Wisdom teeth yanked

[Thirdgen89GTA]

Took a little nap and DAMN I'm in alot of pain now. That Vicodin needs to start working ASAP

Your's sounds rougher than mine was.

Mine was pretty uneventful and not too invasive. My jaw definitely did hurt, but only if talked. The hardest thing I had to deal with was all of the blood and discharge as the sockets head.

It was sooooo hard to avoid swallowing the crap that built up and made you want to hock a lugie. But I was warned that making any negative pressure in the mouth could cause the capillaries to rupture and bleed heavily.

Also while it's healing it doesn't matter how much you brush your teeth, it always seems like you have horrid breath, not like bad breath smell but like rotting flesh smell

If you can avoid Dry Socket that keeps most of the bad smell down.

I can't remember if the Dentist told me it was okay to use mouthwash or if it was not okay. And I can't remember if I did use any.

Luckily I never dealt with a dry socket. That sounds awful

I also avoided dry socket, I was pretty worried about it.

Yeah I didn't get that either. With how shitty the aftermath of getting them pulled was for me, I made sure as hell I wasn't going to get dry socket.

so how do you avoid the dreaded dry socket? no straws, no spitting no smoking? I got stitches in mine btw

The rotting foul smell is usually a cause by dry sockets. I saw you state you didnt get any though which is weird. The regular open wound should not leave a bad smell.

Weird. Like I said I had 3 teeth pulled at 3 different times and never really had pain and they healed pretty fast so I don't think I had a dry socket.

Had all 4 yanked at the same time when I was 22, only good dental experience I've ever had, but that's because I got the IV sedation and don't remember any of it...
