I'd guess it goes without saying that more than 1 round was ordered (Note my ancestral make up is essentially all English and Scottish

)

I had all of my wisdom teeth extracted in early June, for which I was knocked out - the effects of the anesthesia wearing off were brutal. It was followed by a really tough two weeks of intense painkillers (Vicoden = an extremely cruel drug.) Turns out I gained a few pounds since I was on the couch for 14 days. The worst part is possibly the nasty-tasting piece of cloth-like material they put over the wounds. Every morning, I woke up feeling like I swallowed a mouthful of crap in the middle of the night, not to mention it hurts like hell when they get taken out. I was then left with small and relatively deep holes where the teeth were, which I have been rinsing after every meal for the last month.

But that's not the end. A few days ago, I started feeling soreness and swelling in my bottom right gum, right at the hole from the tooth (which is pretty much closed/healed by now, a month and a couple weeks later.) Went in to the Surgeon's this afternoon, and thank God I did. Turns out some food/debris was underneath the bubble that had begun to form. After three quick shots of Novacaine, the Surgeon ripped open the swelling gum and removed the crap inside, followed by a bunch of squirts of water. inside the newly-formed hole. This procedure was likely the most painful 15 minutes of my life, since I was actually awake for it. Had this not been done, however, legitimate infections could have formed. Since then, there hasn't been too much pain. Unfortunately though, I have to wear another one of those nasty cloth-coverups on the wound for the next week. Yay. Can't wait til next Wednesday when they rip it off.

Although I've certainly regretted it, especially this afternoon, it was for the best that I had it done. The teeth that wore braces for 4 years did not deserve to go crooked. And, since I'm still pretty young, it wasn't as bad as it would have been anywhere from 10-30 years from now. (Sorry for the ranting, but this was a bad experience for me.)

Sorry for your bad experience.

I was just joking though. I have no intentions of having my wisdom teeth removed, unless there's some sort of major problem. Heck I just had a cavity filled on one of them (my second cavity ever

) and still haven't paid for it, so I sure as heck am not going to remove them now.

Racking up some chips on the Wall Street roulette wheel. Staying outta the heat, I was up and around at 6AM watering the veggies and playing with the pups. The temp was already at a low simmer.

Ask them if you can get a free pass for speeding tickets. My wife had one once when she worked for the state and befriended one of the Staties. Just a business card with a note on the back.
