In an hour and a half I am going to the Oral Surgeon to have all four of my wisdom teeth removed 🙁

I will be overly drugged and giddy upon my return. Just a warning 😀

Good luck man. I had all four done when I was 14 and I was not knocked out but given a local. I swear that's when I thought I saw God (I will stay away from discussing that part any further) 😛😛

Yeah, I should've had them done back then. Now I'm 26 and in pain with rotted ruptures. Well, at least I got Dental Insurance!

I don't know if the same thing happens now but when I did get them done, I had serious chipmunk cheeks from the swelling. It didn't last too long though but work on your Marlon Brando imitation from the Godfather.

Good luck with the whole tooth demolition project. Make sure they give you the happy gas, it's well worth the trip (according to a friend of a friend).

Thanks, Christian Rock singer.

I'll just be remembering the inspirational words of The Word:

"You'll never be as big as Jesus
Put it all on his shoulders, little girl
And get up here on my lap
Plant my cross into your soil"

Been there. It's no fun for sure. If you smoke take heed to the warning to refrain for a while afterwards. You do NOT want dry sockets!!

After the surgery you shouldn't smoke as it dries out the holes where the molars were. Causes EXTREME pain if it happens. Smoke a few before you get there my man or you may be a wreck after. Ask the doc to explain more but just follow his directions and you should be ok.

For after your surgery:

"Have a beer for breakfast, no you don’t need a spoon
A couple of white cross vitamins will take you to the moon
Grab your coat and grab your hat it’s off to the saloon and it’s alright"

And watch those dry sockets.

Yeah, my dentist told me not to smoke for atleast a week afterwards ... But it didn't seem to matter seeing that the drugs I was prescribed kept me incapable of performing even the most minimal of activities i.e taking a leak etc ... I can't even remember what happened during those 4-5 "daze" after the operation ... Oh well, good luck anyway ... 😕

So I've heard. But their rhythm guitarist always looks like he has to pee.

So are you going to give your woman some cash-money so she can go shopping while you have your underground enamel extracted?

The only way I'll give her some money is if she goes out and buys a nurse outfit to wear for the next 4 days... because that's what she'll be doing 😀
