels SO FREAKIN' GOOD. You don't even realize just how much tension you're carrying around in your jaw right now. You may even want more teeth pulled. :lol:

By far the worst part is the sound, the popping and crunching. The pain isn't so bad, so long as you take care of your wound. Dry socket is what hurts like the dickens.

It's not even bad. It'll be numbed beforehand. I've had mine out and all you feel is slight discomfort.

Dude its not that bad. Honestly the worst part is waking up and feeling sick and groggy for a couple hours after. I puked in the parking lot, felt much better, went home and watched movies and ate soup (homemade! mmmmmm chipotle chicken chowder, italian sausage and white bean soup...mmmmm) for a couple days.

The meds work great. I highly recommend getting something to keep the swelling down. I didnt even need any vicadin and sold it to my friends.

HAHA:

Anyways. Good luck with that. Worst pain of my life. My mouth hurt so bad I could barely function for about 3 days. But I had "hugging" roots that wrapped around my jawbone. I was numbed up and just remember feeling immense pressure, creaking, cracking ... they even had to drill through parts of my jaw to extract the teeth.

But I am sure your experience won't be THAT bad.

It hurt. They numbed me up pretty good,and when I'm numb, I have this thing where I bite myself or stuff. I always try making myself feel the pain afterwards. Well when we were in my car, the doctors told me not to bite my tongue.. well I did anyway, and it bleed.

It's terrible. I recently got my wisdom teeth pulled a year ago, the aftermath (cleaning, slight bleeding, etc) isn't that bad, but now I have TMJ. If you manage to get it too, your jaw will be cracking constantly for the rest of your life.

You'll be fine, but just be prepared to feel like crap for a few days. It was pretty painful after, but at least you get to do nothing for a couple days. Sleep is also your best friend.

My experience, in easy to read form: 1. The horror of knowing that 3 of your teeth will be yanked out sinks in. 2. Arrival at the dentist, syringes are stuck in the rear part of your mouth. 3. Quite a lot of hammering, yanking, and cracking (of your tooth D:) and it's finally done. 4. You're given some ice to keep the swelling down (..still gonna swell though). 5. Headaches... pain near the area of surgery... pain during eating... food getting stuck near the wound. This lasted about a week and a half. 6. You slowly go back to normal life.

It differs from people to people if it hurts or not, I havent had any wisdom teeth removed myself (only 4 normal ones for braces, mycousin and my sister had thiers pulled tho...

My sister were fine afterwards, she was pretty drugged up, but the day after she was more or less fine.

My Cousin on the other hand were pretty much down in 3 weeks... Maybe hes just a sissy tho ;)

That's no problem, all four of mine our out. They broke one in half in my mouth pulling it. Hardly felt it.

What you don't want to ever have is a Root Canal. My brother smashed me in the face with a mini keyboard when I was 7 and killed the root in my front tooth. 7 years old having a root canal really sucked.

I had mine pulled just before 8th grade, and they were already all the way out and straight as my other teeth. The doc just used a laser to slice each tooth in half and pull them out with minimal force. The holes that were left were kinda annoying (food kept getting stuck in there).

My cousin's grew in all messed up, so the docs had to slice up his gums and he was in all sorts of pain.

The process of pulling out your teeth is not bad at all. I was awake when they pulled out my tooth. They "froze" a side of my mouth and it didn't hurt at all. I'll tell you though, that it did feel unusual. Now its the pain after the procedure that will get to you.

Be sure not to go to the doctors. It's so boring just sitting in a chair and having nasty stuff stuck in your mouth before they take em out. Do it the old fashioned way: Door-slamming

Well i had mine pulled out buy an oral surgeon and i must say there was no pain involved. I was sedated and put to sleep, woke up about an hour later and felt nothing. The proceeded to give me Painkillers and i was drugged for about a week. I had no pain and after about a week i was just fine. Eating normal foods and such. Just make sure you trust your dentist/doctor and go in with good thoughts.

had mine done a few years ago. it was surprisingly easy.. though my teeth had already erupted through the gums so there was no need to slice up my gums.. plus i had some sedatives which were fantastic :)

When I got mine out I had very little swelling and only a little pain, but I must warn you DO NOT WATCH AKIRA WHILE ON PAIN KILLERS! It's a trip you don't want to take.
