Any positive wisdom tooth removal stories please

Good, glad it's over, you'll soon look back on it.
To be honest mine didn't go great, but afterwards was fine and now it's a memory.

absolutely no problem for me at all
went to work afterwards

Slept a bit but now woke up in mega pain :(

have you had a sluice of salted water?
a pain killer?

Took more ibroprofen at 5am

Its ok when pain killers working.
Its just really ouchy when pain killers wear off like at 430am

Listen to the post op instructions and do the salt washes. Get food in you can easily eat one side and avoid rice for a few days as it gets stuck in the hole

I know they say no alcohol but I found gin helped . Just do t mix alcohol and strong painkillers

i only had three, two were fine, one was pretty awful for a few days and i went back to the dentist, but since then all fine.

Thank you

Had ' smooth ' yoghurt
And ' smooth ' soup

Been doing salt washes

Still taking ibroprofen and paracetamol

For your middle of the night painkillers - take the dose out of the packaging and put in a little dish next to a glass of water somewhere in your bedroom . Then move all the rest of the meds somewhere else. That way when you wake in the night you don’t have to look at your list and work out which tablets to take and how many , they are all ready for you.

It also reduces the risk of waking at 3am , taking some paracetamol, then waking again at 4 am and forgetting you have take them already.

You want to stagger the doses of the two types of tablets .

Are you on antibiotics as well?

Thank you

No they didnt give anti botics

Ive had some short periods of a bit less pain

But its now over 24 hrs since it - just had a video call -, talked a bit - now bad pain again

Will see how things go

May get dentist to check it mon or tues

Thank you

Had some chocolate milk from a glass

And some mash potato

Tomorrow il mush up banana and blue berries etc maybe

Have lotsa soup and yoghurts in

And got ice cream

Hoping il have turned a corner by Monday or tues

Thankfully today , ive been able to increase the gaps between pain killers

Like had pain relief at 6am

Then not again til 2pm

Whereas yesterday it was every 4 hrs

Thanks all
