Wisdom Teeth
Do they put you to sleep when you get em out? I'm horrified about it... I'm a pansy I know...
Answer:It depends on who removes them. Your dentist will use an anesthetic to numb you and possibly use N20 as well. If you see an oral surgeon for their extraction, then you will be put to sleep for the procedure. Don't think of your self as being a pansy, most everyone fears having the 3rd molar removed either way. What you should think of is the fact that the wisdom tooth has the "smallest root" of all the teeth. The reason they are considered so "bad" is that they are so far back and difficult to get to for removal. Most of the afterward pain you may experience will be from your jaws being so sore from staying stretched wide open for so long during the procedure. The second day start doing some jaw exercises, by opening and closing your mouth a little wider each time, and do this several times a day along with the warm salt water rinses. You'll do fine with which ever way you are scheduled to have them removed. Good luck and follow your dentist post-op instructions.
Youll probably get a numbing injection in your gums. My wisdom teeth are coming through and i plan on keeping mine :D
count me as a pansy too...i was out cold and had all 4 removed at once.
No, they just numb it
My teeth are very wise too, they tell me the answers to my chemistry tests that only I can know
