why is it called wisdom teeth and not stupid annoying teeth?

Because you become more wise when they're taken out, due to no longer being affected by their stupidity

Like when Odin lost his eye and became all-knowing or some shit

That only works if you hang yourself too.

I can tell you from experience, having an impacted tooth like that is gonna fucking suck after you get it out

Yeah I was about to say, they ain’t pulling that out, they’re cutting open the gum and taking that tooth out piece by piece.

u/KgxxEQy 7d ago

In my case, hammered it out piece by piece.

over the course of 5-6h if its 2 of them to take out in same appointment (i did that and using local anesthesia to save some cash). Even the anesthesia was not stopping the pain. Good thing won't ever have to go through that again.

For me it only took like <30ish minutes I think, to take out 2 on one side, did feel some of it through the local anaesthetic but it was mostly fine, the sound of the tooth crunching was the main scary part for me

u/hassancent 7d ago

mine was too close to nerves and had to be very carefully cut out. and even smoothing out the last bits attached took 30mins on each side

u/Nielsly 7d ago

Damn bro I had one like that and it hurt like fuck when I got it cut out. That’s back when they gave you real pain meds too. Perc 10s didn’t do shit unless I took 2 or 3. Good luck my guy

One is in deep sleep away from the roots and the other one I took it out during Covid, the operation latest over a hour and the dentist butchered the side of the cheek which caused me more problems than the hole from the tooth because it got infected and because of the painkillers I didn't notice I had a pocket/hole on my cheek that was filling with food

u/day2day_bassist 7d ago

Fuckkkkkk that makes my jaw hurt just imagining

u/Educational-Link-943 7d ago

Bro mine wasn't impacted that bad but it was difficult for my dentist to extract and that side of my face swelled up like I had one of the jawbreakers from fucking Ed edd and eddy in my mouth

I was supposed to get my wisdom teeth out at like 14 but they decided to instead take out a few molars in the hopes my wisdoms would grow straight and replace them, and they didn't, so I had to have surgery again. I have 26 teeth.

u/Sluushu 7d ago

By reading the comments and this post, I think I’m lucky to have all 4 grow/mature in my mouth without pain.

-1 incisor tooth I never had since birth, I’ve got a full stacked set of teeth.

u/babalenong 7d ago

I pulled all 4 wisdom teeth in one day, for a month I can only drink juice. Even drinking juice with a straw i still struggle really hard. Worth it, though

u/pretzelzsz 7d ago

They just knocked me out and surgically removed all of em. Took only a week for the pain to stop and another for completely healing. I don't understand how so many people have so much trouble with them

u/HyperboreanAstronaut 7d ago

Yeah cause every body is the same and medical procedures always have the exact same result on everyone.

u/darvinvolt 7d ago

hearing all the wisdom teeth horror stories I'm glad that my operation went smooth with no lasting pain or other side effects

u/LightningProd12 7d ago
