A few days ago I started experiencing extreme pain near my bottom and top set of wisdom teeth. It's so unbearable that I'm unable to eat solid food, everything is swollen and there's a foul ass odor coming from them. In 2017 I got a dental x-ray and they told me that all my wisdoms were severely impacted and I had to get them all removed. I didn't have the money at the time, and now I've scheduled an appointment Tuesday for a surgery consultation. Have you had your wisdoms pulled before? Were you sedated? I'm scared as f*** because I don't want the infection to spread before my appointment!

sounds like an abscess

i had mine taken out a few months ago... no sedation

S*** I couldn't do that I made sure I found a place that would put me under. I have these giant ass lumps near each of my wisdom teeth so I'm expecting this to be painful as hell.

Got all 4 taken out

Remember sitting in the chair. They were putting me out.

Thought s*** this stuff isn’t working, give me more. I said give me more. Next thing I know I’m in the car getting driven away by my mom

That s*** ain’t no joke

Took pain killers for a day, then instantly got off those the next day. Ate soft foods for a week. Was fine

I keep refreshing doordash and ubereats looking for soups bro, I just got some mashed potatoes and lobster bisque. The f***ed up thing is my insurance only starts January 1st so I hope theyll give me antibiotics or something before my surgery.

Don’t do it

yeah i was sedated, took a minute to hit

i got all 3 of my wisdom teeth removed cause they said it was going to mess up my straight teeth

When I was 16 I got all 4 out. Annoying until you're allowed to flush your gums

Was it that IV sedation s*** or just that conscious sedation with a pill? I hope they give me the iv s***

this a lowkey flex thread

eating lobster

For me they gave me the IV s*** . S*** kinda crazy lol I can’t describe it you just pass out

It's IV

Im afraid Im gonna say some wild s*** while they have me under. Damn. Im 29 I thought once I passed 25 I was good to go as far as my wisdoms were concerned

Most lobster bisque is just pureed langostino that fake ass lobster

Had all mine taken out and it lead to a bunch of weird health issues growing up mainly from an infection from the wisdom tooth areas. So imagine being infected for years and not knowing. Had to get a cavitation where they split your gums to clean your jaws. Getting your wisdom teeth pulled is one of the most pointless things to do that will ruin your health down the road

Damn now thats a horror story. I’ll do whatever I can to get this pain to stop tbh

mine didn't even come in till i was like 24

at first they thought i didn't even have any lol

Bro I’m 29 once I passed 25 I thought I would never have to deal with this s***

i've heard of people having to get them out when they are 30-50 cause they cause issues and it's even worse the longer you wait cause they are way more embedded

probably good you are getting it done in your 20s even if it's late

Yeah facts this whole ordeal makes me want to take my dental health way more seriously. In 2017 they told me I had cavities on every single one of my teeth and I havent done s*** about that either lol

Had all 4 removed about 2 years ago. Them s***s were overcrowding my mouth and making it VERY uncomfortable. At the same time, I also had 3 other teeth were removed that were broken; when I was a kid someone slung a ball bearing at my face and broke a bunch of my back teeth

They 'sedated' me with clonazepam via IV, but benzos do almost nothing for me. As long as they numb the s*** right, you won't feel anything anyways. The worst part of it is the ugly cracking sounds you'll hear when they're pulling them s***s.

Overall it's a massive relief, and there is far less pressure from overcrowding in my mouth now. You'll have large gaps where the teeth were pulled for a while, and you might have to take some antibiotics and pain medication after, but it wasn't really that bad of an experience for me.

yeah def worth taking care of your teeth

when i was younger i had a few years i didn't take good care of them and it def costed me way more money than just going yearly for a cleaning and flossing/brushing well

it's crazy how your teeth actually give you awful head aches and pain other places if there is something wrong

i had all four taken out when i was like 17

had em knock me out cuz hell no imma be awake for that s***

I cant lie I was to be addicted to opiates 4 years ago and Ive been clean since. I hear and see these stories of people that know they have an addiction background and heroically decide not to take any painkillers ror their surgery. But f*** that s*** I can’t rawdog pain like that.

bro you are looking at 5 figure dental bills in your 30s and 40s if you don't take care of this s*** asap

it's so easy to brush and floss at least once a day and get fillings done when needed.

c'mon dawg your body isn't a rental, stop treating it like that
