Well, it's the only time I have ever seen tears in my fathers eyes and it's the only time I've seen pain make him puke. Other than that, it's not so bad.

He waited too long and they had to break some of them to get them out.

I've had two out and it's pretty much like you imagine; a fairly strong man with pliers in your mouth, two handed, wrenching back and forth until they come free. Pressure, pressure, pressure...POP.

The worst for me was one of them, he left a shard and, because of the local, I didn't feel it. Turned inside of my cheek to hamburger and it got infected and swelled up like a golf ball was between my cheek and gum. Went back, he snapped the piece out with a typical doctor "Huh. Musta missed that piece..."

I've seen upside-down Wisdom Teeth in the Jaw-Bone of young People, and they need to be broken up to get them out. It doesn't matter how old, or young the person is. It's how the teeth grow, and if they are Impacted, that determine how they should be removed. Either way, it's no FUN getting them removed.

OK.

That's just what I was told; the 'ol 'it only gets worse if you wait' routine.

I had my first one yesterday and I put wet cotton balls in the sockets like I was advised by my brother. :cds:

If you are just going to give me a hard time you can go to hell... and put me on iggy like I told you to a couple weeks ago. :coffee:

You could have food impacted in the sockets! Here's what the Doctor will do. He/she will clean the area with Betadine, and will check for impaction of food. If it is a Dry Socket, he'll soak a strip of Gauze soaked in Eugenol, and he'll place it in the socket, and he might have you come back to repeat the above. If you have the curved Syringe, take some warm salt water, and GENTLY pulsate it in to the sockets to get food out. You can buy Eugenol at any Pharmacy too, use a eye dropper & place ONE drop in to each socket that you think is dry. It tastes yucky, but it does help IF you have dry socket. But let the Doctor determine what is going on first. Good luck!

smoking is not the only thing that causes dry socket

Very True! I've had a few teeth extracted, and I smoke, and have never gotten Dry-Socket. Drinking from a Straw, aggressive Swish-Rinsing, sucking on Candy, and probing your Tongue, or Fingers into the extraction sites can cause it.

i am not giving u a hard time...here is the thing somdfunguy asked everyone who has a problem with who and hes nothing but trouble. I have nothing against you i did say u complain sometimes and that was it. he needs to rot in hell ..he can't keep his mouth shut for anything and likes to cause trouble...he also has issues with you too i am not the only one. He just made me look like the bad gal which i am not.

I just said that u could have got them from smoking cause its the sucking in action which u aren't supposed to be doing surprised the doctor didn't tell you that he told me that and i am not even a smoker. did the doc tell you no drinking through a straw either (I was told that also and i don't drink anything but water out of a glass).

Good that you are going in to see him/her. Even though I am an Assistant to an Oral Surgeon I don't know it all. They will NOT do anything to you to cause any pain, so don't worry. He will check to see if there is an infection brewing too, and he just might send you packing with another RX of Antibiotic. Ask for the curved Syringe if you didn't already get one. Let us know what you find out. Take care..

edit: most folks seem too afraid that they might hurt someone's feelings or tick someone off for 'rocking the boat' or unfriending/blocking/etc someone else.
