Answers:
theyre probably gonna use local, but they'll still drug you (and if theyre not,find another damn doctor) and you wont remember much!. Youll be concious but "out of it"!. I remember bits and pieces of mine, where I had all 4 WT pulled out at the same time!.
They gave me some heavy painkillers and I was real swollen for a few days, but then I was good! i was nervous and overreacting to the point where I left the office twice in a week because I felt like puking!.
trust me, I waited too long until they were all impacted, so dont wait, the sooner you get them out the better it will be! It'll hurt the worse the 3rd day, but then it'll just go away, and besides, you get to eat icecream and jello and all the other yummy sugary stuff (i dont know about you but that was prohibited in my house, and the only time my mom bought ben and jerrys was that occasion) and everyone will be taking care of you, which is excellent!. Its not gonna be that bad, but pretend like it is and make everyone feel sorry so they take EXTRA care of you!
Besides, look at it ike this, you need to get it over with, the wisdom tooth is still gonna bother you and get worse if you dont have it taken care of!.
GREAT luck honey and dont worry so much!. Youll be alright!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If I were you, I would have them remove all the wisdom teeth at once!.

Let me tell you why!. Wisdom teeth are very hard to keep clean and tend to get cavities very easy!. You eventually may have to have the rest removed and you only want to have to go through this once!.

It is totally normal to be nervous!. I was sick to my stomach when I went to get mine take out and I only had novacaine!. You will be fine tho!.

To make things easier on yourself, prepare ice bags!.!.!.soft foods, and prepare to sleep alot!. Get movies to watch and a good book to read!.

After the first 24 hours you will feel alot better, but you will be swollen and sore!. The doc will give you a list of things to do for aftercare, and as long as you do what they tell you, it will help the healing process!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I had 2 wisdom teeth removed back when I was a young man in the 1950s about 8 months apart!. I also was nevous and scared, but in my case being in such pain for neglecting the problem for so long, I didn't care!. After all was said and done it went well for me!. Todays dentistry is a far cry for when I was young, because of better methods used!. You'll be all right believe me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
