Do you guys have dental insurance or did you pay cash. Is it possible to take 'em out yourself?
how bad is it getting your wisdom teeth pulled???

I have to get mine removed soon. I had one erupt through the gum a couple of weeks back. Worst pain I have ever felt...my god. I wanted to just die.
Luckily once it broke through the gum, the pain and swelling ended but I have to get all 4 of them removed.

For those who have it growing in, you have absolutely no idea how it's going to be positioned. Yes, they can possibly damage your other teeth / cause them to move, which will cost even more down the line to fix.
Just get them removed. Peace of mind is priceless.

Get some morphine, a table, and pliers....but I wouldn't recommend the back ally dentist approach.

I had all 4 of mine taken out in one shot. The whole surgery only took 20-30 mins. I was put under and didn't feel a thing. Worse part was my gums bleeding all day and not being able to eat for about 4-5 days.

I'm only had 2. I will not be getting 2 more Dentist said.
I took them out a month ago. No pain. Just got numb and out in about 20 min and went on with my day. Took ibuprofen one time which was 2 hrs after surgery before the Anastasia wore off and that's it.

I had all four of my wisdom teeth pulled seven years ago before my junior year of college started. The pain was excruciating after the operation, and it took me a full week to recover from it. My gums bled for the first two days, and opening my jaw hurt, even as I tried opening it a quarter of the way. I was put on a liquid diet and took ibuprofen to relieve the pain. As far as the gauze is concerned, I had to replace it every 4-5 hours.
I still feel an uneven crunch as I clench my teeth today as a result of the operation.

didn't hurt, except the part where he stuck the needle inside my gums. Wasn't as bad as when I was 12 and had to have eight needle shots in order to remove four teeth prior to getting braces.

Not bad. Worst part is the recovery process. Gotta be careful what you eat and you can't excercise. I just had a local anesthetic. I went twice (left side and right side) 3 mths apart. I got the procedure during my lunch break and went to work right after as well.

yea its not bad at all....the worst part is that noise when they yank it out :x
the first one i got pulled i was real cautious. waited like 3 days.
second time after i knew what was up ate regular food the next day.
the stories about the dry socket are crazy tho.

Man...
You don't even know
Especially when the tooth would "jump" as it was trying to make space :xThat pain drove me to tear up famb, and I'm not a cryer.
That was 7 years ago, and I can still feel it, I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.
