Well, it was actually to have my last wisdom tooth removed, but my face is so sore and swollen now. The tooth was on its side so I had to lie there for an hour and a half as the dentist cut it into pieces and then wrenched each piece out with a variety of tools. I thought my jaw was going to be broken by the end of it.
The assistant was kinda leaning against my body the whole time which was pretty good cause she was hot. I'd rather die than go through that again though.

Money well spent

[Messypandas]

i would have done if for nothing

[3N16MA]

I would have done it for $10 American History X style.

[Dreams-Visions]

I think I'll leave my wisdoms in. They don't bother me and probably never will.

[fuzzyreactor]

General Anesthesia FTW

But you get greeaaaat painkillers

[Liquidsnake]

I thought I was entering an S&M thread.

[Quick]

I was knocked out when the dentist took mine. No fuss.

[Dicer]

I've had all 4 out, the last two were the damned size of tree trunks, and I got dry socket.


Fuck Wisdom teeth, we should have evolved past them by now...

[Zoe]

General Anesthesia FTW

This so much.

isnt the whole wisdom teeth thing something fabricated by dentists anyways? i coulda sworn i read an article on gaf about that

[PhoenixPause]

No smoking or spitting for awhile bro, you do not want a dry socket. Especially on a weekend when no one is open

GAF, never change.

Thats what i thought until the tooth next to the wisdom tooth got a huge cavity in the side if it cause it was too hard to clean between them back there

[aFIGurANT]

Don't smoke or anything or the dry socket and treatment will be approx. 5x as bad as what you went through. They'll have to flush liquid straight into the hole and just totally hose down the nerves in the process, which usually is just really really painful and doesn't warrant any onsite medication. So yeah be careful that you keep it moist in there man!!

Damn beat me to it.

There are definitely cases where you want them removed, like if they're going in sideways.

Now, some surgeons will advocate removing all four at once rather than doing only the problem ones and then having to go back later if the others become problematic.

Did she do the good old press against the face thing?

[windowlurker]

Hate when I get a boner at the dentist.

She sees it clearly, and I start blushing.

I have the weirdest boner right now.

Tell her there is only one way to get rid of it.

[Dynamite Shikoku]

Nah but she leaned over my crotch.

[fuzzyreactor]

GAF, never change.

lol, reminds me of the last time i got a filling. The assistance was smoking hot and was using the air straw while the dentist was working. she was like 4 inches from my face the whole time.....i stared into her eyes passionately throughout the whole thing. I swear she was staring back too.

[spindashing]

Nah but she leaned over my crotch.

[pestul]

Left all mine in and things are good at 31yrs old. They slightly displaced my last molars. One dentist years ago advised me to get them removed, then I moved to another place and this dentist suggested just leavin' them..

[Hey You]

Damn, I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled this summer :(

[windowlurker]

Tell her there is only one way to get rid of it.

My dentist is total MILF too who also acts as my therapist.

[SmithnCo]

Them having your mouth pried open is the worst, worse than them cutting up your teeth for an hour. Besides the constant slobbering afterwards, of course.

[roodiculous]

Had to take one out last year, it was causing a great deal of pain. They charged me 700 for mine. I think the price knocked me out before the anesthesia.

[Glass Rebel]

20€, 20mins, no swelling, ate the next day normally.

[Thaedolus]

When I got mine out they put me under. WTF would they keep you awake for?

Note: I had all four out at once and they were impacted.

[Osietra]

The tooth hurts, but consider when you're under, that friendly dentist could be giving you a serious anal rooting.

[Liquidsnake]

Ill say this, I got all four pulled at the same time. It was 7 days of hell.

[Arment]

Tell that to the excruciating pain I experienced for a year until the day they were removed via sleep surgery.

[Vilam]

I don't understand why anyone would get their wisdom teeth out and not demand to be fully knocked out for the procedure. Fuck being awake through that.

[dimb]

Who doesn't get put under when they get their wisdom teeth pulled in this day and age?

[Dynamite Shikoku]

If i wanted to be put under i would have had to have gone to an oral surgeon, which would have cost quite a bit more. I would probably have done it looking back now if i knew how long and uncomfortable the procedure was going to be.

[SmithnCo]

Who doesn't get put under when they get their wisdom teeth pulled in this day and age?

They gave me the option, but I didn't because it cost more.

[Lactose_Intolerant]

I was just knocked out when they took the 4 out. Was soar for a day or 2 but that was it.

[ClassyPenguin]

Who doesn't get put under when they get their wisdom teeth pulled in this day and age?

Me, except for one which I did take out, I had a local . The rest were coming in fine so why bother?

[Poyunch]

I just got numbed. It was pretty trippy feeling the sensation of vibration as they sawed my teeth.

[Rehynn]

$450? Holy shit. The same operation costs about $50-100 where I live.

[Pupi18]

I was eating chinese rice the same day I got out without any problems. Next day Doritos and fried chicken. All perfect ^_^

[fuzzyreactor]

$450? Holy shit. The same operation costs about $50-100 where I live.

mine cost around $2000

:(

[Forsaken82]

With the anesthetic its like 500 per tooth. At least that was how much it was when I got quotes for it... I had some inflammation a while back but its gone away since... i really want to get them out though just to be done with it. Last thing I want is to be forced to remove the wisdom teeth anyways because cavities formed in my back teeth and i end up losing more than just the wisdom teeth. I need my back teeth for steaks!

[SMT]

After the first time I had this done, I woke up with a broken jaw, and later learned I had developed TMJ. YAY for competent dentistry! The assistant was also hot.

$450 is incredibly cheap, try $1,500, and I didn't get a happy ending.

[B-Dex]

I've had all 4 out, the last two were the damned size of tree trunks, and I got dry socket. Fuck Wisdom teeth, we should have evolved past them by now...

I have evolved. I only have 2 and they don't need to be removed.

[Ace Harding]

No general anesthesia? Fuck that. I got Fentanyl when mine were removed. It was pretty awesome. I was pretty much awake the whole time but did not give a fuck what was happening to me. Then to the drug store for 30 percocets, refilled a week later when the holes started to get infected which was some of the most excruciating pain I've experienced. I had to rinse them out and pack them a couple times a day. I nearly cried every time. That part sucked.

[Rehynn]

mine cost around $2000 :(

Surely you can't be serious...

With the anesthetic its like 500 per tooth.

If you have insurance (which I understand is also ridiculously expensive)? That's just insane, no wonder so many people are uspet about your healthcare system.

Seriously guys, book plane tickets to Hungary, I'll take you out to eat, then we'll go and have all your wisdom teeth removed. The whole thing will cost you less than $3000 (travel expenses + 4 extractions, dinner's on me). I actually used to have family in the US who would fly home just to get their teeth done. Our dentists are great too!
