Owww! Sorry about the tag, but yeah, I bet it didn't hurt much after the meds you were taking for the tooth.


As for the other question, I still have all 4 of mine and as long as they stay healthy, I can keep 'em, but I have to be VERY diligent on cleaning or they could get impacted and have to be taken out. I've had them since I was 16, and so far the only one in my family to have them still in my jaw. ha ha ha
