Wisdom Teeth, Does it make adult men cry?
Tell them to put you out. Then you wont feel a thing or go through all the motions the dentist will have your head going trying to pull them out. You will be getting some medication afterward for the pain so just take that. It is not as bad as getting a root canal. Sometimes these wisdom teeth come right out, sometimes they break and they have to drill and break them, it all depends on what direction they are pointing and how well those bastards are rooted. Good luck.
Reply:I say sure take some drugs and i know sometimes you can even go see your dentist before and they can write you a prescription for the pain so you can take it right before they start the work. good luck!
Reply:make them give you a %26#039;halcion%26#039; pill , its just like a valum but better, that%26#039;s what I had. If your knocked out you wont feel a thing ! I literally blinked my eye and was out of a 20 min procedure ! ! it%26#039;s the pain afterwards that hurts , please make sure you keep the wound CLEAN !!!! because life will be a living hell if food gets stuck in there !
Reply:I had all four of mine pulled the same afternoon. I took a fair bit of codeine for about 36 hours following and slept a lot, but I certainly didn%26#039;t cry and was back on my feet after that.
Reply:No. The dentist will give you novocaine and you will not feel pain...just pressure. It does not take long, and will soon be over. Be brave. You can do it! Make sure you follow the dentist%26#039;s after care instructions.
Reply:Chances are that they are going to give you some drugs so DON%26#039;T take your own. As for pain...you probably won%26#039;t know anything till the next day as far as pain. They will also probably give you a scrip for pain killers. Just take them regularly and make sure and rinse your mouth out with antiseptic or whatever your dentist recommends until you heal up. Your cheeks may puff up, just use ice packs about 20 minutes at a time. Good luck...it%26#039;ll be over before you know it.
Reply:Yes. Don%26#039;t drink a lot the night before. Alcohol thins the blood and can make you bleed more. Just relax! If you give your dentist a call in the morning, he can probably prescribe a valium for you to take just before your visit to calm your nerves. Don%26#039;t take anything on your own, since the dentist will be giving you other drugs that may react in a nasty way with them! Nothing to really be scared of nowadays, anyway! The technology is so advanced the excruciating pain is virtually a thing of the past! Just follow his rules to care for the surgical site afterwards to prevent a dry socket.....now that%26#039;s painful! Good luck!
Reply:I%26#039;ve never heard of anyone having their wisdom teeth removed without being put under (anesthesia). I had mine out. I was put to sleep... and my mouth numbed... so.... it didnt hurt me one bit. Later my mouth hurt, and I had prescription pain medicine given to me by the dentist. And it made my teeth feel just fine. Nothing about the whole experience made me cry.
Reply:i dont think an extraction of the tooth is gonna hurt that much, as long as it isnt infected. it will most likely be sore for a few days afterwards. I think you%26#039;ll be ok without the drugs....just go in and stay relaxed and calm, it%26#039;ll be over before you know it...good luck
Reply:My two sons were each around 18 and had no problem with pain or swelling. Don%26#039;t listen to horror stories and old wives tales. It%26#039;s like when a woman is pregnant. Other women fill them up with bad news and tales of the agonies they went through during labor and delivery.





You%26#039;ll be just fine!
Reply:Hey, the procedure for wisdom teeth removal is painful. The worst part; however, is the days after the procedure. You may cry, or you may sleep. It all depends on the tolerance you have for pain. I would say that you probably wont cry as in boo hoo, but you may have tears from the major pains.





You definitely should NOT do drugs before your appointment. They thin your blood, and you will bleed excessively. They can also react with the solution injected into your gums as a numbing agent.





Hope this helps!
Reply:yeah I%26#039;ve got alot, feel free to contact me, i had mine done a few months ago, i was so scared, that they have to do in the operating room, and i was knocked out, it was HORRIBLE, pain full, if you didn%26#039;t take your drugs, don%26#039;t try and be a hero, it hurts, everyone knows it does, don%26#039;t try and do it without drugs, o and when they give you a thing that looks like a sock with ice in it, USE IT, it feels so good you have no idea, just don%26#039;t take it off, because the more you keep it on the next few days have less swelling, but honestly just contact me if you need anything, i also work in the pharmacy, so i can help you with the meds and what not, don%26#039;t hesitate
Reply:You%26#039;ve nothing to worry about. Most likely you will receive a topical anesthetic followed by an injected one (the topical so you don%26#039;t even feel the needle.) After that you won%26#039;t feel a thing and its actually somewhat dangerous because if you%26#039;re not careful and try to eat you can seriously damage your mouth by chewing it up (but you won%26#039;t be eating afterward)





Then, for the discomfort in the days following the procedure, you will be prescribed pain killers.





Good luck!
Reply:dood it dont hurt that bad. they give u drugs at the dentist. think of him as ur dealer lol no seriously theyl drug u up there. it wont hurt wen they do it bcuz ul b on some serious **** but afterwards itl just b sore and ul look like a chipmunk. it acutally hurts less than ppl say.
Reply:Mine didn%26#039;t hurt a bit. I%26#039;m not sure who is doing yours, if its your regular dentist, you may want to talk to him/her about getting some sedatives. I went to a specialist and was knocked out for the whole procedure, so I remember none of it. I did only have top ones, which I%26#039;ve heard are the easier ones to have removed, but I also think that it depends on the individual, the original setting of the teeth (ie, both of mine were sideways in my jaw) and how much surgical removal they actually have to do. Have fun and enjoy your recovery :) I liked the jello... yeah, lots of jello :)
Reply:no drugs... that may interfere with sedation
Reply:Don%26#039;t worry about it. I%26#039;m getting mine out in January and I%26#039;m not afraid. I%26#039;ve already had 7 teeth pulled over the years and they were all painless procedures. Any pain I had was afterward but they always gave me a prescription for Vicodin after so I just took the pills right away and it was fine. It%26#039;s more about feeling uncomfortable than actually suffering from pain. I have horrible anxiety that makes me afraid of the people more than the pain itself. Don%26#039;t drink or do drugs before the procedure since it may backfire on you and cause more bleeding. You are going to be fine. Everyone goes through this. There%26#039;s always someone out there who is more scared than you are and they make it through it.
Reply:I had mine out two months ago and I survived! Don%26#039;t take drugs as they will give you something there and you don%26#039;t want some toxic combo. I got a mild sedative to take an hour before the appointment and sedation when I got there. I wasn%26#039;t unconscious but I don%26#039;t remember a thing. They give you the same stuff that guys use for date rape (scary) It means that you will respond to directions like open your mouth wider but have no recollection of the experience. Afterward is weird when you can%26#039;t feel your face and then the pain kicks in when the local wears off. Take the painkillers they give you as soon as you are allowed to lessen the chance of feeling much pain. Eating is difficult but gets easier after a week. You%26#039;ll be dead sick of mashed potatoes and Jelly by then! After two weeks I had my first pizza and am totally healed with no probs now. I was freaking out prior to the op but it really wasn%26#039;t that bad. Recovery is pretty quick but make sure you follow all of their directions for aftercare. It feels like half your mouth is missing at first but you quickly get used to it. Stay away from things you have to suck on to avoid dry sockets (when the blood clot comes out and the nerves are exposed) apparently it is very painful. Good luck, you%26#039;ll be sweet.
Reply:The worst thing or time that is most painfull and confusing is when you wake up. its Like someone just hit you for no reason, the confusion of why the hell you can go from sleeping so soundly to AAaaaaaaa what the F*%#@!!!


But dont make me freak you out bud it all is ok when they give you tons of Pain Kiiilllllas, and eating lota Jello.


All the best
Reply:My step fathers a dentist, if you are in S GA ill give you his number, hes the only dentist I trust. Ok back to your question, DONT DO DRUGS BEFORE YOU GO IN OR AFTER if you do drugs ie mary jane then you run the risk of infection on the tooth as well as problems when the dentist is performing surgery. The same can be attributed if you do drugs after. My recomendation is to take plenty of asperin as recomended. I think the dentist have the ability to knock you out if you are in surgery. It will hurt after but trust me all the pudding and jello you can eat ! thats an awesome tradeoff.
