Has anyone had or are going to have their wisdom teeth removed?
-
i think i can feel em coming out :/
-
a lot of ppl get them removed if they grow the wrong way or they just hurt you
-
Yep, it was terrible
-
OUCH no. i like my teeth nomatter how much they would hurt, plus.. my parents gave them to me :coolsmiley:
-
it looks very painful, iv seen photos of people who had them taken out
their faces swell sooo much!
-

my mumm blames me for not having straight teeth b/c whenn i was small i didn't wanna pull my falling tooth out and so the new one grew behind it and now she says that i have to waste $4000 on getting braces when i could have pulled out my teeth when i was small and saved that money =.=

Ahaha, that's exactly what happened with me. Except now they're straight because I've worn my braces but I'm starting to get lazy with my retainer...

other then that it seems weird for old (as in old) ppl to wear braces :) so i'm thinking invasiglns whcih r more expensive
appraently braces means pulling out the back of my teeth >< NOOOOOOOOOOO!
-
->
this direction, is how my widom teeth look like, i saw it from an X-ray graph. otherwise i would have thought its going to come out.
and normally it shud be like this ^
Wonder whether this is whats happening to every one else's teeth.
-
I had my braces taken off a month ago weee~ It's so good :) But apparently I have to have my wisdom teeth taken out next year :|
I googled "Wisdom teeth extraction" and I don't think i should have.....

off with your TOOTH! (too bad) :(

My mate got his down a year ago, took him about 4-5 days to recover and he was fine. No complaints, no major pain. Depends where you go I guess.
-
My orthodontist already took an x-ray and he said that it's definitely going to be removed. I'm seeing a maxillofacial surgeon in May about it but I can already feel pain on the gumline of my wisdom teeth.
Oh I wish May would come faster now.

I did that too and... Oh Sh-... Yeah?

Do they put you to sleep when they remove the wisdom tooth out?

Apparently they use anaesthetics but you're still awake. You just feel numb, just like how a dentist pulls out a tooth.
Well that's what Google told me anyway.
-
My dentist told me I don't have any wisdom teeth.
-
one of mine has grown out completely ... and i just keep it there... doesn't hurt me..for now
-
ur awake through out, my mate said he didnt feel a thing.
-
they say smart ppl tend to have their wisdom teeth grown out completely
-
thats right bitches!
lol
-
For those of you who have had your wisdom teeth removed, does Bridgeman sound familiar?
-
^ i knew someone who got their wisdom teeth out and they went under general. as in their pretty much passed out and work up and it was gone.
a friend of mine's two brothers had them both removed, they both were vomiting blood throughout and told how it was the worst/most painful experiences of their life. so scared, i have to get mine out soon (hopefully in over a year).
goodluck LOL

What a great way to get me pumped up for this.
-

What about the days after it's extracted?
Hopefully nothing happens with my wisdom teeth. Also I wonder if one day they will have it optional to remove your appendix when you are a baby so you don't have to worry about appendicitis!
-
I had four wisdom teeth out (apparently mine had to be cut out from my jaw) and I was under a general. Minor pain, major swelling for a few days but that was it.

the days after you just are doped up on painkillers and just have to deal..
yeah we don't even need an appendix, so true it's better without one in case of disease, but imagine removing organs on every small child haha :|
-

Yeah, same with me. probably just wear them once a month now.
I used to bite my cheeks to avoid lauging during inappropriate times and I suspect that as being the cause for needing braces somehow. now, i need to get my wisdom teeth removed, hopefully after yr 12 though, don't want it impacting on my vce.

I guess I will have to remove my wisdom tooth with my own bare hands...

Well, if the wisdom tooth is ingrown... I really don't wanna think about it.

If the Tom Hanks in Castaway can remove his tooth with ice skates, then I can...

Summarised in 3 words: your worst nightmare.
Otherwise, if Wikipedia is your good friend, hi.
-
lol ok now i dont wanna know

Just remember though, if you start feeling some pain at the back of all your teeth, it's probably a very good time to see a dentist and get an x-ray.

Agreed. And another 3 words: human evolution phayl.

I think I was lucky -
At the moment I've only gotten one of my wisdom teeth out - the operation/appointment took 20 or so minutes at the local dentist clinic. I was awake but numb and I could hear the crack when my dentist pushed it out :P
I did feel a bit faint for 15 minutes after for about 5 minutes but apart from that I was fine. Even after the numbing wore off all that was annoying me was that feeling you get when you lose a tooth, hard to explain but there was no pain.
-
My dentist told me I don't have any wisdom teeth.
LUCKY! I thought I wouldn't have any because my mum hasn't had hers yet... but I guess not :(
-
The only good thing that I read about getting wisdom teeth out (besides it being a pain in later life) is that there is the least complications when you get it done when you're younger. So I guess that's a pro, and I'm glad mine won't affect my VCE if I'm going to get mine out next year :P

That's disgusting!
So they are taken out 'usually' between 17 - 25 years of age.

The younger the better they say. When you're young, they say the healing process is easier and quickier.
-
Mine have fully grown and my dentist told me that i'm lucky cause i don't need to get them removed :)
-
When I got mine out, either the anaesthetic was just water or she just didn't know how to inject it, but I got 4 shots and it did next to nothing and I could feel almost everything.
Go general anaesthetic if you can...
-
I went under general, and was confronted with a supermassive black needle which was poked into my mouth numerous times. Getting wisdom teeth removed really isn't that scary at all, though. I also got to inhale some sort of awesome gas before the operation >:D
And who can complain about getting to eat jelly and mousse for a week?
-
tl;dr
I went to the dentist a couple of years ago for a check-up, and before that I hadn't been to the dentist in about 7 years.
I had one tiny hole that was there 7 years ago, but was too small to do anything about... the filing fell out the next day anyway.
The dentist also said that I had all my wisdom teeth... but I don't remember getting them... like, there was never any pain... :-S

She sounds competent... at least you come out with an arm missing or something.

i think my dentist said my wisdom teeth didnt need to come out...made me so happy, but then i needed to get like 4 other teeth out anyway due to overcrowding at the front of my mouth :(

why is it so common that we have to remove it anyway?...then why do we grow them...if we have to pull them out O_O

So we can be wise..?
*shrugs*
Not everyone needs them removed... like me... I had plenty of room (I actually have 33 teeth), so mine were happy to come through easily and painlessly.
I think this is a case where people only hear about the bad, and none of the good... people usually only talk about their teeth when they have a problem with them.
