Ok who's got any experience with pulling wisdom teeth (can't believe they're actually called like that), not pulling yourself but getting them pulled! Since 2 days I've got terrible pain on my 2 below wisdom teeth, my tongue is swollen wich makes it hard to answer the phone at work!
So...a visit to the dentist it is I guess, any nice stories???

Had mine done a few years ago, knocked me out, I woke up they gave me drugs, I had fun in lalaland, I woke up they gave me more drugs...went home a day later had a little pain but they gave me good drugs for that...so all in all not a bad experience, just as long as they give a lots a drugs I guess

Ahhhh wisdom teeth! I remember them fondly... NOT! I had two were impacted and two were through already and pushing my molars forward. The two that were through were on either side of my mouth, and they took turns tormenting me. One day, the right side would be so painful, I'd have to eat everything in little bites on the left side, then the next day it would be lefts turn for pain... so after about a month of this torture of not being able to eat on one side or the other of my mouth...
My Dentist would do it right then and there with Novocain... but I didn't want a little shop of horrors type episode. AND even though the two that were impacted were not hurting and the Dentist said they didn't need to come out yet, I wanted all four pulled in the same day. I didn't want to go through this sort of pain ever again!
He recommended me to a oral surgeon. I get there, they gassed me up, (which I highly recommend) and I woke up with gauze in my mouth and felt like I had drunk a case of beer & a fifth of Jack Daniels all while riding on a tilt-a-whirl. No pain, but then again, I never felt so drunk in my life...
I remember them pointing me to the waiting room (which turned into the never ending hallway) where my mom and my (then) girlfriend (now wife) dragged me to the car like I was a POW. I then got major motion sickness in my moms car, thankfully the dentist gave me a bag Laughing
I got lots of codeine (for the apparent pain I was supposed to feel), and about a week later I was back to normal... The pain of them being pulled out was a cake walk compared to the pain of them being in my mouth.
FINAL SUMMATION:
Go get them pulled by an Oran Surgeon while being put under. The insurance will pick up most, if not all of the tab. You get good drugs, and you benefit by not having to watch some guy leaning on your chest with a pair of pliers in your mouth. Or in the case of my two impacted teeth, (I later found out) they had to break them up into little bits and pull them out like shards of glass

I had four deeply impacted one that needed surgery to be removed. The drugs were good, I never had any pain.
Face this issue without fear.
