You'll be just fine! Be sure to follow the dentist's orders, though and don't over do it! Get plenty of rest, you definitely do not want an infection! :)

Good luck! Am thinking of you now, no idea when it's happening our time! lol :-)

I've had all four wisdom teeth out, and it was such a relief. I had mine out two weeks before my wedding! LOL My mum was highly unimpressed, but it only took a couple of days to get over and the relief was huge. You don't realise how much they affect everything till they're gone.

Take care of yourself, :-)

It's not too bad...Just don't try eating the wrong kind of foods...+ no straws.
Look at it this way. You get to have a hot fudge sundae and it IS on the diet this week!

I always find that having a bag of frozen Peas works quite well as an ice pack. We have a bag of generic peas in the freezer that we all know is only as an icepack, not for eating...

Good luck! It's a piece of cake! I was at the beach eating Doritos the next day. Actually, I was dissolving Doritos in my mouth! Chewing was a couple of days away! Just take it easy and follow the post-op instructions.

Oh Colletta I'm so sorry, I was lucky enough to not have wisdom teeth. Plan on getting rest after words and stock up on popcicles. My thoughts are with ya girl. :thumbup:

Prayers for a successful procedure and happy speedy recovery. Stay away from straws to prevent dry socket. :lol:
