Quite a milestone in my life. This problem has been bothering me for far too long now. My left lower wisdom tooth is growing out horizontally and the one on top is growing longer than it should causing much discomfort when I eat.
Been delaying this because of money issues. People who know me should understand that I went through a period of NO INCOME. And the funny thing is that once I have the income, I do not have the time coz of work.
Kinda makes you feel like a fool living as such doesn’t it? Oh well, in the real world, “you can’t have your cake and eat it”. Anyways, I finally went for the extraction on 30 Sep. Even though I went through the local anesthetic , which means I am still conscious going through the whole procedure. What an experience… The good thing is that I don’t have to see what’s going on in my mouth but the bad thing is I DON’T KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON! The drilling and cutting sounds sure don’t make it any better… I was afraid that they will cut my gums or my tongue, either way, I can’t feel anything but see lotza blood out of my mouth.
So if you’re a vividly imaginative person, it’s hell for you. Otherwise, you just sit there and open your mouth wide and let the dentist do his job. The anesthetic works like magic, I can’t feel much pain around my left jaw but I can feel the tugging at my tooth. Not pleasant at all.
After the whole thing was done, I find myself talking very funny. Just mumbling through my words.
i removed 2, and got 2 left… – -;
I’m the same as you now. Just pray hard that the other two do not decide to give us problems.
hum.. dunno.. my upper 2 are ok, but i removed the lower 2. However, the dentist told me that since the lower ones were removed, I’ve to remove the upper ones though nothing is wrong with them now. She said if i don’t remove, the upper ones will grow longer and longer coz if there’re teeth on the lower ones, it’ll kind of stop the growth of the upper one. hum.. complicated to explain in english ha shall we try french? german? or alien language?
Ah ha! I know what you mean! Because that is what happen to my upper tooth. It grew longer than it should (even though there is the lower tooth to block its growth) and caused the bottom gums to hurts and expose my lower wisdom tooth.
So it’s only a matter of time that you remove the remaining two as well!
Ahahahahaha *evil laughter*
…..
when i heard that from the dentist, I tried to tell myself that it’s not true coz i’ve never heard of that…. but but BUT…. since it happened to you… it means……..=’(
I don’t want to think of how it’ll feel the next time…..>_<
