I'm on the app and can't search so sorry if it's been done a gazillion times.
I'm due to have all 4 wisdom teeth out a week before Christmas and just want to know what to expect. Is the recovery horrendous or manageable if you stay on top of painkillers? How long until I can eat properly? (*dreams of losing a stone in two days) How long will I need off work?
I've had a general before so not terribly anxious (yet). The only thing I'm worried about is numbness as one root is on a facial nerve but the surgeon said permanent numbness is v.v. rare. What are your experiences?
TIA and I promise my next post will be more interesting and about bum sex or something
