i had to pay the same for mine, it was for all 4, I went under when they did it, was fine afterwards, id thought it be alot worse actually. maybe 3 days max you'll fully recover and be able to chew like you did before./

I don't have to get my wisdom teeth pulled ever.

My teeth are spaced so oddly apart that my wisdom teeth will push them into correct allignment.

I had braces for like, 2 years ... so when the fuckers wanted to start coming out, they had to remove them. I watched so many good movies that week! Pi, Cube, Searching for Bobby Fischer, etc...

Man, I ate like a ton of pudding and soup. biggrin:

Oh yeah, codeine is your friend.

You don't play any wind instruments so you should be just fine in a few days. I had a few trumpet buds that got them out and couldn't play for a week, which sucks (Lip muscles go into recession).

Oatmeal is pretty good. Go stock up on that.

No personal attacks please Coleman! calmdown:

I had 3 wisdom teeth extracted a couple of years ago. It really wasn't too long a recovery time. Maybe a week before the small amount of swelling I had went down.

I was under general anaesthetic for the procedure. Wheeee!

The worst part is when the stitches start coming out and they drag down your throat and make you gag even through nothing is there.
