Ewwwwwww. I hope they are not impacted:(

I used to assist with Dental surgery before I became a hygienist. The biggest thing to know is....If you smoke (cigs,blunts,joints) anything that requires you to 'suck' DON'T DO IT! This is the best advice!! After your surgery you will form blood clots, and it is important that they remain intact. If you suck through a straw or smoke a cig you will remove the clots and you will end up with a dry socket, OUCH.

Just a little friendly advice from your hygienist!

Good luck!
:peace:

they haven't given me my prescription yet, should be vicodin though.

and yes, I'm bummed about not being able to smoke, I've been dry over 2 weeks now (not by choice, just do to people who don't answer their fucking phones consistently) and now I have to wait even longer!

Mine weren't showing through, my they were already starting to push my teeth out of alignment (they were crooked like politicians) so they had to go.

I am all drugged up on vikes but it still kinda hurts, I might consider asking for stronger.

This sucks but at least I'm still at home with nothing to do.

Yucks.. When I had my wisdom teeth removed I hadd oxy's too.. I hated it though.. Which to me is a good thing.
ya, I've only taken pills recreationally once, and that was to knock myself out for a long ass car ride with the parents. (I was not driving, for the record)
