I have to get my wisdom teeth out soon. How much does it hurt. (I bet it hurts a lot). Another question, does it hurt more if you get all 4 out, rather than 2?
Cheers

Sorry to be the party pooper, but my sister and 2 brothers ALL got their wisdom teeth pulled out and their face was swelled, they actually were crying, and they had to wear a ice pack all the way around their head for a week. They said it hurt like hell and the anesthesia didn't work. If thats how you say it. <<
Yeah, anyways....um....Im sure you will be find and it won't hurt a bit! :D
-gets queasy feeling-
Maybe.
Good luck! ~Caitlin

i had all 4 out at once.
the pain medication put me in more pain than the recovery from the operation.

I'm getting one of my wisdom teeth at the moment. It doesn't hurt so far, but hopefully I won't have to get them out! If there is enough room for your wisdom teeth than you won't have to worry about getting them out.

All four of mine were taken out at once, I remember that I woke up right after it was done and it hurt like heck then the nurse gave me a shot of diasipam and then I woke up at home the next day. I was medicated a lot. You will be fine, do not worry, you are int he hands of a specialist.
Personally, I can only handle pain until it hurts.

For me, the first two days, I had no pain, then came the pain... Your face will be swollen, and most likely on the first day, you won't be able to eat. Your mouth will be bleeding for, if not all, the first day. The pain is going to be a sore pain. You won't have a cut pain. It will just be your jaw. I was prescribed Ibuprofen, so I was able to ignore the pain.

You'll be out when they take them out, and if you take the pain meds then you won't be in too much pain. You won't be able to chew properly; I literally lived on pudding and spaghetti for 5 days afterward.

Pudding and machoroni for me. Worst week of my life.
