Wisdom tooth gonee

24 June 2014, Have been dragging holidays after holidays, finally set a date to get 2 of my lower wisdom tooth out of the way. Technically they weren't out yet, they were still in my gums, no roots at all, hence the dental felt that it would be easier to get it out anytime soon. Yeaps, so i was super worried about the pain and all, threw mum thousands of questions on our way to the dental HAHAH, and kept texting cousie who got hers out first. So it wasn't as bad i must say.

Had painkillers and antibiotics before the extraction/surgery? 6 injections, 3 on each side. The first 4 jabs weren't as painful at all, you can just feel the liquid going in to your gums, not much feeling, really. The last 2 jabs are done bit by bit pressed into the gums, that was painful, but bearable. After those jabs, anesthetic jabs i think, i can't feel a thing. So the doctor gave me an overview of what is going to happen, and then covered my eyes and started, he updated me on what he is doing every time. Like cutting and pulling the gums apart, he saw the teeth, he's gonna cut the teeth into 2, he's gonna crack it, taking out each half of the teeth, sewing the gums back.

Both the nurse and dental was very reassuring and were superbly nice, mega thanks and grateful it went really well, the whole process took less then an hour about 30 minutes.Was feeling okay until the drug came off and i start to feel a little pain on one side. As soon as i reached home, i slept. Seems scary but it wasn't that bad. Swollen jaws and then on some ridiculous diet :( For the whole of yesterday i only ate a small piece of choc cake for breakfast skipped lunch and had vitasoy milk and icecream for dinner. Great time to slim down a little.  Cant talk or laugh too much because there might be bleedingg... So yeaps 5 days mc, till then end of hols i should be feeling great again!A gold fish pic LOLOL.

Day 2 after the extraction, swelling has gone down alittle !
