well when mine were removed I had a reaction to the codeine in the pain killers they gave me and threw up...the dentist would not give me anything else and told me to take 6 Tylenol every four hours! and that did not even dull the pain!! needless to say I am glad that they are all gone and I have not had any more problems

I had four impacted wisdom teeth out in hospital under a general anesthetic.
It was fine: I was given drugs and ice packs for the pain and swelling, and went home the next day with a fresh packet of pain killers.
I barely even swelled up and had minimal pain with treatment, and no follow up problems. I really recommend going to hospital to have it done, even though my dentist thought this was cowardly.
I figure if someone wants to saw through my jawbone, I want to be asleep when it happens!

if they are getting cut out you'll have one week of swelling and stuff... after that week it wont be as bad...
the worst time is when the Novocaine wears off and you don't have the painkillers in your system in time...
but if you keep taking them until its over it wont be too bad
your face will be bruised up and swollen quiet a bit though...
i had to take two extra strength vicodins at times to make the pain go away though... and that puts you in a whole diff. world =) but you'll like the different world

Just think positive, things will go fine for you I'm sure.
I can tell you normally after the medication wears off you will be in some pain. Your dentist may give you a Rx for pain medication. If you like, use an ice pack on your
face to keep swelling down.. Just remember your dentist
is a professional and he knows what he is doing. You may want to have some yogurt, plain soup or something on that line to eat when you feel up to it. Keep tongue out of gum hole where teeth were removed. May taste some blood when drinking or eating something, it will go away.

hey,
so i'm 20 and i got my wisdom teeth out just 5 days ago now, so that was friday. i got penicillian and 10 oxycodone 5's to take home.... with one of my teeth impacted. i might have messed up by eating foods that were too hard too soon, because as this is the 5th day i can still feel pain where the impaction was, not bad, but like the tooth is still there and its pushing the other molar. the molar it was by is actually quite loose now, like wiggle with the fingers loose. and my bottom teeth are sore in the front, they had bunched a little since my teeth came in. im using listerine now too, and that may be bad. they say salt water. dry socket is supposed to be a sharp pain like when you drink or consume anything. you should know if that develops. they saw to call in that case.... i would say try and resist the urge to put your tongue back there untill like 5-6 days after they're gone. it's an unpleasant surprise. and do take the antibiotics as directed. its a lot easier that way. ive used 4 of my oxy's and that was at night to sleep. i take 600 mg ibuprophen occasionally. my follow up is in 2 days, to get stitches out and such.
Also, when i went in they put an oxygen mask on my nose, gave me a little shot, and didnt tell me that the shot would put me out. then they started putting a rubber spacer in to keep my mouth open. well, as i was delirious, i asked my friend to call the police because i didn't like having that in my mouth. it's amazing how quickly it's over, like you sit down and then 30 secs later you're out. i was really surprised how easy it was, i only slept 2 hours on the anestesia when i got home, and then i was up and at em. kinda fun actually!
best of luck with you surgery!

GET IV MEDS! They are awesome. I woke up mumbling and of course I couldn't walk anywhere but it was pretty crazy. While you are out you have some crazy dreams. You shouldn't feel a thing or remember anything either if they give you enough meds. It's pretty fun coming out of it though. I was trying to read the paper they give you about how to care for the sites and I was seeing double. It was so funny. It didn't start hurting until several hours afterwards but just take the meds they give you and sleep A LOT! That will help a ton. Buy some Jello and broth so you can eat too.Chicken and Stars is good for food but just make sure a little star doesn't get in one of the holes. Change your gauze as often as it needs. It needs changed a lot the first few hours. If you wet it with cold water, it will help with the pain and swelling. Good luck, and I really wouldn't let them do it if you aren't going to be sedated. You'll remember everything and hear it all if you don't get meds. Other than that, I had a good experiance and I hope you do too!

I'd like to start off by saying, be tough. If you're like me, worrying about the healing of the extraction sites and stuff can make matters worse simply by your mind playing tricks on you. For the first two hours, you'll actually be feeling great (if you got local). About three hours after, you'll begin to get an extreme headache(talking about how my day went) followed by pain in the jaw and mouth. I advise you to take your pain medicationas soon as you get home, just so you wont have to deal with the pain to start off. I'm assuming you'll be given antibiotics as well. Along with those pain meds youll have to eat, which will be tough to do for the first day or two (soft foods) The first night will be the roughest because you'll most likely be bleeding and if you accidentally slip on your side at night, youll wake up with pain from lying on the site all night. After about four days, your swelling should begin to subside. Everything from day two is easy sailing as long as you follow OS orders. Good luck.
P.S....After everything is over and you've healed correctly, you'll actually get a good sense of pride that you got them out and you're one of the many lucky people who will never have to worry about them later in life where more problems could arise.
