when they pulled 2 of my wisdom teeth they had me take some valium... well valium and i don't get along really well apparently... i had no forward or right side balance, but i could walk to the left and not loose my balance... talk about screwed up... and the gas did nothing.
Hehe that sucks. I was lucky i guess. was able to walk and move ok. Just felt like I had a buzz from drinkin a few beers. The gas took quite awhile to affect me as well but once it did it was great stuff.
My wisdom tooth extraction went very smoothly. I went to a wisdom tooth specialist, the whole thing took maybe half an hour, and I was lucid and walking out the door. I didn't even need painkillers.
A lot depends on how good the surgeon is; if he butchers your gums, he just blames the long recovery time and high pain level on you , knowing that you have no way of knowing whether this is your body or his clumsiness. I knew a woman who once had a piece of a drill bit left in her jaw by a fucking incompetent dental surgeon.
Pretty much the same for me. We went to a specialist and he did a great job and said the operation went well took about a half hour. I wasn't really all that worried cause this guy has done it for years and has a good reputation for wisdom teeth operations. I was still nervous a bit though cause this is the first operation ive ever had out of my 20 yrs of life so far.
