Wisdom teeth?

Im getting my wisdom teeth removed pretty soon. I was just wandering what to expect after the surgery. I already know it will hurt and have to eat jello and stuff. I just want to know about how long it last and how long before I can eat again and such. What kind of pain should i expect? Anything like that would be great to know.

Wisdom teeth?
Mine lasted about a week, but I didnt take the meds they gave me, only because I didnt want to vomit on top of the pain. There were only a few times I was like pacing in pain, its just like a really bad headache becasue they literally crack the tooth in half and remove it. Are you getting all 4 out? Impacted? Mine were partially out of the gumline. I was put to sleep. It wasnt as bad as I thought it would be. I am such a baby when it comes to the dentist and anything like that so me doing it, shows anyone can. I ate frosting just for the sugar to make my blood sugar go up. No straws! It sucks cause your face is numb the first day too. Just sleep a lot :) And be careful with the meds they give you. they are often too strong and a lot of people do get sick on them, I just took a bunch of ibuprofen and I was ok. But fill it just in case youre in really bad pain. Good luck! its not that bad!
Reply:oh god!!! you brought up some very, very, very painful memories...
Reply:The pain is different for everyone. I had a lot of pain because 3 out of 4 of my teeth were impacted still and they had to cut them out. I didnt eat any dairy products because you dont want a yeast infection in your mouth and tried to eat food that wasnt too cold because that hurt also. Mashed potatoes were good for me. My pain lasted for about 2 weeks before i felt a lot better. I suggest a lot of water drinking, rest and PAIN PILLS. good luck!
Reply:keep your head above your heart at all times, NO EATING NUTS!!!!! drik delicious smoothies, and remember it is for the best. If they are not removed, all of your teeth will be moved forward. (p.s., ask to be asleep, not awake when they take them out. you'll recover faster.)
Reply:All 3 of my kids have had theirs out... USE YOUR ICE BAGS!! They tell you to put ice on both sides of your face for the first 24 hours, that really helps keep the swelling down and keeps the pain down. 30 minutes on, 30 minutes off all day!





Take your pain pills on time, don't wait until you're actually in pain, then they don't work as well. If you do that for the first 24 hours, you'll feel much better from not having a lot of swelling and pain. They were pretty much back to normal after 4 days. Good luck!
Reply:like 4 weeks
Reply:Both of my teenage girls had them surgically cut out. Other than the typical swelling the pain was minor. They went out that night. Just had to be careful what to eat. Soft foods only till it heals. They napped out the anestisia, and was good to go by that evening.
Reply:I got my wisdome teeth removed a year ago, and honestly it is not that bad at all. They gave me vicodine for the pain, which I didn't need at all because there was virtually no pain. I was eating normal food after 3 days, except I was chewing with my front teeth so I didn't start bleeding where my teeth had been.





In my life I have had 8 teeth removed. 4 before I got my braces when I was 15, and all 4 wisdom teeth. And honestly, none of it was that bad.





So don't worry, it's not as bad as some people make it sound.
Reply:HI, first I just want to say you don't have to be asleep when you get them done! I had two cut out and two pulled, the two that had to be cut out were growing in side ways and I wasn't asleep! I didn't feel any pain JUST TAKE THE MEDS ON TIME DON'T wait for the pain to start and keep the ice on as directed it REALLY does help!!!! I was back to normal in three days!! Don't eat the first 24 hours and when you do eat try to keep it in the front of your mouth and check your holes when your done eating. (You can use a tooth pick to get the stuff out) Be sure to check them you don't want to get a dry socket. Don't expect alot of pain like I said I didn't have any but I did what I was told! Good Luck and I hope this helps! It really isn't that bad!
