Having my wisdom teeth pulled?
I was just wondering how bad it hurts to have your wisdom teeth pulled. I will be getting all four pulled and will be put to sleep for it. I have never had a tooth pulled, let alone four and I have never been put to sleep before. I was just wondering what to expect, since I'm not a fan of the dentist(or orthopedic surgeon) and I'm pretty terrified just thinking about it!
I haven't made the appointment yet, but I'll probably be getting it done in the next month...
Having my wisdom teeth pulled?
Well, it depends on whether or not they are impacted or not. Have the emerged from the gum or will they have to be surgically removed? I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed when I was 18. Two had emerged, two were impacted. The impacted ones were lying horizontal in the back of my jaw and creating terrible headaches and would have never come in properly, which is why I had to have them removed.
So, I was put to sleep and had to have stitches. Honestly, it was quite painful, but I had good pain medications. Once it healed, I was much better off because I no longer had daily pain from my teeth.
If they have all emerged, it won't be as complicated. Either way your oral surgeon will give you pain medication to help you manage afterwards.
If you have to have them removed, there is a good reason for it. Don't be terrified! Good luck!
