My pain lasted for a week, and the blood lasted for about 2 days. I have to get my left wisdom tooth removed, but since I do phone tech support, I doubt that's gonna happen.

I still remember my mouth being stretched and fvcked up after the operation. And to make it worse, I was wearing my brothers white sweater, and had to drive 30 miles back to my house, because my mother is scared to drive on the highway. And to top it all off, it started to snow, which made traffic grind to a hault. Needless to say, I almost passed out while trying to drive home that day!!!

Having my wisdom teeth removed was the worst pain I have ever experienced. Having them removed tops when I had to have a plastic surgeon repair my head after a rather severe ATV accident in which I had no helment on and my eyebrow ended up vertical on my head. First time I ever saw my skull. Now I have a forehead covered in scars.

Anyway, my bottom two teeth grew down into the roots of the ones in front of them. They never grew out of the top of the jaw bone. The oral surgeon had to cut my gums and crack through the sides of my lower jaw and break the teeth out piece by piece. When I came to from the shot he gave me, they asked if I wanted my teeth. They were siting there in about 20 bloody pieces. Needless to say my face was black and blue for two weeks. For the first week at night it was horrible. The mepergan didn't do any good.
