I had my two upper wisdom teeth removed today… I asked the dental assistant if I talked about anything funny or embarrassing while high on anesthesia she said I rambled on about BTS 😳 I told her to spare me the exact details because I can only imagine what I said. Note to self, don’t watch an episode of run BTS or clips of their performances right before going under
Lol XD. I really don’t understand why dentists ( I assume it was in the US) drug patients to remove wisdom teeth to the point of getting them high. I live in the US but it was cheaper to get them removed in Mexico, and while my whole mouth was numb I wasn’t that drugged. In fact because it was in a little town where my grandparents live, the dentist left after he removed one because he had to file a report for a traffic accident. While we waited for him I sat on the waiting room talking to my grandma and I was lucid. Anyway I hope you feel better :)…
I think it’s how your body reacts to the meds used to put you under… My sister and I were completely fine— and I even got double dose of meds to put me under because one dose wouldn’t do it
Yup, the US! They decide whether to put you to sleep or to just numb your jaw depending on your age and if your teeth are impacted and still attached to the bone . Unfortunately for me I had bone impactions and upper wisdom teeth roots are close your sinus so it was safer and easier to be put to sleep. Funny thing is I have no clue when I knocked out and I definitely don’t remembering waking up the first time when I said everything 🤭
I got mine done in Canada, and I wasn’t knocked out (that doesn’t seem to be the norm there?) but they did give me some kind of pill to “relax” and I was pretty out of it while the procedure happened. (Though I do have a very distinct memory of the dentist and his assistant talking about movies and getting something wrong and I wanted to yell “It’s not Matthew Mcconaughey”.) I do remember being a bit goofy before I went in. Also, I was high as a kite on the painkillers that whole weekend. I think my housemates were very amused at the whole thing.
I was given laughing gas first to help me relax, which in all honesty I barely felt. Then the Dr. distributed the anesthesia through an IV and I think that hit quickly because the Dr. was like think of something happy and I’m pretty sure I was out cold. With my lower wisdom teeth I was just given a shot and I literally heard the dentist crack my tooth to pull it out 😖 I also have a tiny mouth which has been a pain for every dentist working on me and sucky for me because I feel sore after a while- getting put to sleep was just the better option for me although it costs a bit more
Yeah, I distinctly remember hearing them crack my teeth – I got all four out in one go, hence the massive amounts of painkillers after. I think they gave me the anti-anxiety pill and then just did local anesthesia which I’m always wary of. I’ve had a couple of teeth pulled because I too have a small mouth and the first time the anesthesia didn’t take and I was in massive amounts of pain but sucked it up because I thought that was normal. Then the next time there was literally no pain and I realized I was an idiot for not telling my dentist that I was in pain the first time. Also I was like 12, but still. At least I have a very high pain tolerance.
In the US if you pull all 4 wisdom teeth teeth out at once 99% of the time they put you to sleep. You must be a trooper because when I feel any pain during dental work I start to whimper so they’ll give me more Novocain lol
You should get them out ASAP, my teeth actually shifted because I left them in too long 😐 Don’t be scared to go under, it felt like waking up from a really good nap haha and just don’t let anyone film you during or after lol
Ugh 😢. I have two top ones and one bottom. My top two are pretty much all the way in. They haven’t caused me any pain, but the dentist says I still need to get them out because they could cause me problems later on.

Omg! I need to get mine out, but I keep putting it off because I’m terrified:
1. of being put under
2. of the embarrassing nonsense I might say
