John4cars Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 (edited) Well today I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled and let me tell you, not the funnest thing ever. Looks like I will probably take off for about about 2 weeks. Here is a nice pick of my bloody teeth. Along with my swollen eyes and swollen face!

MalachiMcMullen Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Ewww, my mom was and a friend were both out of comission for a week or two after theirs were taken out. I've never had mine out and don't even have Wteeth in my bottom jaw(lucky me, I know). That must stink though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shizen Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 2 weeks off of bending because of wisdom teeth? Heck I remember getting mine pulled on a thursday morning and I was squatting on friday night. there are a lot of factors, such as how old you are when you get them out, how big they were, how deep ext ext. It could take a few days but your right should not be more then a few days, definitely not two weeks for most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Manion Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Have fun healing John. I had my wisdom teeth yanked when I was 18, and while that week or two off from training wasn't fun, the proper healing was worth the wait. In fact, I set a hang clean PR when I got home from having my stitches cut out. Derek, this is probably a no-brainer for you, but I'm assuming you'll be given the option of + or - anesthesia, as I was. The doctor did this for legal reasons. Talk this over with your folks, for sure, but I advise getting KO'd. I was very, very sore even with all the anesthetic and pain killers administered during surgery, so I can't imagine having the surgery done without KO drugs. What helped me heal was lotsa cold, soft food, like pudding. My secret weapon for healing, as I recall, was a bunch of chocolate shakes from White Castle.

I've been under the knife many times before Brad I know what I'm doing But yes I'll be using anesthesia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
