Yeah i had the wisdom tooth removed the other day, because it was bothering me. My mouth apparently has absolutely no room for them to come in, so the dentist has to take them out one by one :( So the process was interesting. They froze my gum (right upper tooth) and then they made me wait for like 10 minutes for the freezing to set in. I felt a little bit of numbness, but didnt think it was gonna be enough. The dentist then came to "test his anesthesia" and started digging at my gum and i didnt feel a thing, so it was all good ;)
So he got the pliers out, started ripping and tearing and i heard cracking and MmmMMMMmmm it was so awesome! lol jk. It was alright, i can stomach that sorta thing, so it doesnt really bother me. Next thing i see is this big tooth coming out on a pair of pliers and the dentist said "suction please" cause apparently i was gushing like a mutha. He then said "yeaah, i made a pretty big hole in your gum, i'm gonna have to stitch you up pretty good" So he started stitching and of course the assistant had to get all the stitching tangled up in her tools so that didnt really help things.....but overall it was a positive experience :) I had to have a gauze in my mouth for a good 6 hours until i ran outa gauze, and i dont think it actually stopped bleeding until the day after, which apparently is normal. Its been a bit achy, i only had to take tylenol once because it was gettin pretty annoying. But anyway, thats about it.
Until next time......stay fit and HAVE FUN!
