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)
Wish me luck!
