I am getting my wisdom teeth out soon and I am freaking out that I will be painful or that something will go wrong. Its kind of funny because I am the only one in my family who pulled out all of my teeth, they never fell it. Does it hurt? If I does how bad? |

I had all 4 of mine out at once, I kept myself on antiinflammatory meds for the first few days with a face ice pack to keep the swelling down, but I don't remember it ever hurting, I promise it's not as bad as it sounds |

I had all mine removed at once. I was only on pain meds for about a day or two and antibiotics for about a week (they found a small infection in my jaw when they had to chisle out one tooth that refused to come out). I wasn't in any pain, and was only loopy from being put under for about an hour or two after wards. It's not as bad as it sounds. The only thing is to remember to have someone drive you and pick you up. And I used a cool compress to help keep the swelling down and keep from looking like a chipmunk. |

To be entirely honest, I still need to get mine out too and am so scared. Crossing my fingers for you and wish you luck! |

It's not too bad! The anaesthesia was the worst for me, the teeth pulling doesn't really hurt at all. Just avoid straws, and go for smoothies and cold soft things (Wendy's frosties were the BEST). Make sure to flush the wounds regularly. But it's a routine surgery that tons of people go through every day, and complications are rare and minimal. The prospect of going into a surgery can be daunting, but it will be okay <3 |

As someone who has had abdominal surgery and many other medical procedures I can honestly say that getting my wisdom teeth out was the most positive experience out of all of them. Just keep on schedule with your pain meds and you will be fine! |

It was not bad at all. I was put under so I felt nothing, woke up and went home. I did not take the pain meds they prescribed, just ibuprofen and was not in any pain. The swelling is just annoying but it goes away. |

Drink lots of pineapple juice or eat a lot of pineapple the day before and for a day after, it will help with the swelling a lot! |
