I am in god aweful pain right now.On friday the dentist was supposed to pull out all 4 of my wisdom teeth.They gave me adavan,only to which I laughed at the dentist when he couldn't pull out my right upper wisdom for 1 hr.He finally pulled it out and went onto the right lower.Well,for another hour he tried and tried and only got half the tooth out.So he stitched up that part and left the other half in.My god,my mouth is so sore.It feels as if I have mono on my throat and my ear is sore on that side.I've been swooshing salt around and it's not helping.Then on top of that,When he went to take out the bottom tooth he mentioned that I had pus on that tooth.So I have been taking amoxocillin,tylenol3's,and ibuprofen.So between being stone and sore,I'm also bunged{constipated}up.I have an appt. with the specialist to take the 2.5 remaining teeth out under local anestetic.But my god,I'm in so much pain from all this.Really,in my opinion,there was no need to take them out because they weren't bothering me.But then again it could be because of the way they were growing. :o

For those of you keeping score, this is why you don't let a general dentist near your wisdom teeth. A good oral surgeon can pop out four typical errupted wisdom teeth in about 20 minutes. Dude- good luck with your specialist.
