I found out during my first semester of college that all of my wisdom teeth were embedded sideways in my jawbone, and had to have them removed over Christmas break. I highly recommend general anesthesia, and definitely take whatever painkillers they prescribe you!

I went out the same day/night that I got mine out... I was 17 tho. I feel bad for anyone who waits till they're older.

The pain is no where near excruciating. The amount of teeth changes nothing, you will only be sore. The only thing that I could kind if understand pouting for would be the food restrictions, that I actually paid no attention too and I did just fine. At least you won't have to do and make up work or be seen at school all fatfaced? :D

Dont worry, it doesn't hurt too bad, and if you explain your concern to the receptionist and ask her to put you on a waiting list, you might get ahold of a cancellation or two and get it done sooner.

It's over 2 months away and you're whining and crying already. You don't know if your face will swell and you don't know how painful it's going to be. I had all 4 of mine out at once, got neither, and was eating solid food the next day. Damn, I hate whiners.

I had all of my wisdom teeth pulled at once over christmas break my sophomore year of college. It only really sucked for like a day or two. I didn't even swell. And you get badass painkillers. That was actually one of the best christmas breaks I ever had. Seriously.

wowz 8?! lol tht really sux op.. tho ik da feeling, u bettr b gett'n some damn gud happy pills 4 ur recovery :)

I had mine done and no problems. I don't know what everyone cries about. I left the office and literally ate fried chicken like 20 mins after leaving the office. suck it up!

the exact same thing happened to me! it sucked so bad! sorry

WTF?! so you say that you have 36 teeth?! if that's true...... HOLY CRAP!!!
