Getting teeth pulled

[-King-]

I just got my wisdom teeth pulled(all 4) and I was just wondering if anyone has done it before and if anyone has any advice. Right now, I'm just bleeding like hell no matter what. I tried drinking water, but my mouth is numb so it just ends up spilling on the floor. I haven't even tried to eat. So...any advice? Tips? Jokes to cheer me up?

Hey, I wouldn't mind it. They're the lemon tea bags so the taste is not bad.

I'm sure you've been given dissolveable stitches. They literally stay in until your wounds heal.

All this teabag talk makes me miss Prison Break.

Dry Socket was a bitch.

Most pain I have EVER had to endure.

Had I know THEN what I know NOW I would have done one side of my mouth at a time. At least then I could have ATE something more than really soft pasta or soup for a week. With both sides at once and BOTH sides with dry socket I was F***ed eating anything for a few days and nothing but soft crap for OVER a week.

AND that clove oil soaked cloth they shoved into each socked every flipping day to ease the dry socket tasted like ASS too.

The worse pain I ever had was about 6-7 years ago. Salina had a free dental clinic. I waited forever in line then finally they looked at my teeth and put me in the emergancy line. They proceeded to extract 6 teeth. It took three docters to pull out one of them and they left chips inside. PAIN!!! My mouth swollen. Couldn't talk. They gave me some drugs, but that didn't last long. I had to go to work that following monday. I was a route driver for a uniform company. By wensday nite I went to the emergancy room in so much pain. My headache was excrutinating. They had to pull the rest of the chip out and give me more drugs. I slept all day thursday then friday I started to feal better. OMG the Pain.

Hope you don't end up like I did.

They didn't put you under?

I got the IV sedation so I didn't feel a thing.
