odd. I had all four of mine taken out when i was 18 and all four were impacted.. They gave me a full dose of vicadin to take home with me but never even needed to use it. I was in very very little pain?? Sucks to be you.

Got my wisdoms out when I was in the AF. They asked if I wanted a local anesthetic or to be put under. I told ‘em to gas me. Started counting backward from 100…made it to 98. Next thing I know they’re wheelin’ me down the hall in a wheelchair. Done. The dentist later gave me 2 teeth in a bag. Turns out he had to crack two of ‘em outta there with a chisel. I forever have this mental picture of the dentist standing over me on the arms of the chair with a ballpeen hammer and a chisel in my mouth. I am soooo glad I wasn’t awake for that.

They gave me Tylenol 4 for the pain. I didn’t know any better. I thought they were just super strength Tylenols. So I took 4. Good thinkin’, I thought, ‘cause they’re Tylenol 4. Talk about dopey. I knew I was doing all the stupid things I was doing under their influence, I just didn’t care.

After a couple weeks I had to go in to get the stitches removed - the quack didn't put in dissolving stitches. He proceeds to chew my A1C butt out because I'm not brushing back there. He'* like, a Captain or Major maybe even a full bird - I don't remember, so I can't tell him to stuff it, chowderhead, those bristles hurt on those healing wounds. Then he starts pulling stitches. He gets to one and starts yanking. I'm coming right out of the chair and he'* yelling at me to sit still. A few yanks later and he realizes he forgot to cut this one. I was too young then, but if he tried that now, being older, wiser, and more crotchety, I'd plant my foot right between his legs and turn his grapes into wine. Jerk.

Wish I could say “I feel your pain”. But I can’t. You’ll just have to find comfort in the words, “This too, shall pass”.

I had my 2 left ones removed and it took weeks for the pain to go away. Vicodin did nothing but Percocet helped alot.
