How long until all this shit is over with?
You'll bleed for 2-3 days or so, but you'll ooze blood for a week (4-7 days). As in it won't be "bleeding" but when you wake up in the morning you'll be spitting out some blood from blood that's still escaping through micro tears as it's healing.wwm0nkey said:Not really minding it right now, the gauze how ever is starting to annoy me.

I had all 4 removed at once as well.
Dude getting knocked out is AMAZING, last thing you will remember is them getting ready with there medical equipment and them BAM you will probably be in you car or home.legacyzero said:I have to get mine done pretty soon.
Did you get knocked out for it, or did you just get poked with the nova-needle and take it like a boss?
I'm srsly afraid of getting knocked out. I've never done it before and it just sounds so frightening...

I somewhat remember getting into my car via wheel chair though.

I'm awesome with the nova-needle. I would do it that way if they weren't all impacted and needed to be cut out. Gonna be a long ass weekend for me when I do it. I have to stop putting it off. The headaches suck sometimes LOL.Jakeh111 said:needle for me cause im cheap and have no dental, GO AMERICA

It sounds like you were put on anesthesia, me on the other hand was not as lucky as they put me under laughing gas. Mid way through the surgery the gas (cranked at 50%) wore off and I regained consciousness with full senses besides feeling numb from Novocaine. I would have asked them to crank the gas to 75% but my mouth was pried open while they were pulling and drilling my gums and teeth. The pressure I felt as they pulled out my upper left wisdom tooth felt like my face was being crushed by a table clamp.
One thing I recommend is you follow the Dr. instructions. After surgery I said to hell with their stupid rules and ate pretzels and other hard foods as well as smoking cigarettes and other dumb shit. Very stupid decisions on my part and I felt the repercussions a week later when I developed dry sockets in the bottom right socket. The pain was excruciating, to the point where I contemplated getting another oxycodone refill. Granted, the pills they prescribed me were generic and weak as shit they certainly relieved a degree of pain. If I could start over I would have taken better care of my mouth. I had dry sockets for over a month after my surgery. Seriously guy, fight all temptations that come your way, particularly solid foods and you will heal after a week, or perhaps two if your unlucky.
