[QUOTE=matt54;23659612]That is false, I am 21 years old. Got some dental done the other week. Asked the dentist if i will get wisdom teeth. He said i am one of the lucky 2% of humans in the world that don't have them.[/QUOTE]
Lucky bastard
Got all four of mine pulled.
The initial surgery didn't hurt one bit because they numbed the area pretty well.
But, I had to watch them cut and yank and all that shit in my mouth.
BLOOD EVERYWHERE.
The day after however, JESUS FUCKING CHRIST I've never felt so much pain my life, luckily they gave me a nice big bottle of Vicodin.
Got to chill at home high all day and then I sold that shit at school and got some quick cash.
[QUOTE=Warriorx4;23657346]Nope, the reason most people need them removed is because the direction they grow out impacts with your molars. If they don't do that, you're in the clear.[/QUOTE]
I was told it was since they grew so slowly that they rotted before you could do anything
[QUOTE=The_Marine;23663918]quiok[/QUOTE]How could you mix up O and C
An attractive young woman will put you at ease with idle banter and will generously offer to let you use her iPod to listen to Christian Rap. Do not accept! This is all a trick meant to distract you from the fact that a brusquely mannered dentist will be entering shortly to devastate your mouth! Once he has strapped you down, the kindly young nurse will turn off the charm (and why not? It's already too late for you to flee).
It's not until the dentist pulls out his wide array of wicked-looking hooks, knives, needles, and reverse-bear-trap-Saw-contraptions that you will notice his nose is questionably reddened, and the unseasonably cold whether should stand as evidence that the cause is not sunburn, and that he smells of bad aftershave and regret.
He will ram several-inch-long needles into sixteen different parts of your gumline (four shots per tooth), and your mouth will shortly become alien to you. At this point, you'll decide that you've made a horrible mistake. You'll try to tell the dentist that you've changed your mind and would like to keep your teeth, but what comes out instead of words will be vast quantities of drool and senseless sounds akin to the mating noises of sea turtles. The dentist will pretend that he doesn't understand you, and exaggeratedly shrug his shoulders and cup his ear with a big, shit-eating grin on his face.
Using a device resembling a car jack, he'll forcibly open your mouth and get to work with the scalpel, pliers, hooks, and tiny crowbars. You're not likely to feel much of anything, but the horrible grindy-crunchy-splatty noises that resonate inside your skull as he cuts, hammers, wrenches, and splits your teeth free from the tortured flesh of your gums will haunt for you the rest of your life.
As he operates, the dentist is likely to offer demoralizing quips such as, [i]I've never had to excise so much flesh just to remove a tooth[/i], or [i]This is gonna hurt like a bitch once the Novocain wears off[/i], and the ever-popular [i]Whoops.[/i]
You won't be able to see what's going on during this procedure, but the opaque suction tube should at least provide a chillingly graphic view of the chunky, soup-like mess which remains of your mouth as its sucked out. Once all the teeth are removed, a lifetime later, the doctor will suture your wounds, shove a bunch of gauze over the still-bleeding holes, and give you some vague instructions on how to prevent them from rotting over the several months it will take to completely heal.
As you leave, you'll embarrass yourself by drooling blood all over your shirt, the floor, the person in front of you, and your pharmaceutical forms. For the next four hours you'll be able to say little more than "oh gah oh heejush why?!" and "i shorry for rooling on you shir."
At least, this is how it was for me.
man you're lucky! I had to have 10 teeth taken out once when I was 7!
The only part you should worry about is the injection (unless of course your getting gassed instead) & the recovery
& when you're out cold, it just feel like 5 seconds have passed before you wake up
I never had wisdom tooth problems, my dentist said to me they grew in but for some odd reason they grew in quite fine.
Should've asked for a complete IV knockout, BDA.

Wait, they let some people get gassed?
...What the fuck?
:saddowns:
The only time I ever had to go to the dentist though was when I had to get 2 cavities filled. Unfortunately it was silver fillings so I guess that's a lesson I had to learn for not brushing my teeth when I was a little kid.

Well so much for the auto merge.
Dont worry about the procedure worry about the after effects,it hurts alot I know I had it done before.
Well, If you guys care I got it done today, and was no where near how the fuck I thought it would be, Pain sucks and one "hole" wont stop fucking bleeding so im biting on gauze.
Was great how I passed out, they Put the IV in, and they asked what my bracelet was for ( a friend who passed away) and after I said her name I woke up in a really comfortable chair texting people gibberish....
My wisdom teeth are growing perfectly
:smug:
People say that you shouldn't be scared. But if you expect it to be horrifying, then after it's all over you'll be happy it wasn't how you expected it to be, right Angry man?

I was very happy. I went in expecting I wasnt going to wake up.
soo I might have been overdoing it a little bit.
:D
I do that sometimes. I get myself worked up over things that are about to happen (sometimes purposefully), and I'm happy with the results.

aye, well Im a Hypochondriac, whos afraid of needles but is under apprenticeship of a tattoo artist :D so im gonna have to get over my fear.
Just hope you don't become conscious while under the IV. It's a possibility during surgeries and you feel all the pain but you can't move or talk
:smug:

Nope, I didnt. I'm all good.

My friend have also have his wisdoms teeth removed.
It was a pain, but rather that, than having chewing problem. Witch of course hurts...
What is with people and getting knocked out for the procedure? Man up. I had Novocaine for three of my teeth being taken out, it wore off before they did the fourth so that was all feeling. I felt my neckbeard growing furiously.
I got all four. Didn't hurt much but oh man BLOOD. Lots of blood.

Wisdom tooth removal are more painful than normal tooth removal.

and pudding:D
I once chipped one of my molars while riding my dirtbike and had to get a root canal.
I refused to take the gas, due to a particular Metalocalypse episode where Pickles (Or Murderface, I can't remember.) told Nathan about how the dentist plays with your dick while you're out.

It honestly wasn't that bad. I'd had my teeth drilled several times before due to cavities.
Hope yours goes well.
i had all 4 of mine done in the Hospital under General anesthetic, my 3rd time having surgery it was really easy you go into a operating room get hooked up to all the monitors and a IV. They told me to count down from 10 i started to feel weird and 5 seconds later i woke up in the recovery room my mouth was frozen and a nurse was saying hello and the heart monitor beeping behind me.
I went into the hospital at 9 AM and left at about 3 the whole surgery took about
i think having it done this way is the easiest and the best way.
As for the pain, the surgeon said even though i was asleep it would still be frozen so i was frozen all day long. but the painkillers kept it down for the week and really do not believe those stories it was the easiest of the 3 operations i have had.
Sorry man, I wish you luck. I hate having my wisdom teeth pulled. I got all 4 of them out at the same time last year.
