Wisdom Teeth are teh suck

Well, after being in pain for weeks I finally set up an appointment to get my wisdom teeth out on monday morning. I was given a prescription for something called Petridex rinse, which I found out is actually a Chlorhexidine solution. Thought it was kind of funny...the same stuff alot of you are using to clean your snake cages with, I'm using as a mouthwash (and it tastes like minty shampoo :puke2:)

Wish me luck!

lol @ the title!

hope ya feel bettras!

:cool:

Hopefully you'll get the happy gas for happy floaty times :D

Wisdom teeth aren't to bad. I had 6 of them taken out at once... I know... I'm weird. But good luck to ya! :salute:

Beware of the dreaded dry-socket.

I had mine pulled and was literally eating at Outback Steakhouse the next day. :D I had no problems at all with mine being pulled.
My fiancee was pissed as hell because she had tons of problems with hers...bleeding, pain, dry-socket, more bleeding.

6? I thought you could only have 4 max?

Anyways I had 4 taken out before they even broke the skin as a preventative measure. Didnt feel a thing just felt pressure during the extractions. I looked like a chipmunk for a week though afterwards, be prepared for swelling.

Oh ow- that sucks! I got mine out when I was 13- but mine were surgically removed, because my jaw was broke before- and becuase of that half of it isn't even real bone- and they didn't want to take the chane of re-breaking it. But hey- good luck, and be glad their just pulling them!!

Yeah, I definitely had 6 and the dentist my mom works for both of his sons had 6 as well. Nuts right?

wow, never heard of that happening :weirdface:
mine weren't too bad, but everybody is different. mine were one of the "better" kinds to get out, and i was fine after the stitches got taken out
