Anbesol is the Best!!

My wisdom teeth are really bothering me and I am waiting to hear back from my insurance company on coverage, I don't think it'll happen....

So, I have resorted to using Anbesol. It makes me drool.

Local anesthetics rock.

When did you have your wisdom teeth out?

Dry socket?!

What in the hell is that?!

Anbesol is good stuff, very useful.

I had my wisdom teeth out when I was 13, I guess that's early but mine were impacted and so had to be surgically removed. Sucked that day but overall wasn't too bad of an experience. They just loaded me up with meds and gave me a vicodin prescription.

Don't skimp on pain killers, take them as much as you need to. People in pain tend to heal more slowly, plus it'll make your life miserable.

Bea Arthur's lady parts?

MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *dies*

Ayaya! That sounds terrible!!

i had 4 of mine out in 2000. one was impacted and there was a lot of drilling but i didn't feel it.

advice: if you get it done they will probably give you an RX for a pain killer and an RX of antibiotics to stave off infection. See if you can get these ahead of time so you dont have to mess around and have them filled on the same day. unless you have someone that will get them for you. i didnt and i had to go into the pharmacy myself.. with my mouth full of cotton.. and when i tried to talk i bled everywhere. it sucked. i was away from home at the time.

other than that.. just like Clara said...follow the after care instructions and you will be fine.

Mine came in when I was 16, and I had them plucked from my skull while I was under general anesthesia piece of cake except the stitches came out.

Dry socket is no joke, if you jaw gets infected it can spread through out your skull and that would be bad. I however have yet to see this kind of an infection but it has to be worse than any abcessed tooth I have ever seen and they can invade your sinus cavities and that seriously sucks. On the lighter side antibiotics work use all of them!

i got 8 teeth pulled at once. my wisdom teeth and my twelve young molars. they drugged my up real good. i was in quite a bit of pain afterwards. but the painkillers they gave me works wonders

I have decided that teeth suck.

I'm going to have all of them pulled and just get dentures.

Cripes, I had my wisdom teeth out a long time ago, but damn if I didn't just have some phantom pain at that description...and my operation went well...ack...you have a way with words...ahh...now I've got the heebies...

i still have my wisdom teeth...

Guess that is why i am teh smurtest!

oh yes lovely stuff


I've had days where I have had to nearly drink the stuff just to be civil to people.

We used to rub Baby Anbesol on the dog's tongue. She would sit there and lick the air for a couple of minutes.

I never had wisdom teeth. From what I hear, I didn't really miss anything.

Maybe that's what made it fart

I have to get mine out very soon.

I won't let them take out my wisdoms. I refuse. they are all impacted. fuck that. also, i haven't had dental insurance for a long time.

never had mine pulled, hurt like hell for weeks at a time, but no insurance and no cash kinda held me back,. just self medicated with ora-gel and lots of jager.

I'm 21 and there's no sign of them yet.

However, when I was having 4 molars pulled, the dentist dropped the third one IN MY LUNG! Nitrous knocks out your gag reflex, so it just plopped down. Big molar, full roots, and all the gore that comes with it, right in my lung. I had to go to the hospital and just as the local from my mouth wore off, they put me under general. Had to stick one of those grabby camera tubes down like you see on ER. That was a bad day.
