You my dear, are one of the luck ones!. However, getting your wisdom teeth out and the healing process is different with everyone!. I was just a little groggy when I came home, the next day it hurt and then was fine by day three!. I too felt pretty lucky!. Make sure you follow all the directions you were given by your doctor because even though you feel great!.!.!.your body is still healing and you do NOT want dry socket!.

That depends!.

The nerve that innervates the tooth area is a different nerve from the one that innervates the rest of your jaw and muscles, so the dentist would have done a few different blocks in order to get you totally numb for the surgery!. Maybe you were given more anaesthetic in the tooth area, and it's taking longer to wear off!.

Or, if the procedure wasn't complicated and the teeth came out well, maybe you're just lucky!. I guess you'll find out soon enough!Www@Answer-Health@Com

When my son got in the car after having his wisdoms out, he said, "this wa fun, I want to do it again tomorrow!." He had al the nurses and drs laughing!. But, the next day, "Mom, I need something for the pain, would you make me a milkshake, help me to the bathroom, I need to put something on my mouth to stop the pain!." The 3rd day was the worst and afte that he was fine!. he did not remember, wanting to go back andoing it again!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Some people NEVER experience much pain with the procedure!. You could be one of the lucky ones! Make sure you keep taking care of everything though, like cleaning and what not, everything the dentist told you to do!. You don't want to get what's called a DRY SOCKET, that's where the real pain comes in!Www@Answer-Health@Com

you probably just got lucky! I got mine out and I took a nap after, and by that evening I felt completely fine and went out with my friends! Just make sure to gargle saltwater to help the sockets heal!Www@Answer-Health@Com
