Wisdom Teeth

I won't gross you out with a picture, cuz they were kinda yucky looking. But I had the great pleasure :( of getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth ripped out of my face 2 weeks ago. I should have done it alot sooner. But as with anything, every dentist has their own theory on when teeth should come out. But it was nice, because this doctor gave me steroids (so I wouldn't swell) before and after the procedure, very nice pain drugs, and a antibiotic. Which I guess not all doctors do. But it still sucked, I was cursed with my dad's big teeth. And so the dentist did have to cut one of the bottom ones out. And to top it off, I got dry socket. Which is when the clot falls out before it is suppose to and so your bone is exposed. All it really means is that it hurts and needs to be packed until it heals. So I am on a first name basis with all the staff at the dentist office since I have to go in so much. Oh well. At least it is one less thing on my to-do list.
