does takine out wisdom teeth hurt more than taking out normal teeth? probably not
I've had at least 4 teeth taken out with a ton of shots in the gums
i think you guys are exaggerating |
Before i got my braces back in high school, i had to have 4 permanent teeth pulled. Dentist did them all in the same day, and while it was no picnic, the procedure and recovery werent as bad as i thought it would be.
Few years ago, I had to have my wisdom teeth pulled. 3 were impacted, one of which had to be broken apart so they could get it out. The sound of your tooth "crunching" inside your mouth is sickening, and for some reason, one side of my lower jaw took like 5 extra shots before it went numb. Then after the procedure was done, a few days later the swelling started going back up rather than down. Went back to dentist, and i had an infection (same area that they had to break the tooth), so they had to put in some kind of drainage tube. worst part was i was to start leave the next day to go see my girlfriend and i almost had to cancel it because of the infection, but luckily they called another military base in washington, and were able to have a dentist see me to make sure the infection was taken care of.
