A question about wisdom teeth..?!


Question: A question about wisdom teeth..?
I just got mine pulled on monday, and they said to use salt water after every meal on the 4th day, but when do I stop? Did you get your wisdom teeth pulled? how did it go for you? when did you get to eat solid food comfortably? thank you!!!!!!!!!!! :):):)

Answers:

The salt water is for rinsing out bits of food to keep it from rotting when it packs itself into the hole where the tooth was so you do not get the opening infected until it forms a plug in the hole. I myself had no problems or pain whatsoever and ate a Wendy's triple burger with the works and 3 corn-dogs the very next day and within a week I went back to the dentist so they could look at its progress and it was completely healed. I told the dentist everything I did that week and what I ate and he told me I had the quickest healing mouth with impacted Wisdom teeth that he had ever seen. So results do vary from person to person.



Oh hell... that hurts A LOT! Salty water is not the best solution in my opinion, but it does work.
May be 2 weeks more. It is generally used to clean the place where the tooth was and to somewhat stop the pain.
Anyway - it varies for different people, better consult your dentist :)
