I have no idea myself, I have a tooth that's somehow grown and moved in to the roof of my gum (well away from my teeth), having that removed in September (other than that, my teeth are relatively straight and so I avoid not only having other teeth removed but becoming a stereo-type too)
I got em removed a few months ago.. it's painless during the surgery, and actually pretty pleasant afterwards. The laughing gas gets you kind of high and it's pretty nice. After that.. a little bit of soreness and my cheeks swelled up for like a week. It looked funny.
Yes you wont feel pain during the pulling but after that you start getting feeling back in your mouth it would feel weird the when its completely back then it hurts. GL.
I had mine removed without gas. They just froze the whole area which is something they can do if the teeth aren't impacted. It wasn't that bad. A bit weird to be conscious for it, but no real pain... just felt a lot of pressure and I had to trust that the dentist knew what she was doing and wasn't going to rip my whole jaw out.
They gave me a few super-painkiller tablets but I didn't even need to use half of them.
I used a simple one that only lasted for an hour or 2.
I really dislike using strong anesthetics because your mouth feels "strange" afterwords. You will indeed feel nothing during the operation, but I can tell you how it feels like afterwords without any painkillers. It was hell.
So I strongly advise you to take some painkillers that last a whole day. After one day you will hardly feel any pain because your nerves will "accept" the fact that the tooth is gone.
I've had surgeries and stuff with general anesthesia before, you don't feel a thing. You're just kinda awake one minute and then awake another, with no remembrance of the things in between. Kinda cool.
As for the pain afterwards, I know a few people who've had it done and they said it wasn't too bad.
Alright I'm back. The doctor basically talked me to sleep while I was on the IV. Woke up can couldnt feel my face. Came back home and slept for 5 hours. Now theres some pain, but it's managable. Still hurts like a bitch when I yawn.
When I was a kid, I did not have straight teeth at all and they wound up not only giving me braces, but yanking a few teeth out. They actually sanded down my fang teeth and sharpening the two teeth behind them to compensate.
Hated my retainer, never wore it so my teeth are still not straight, but they're fine as far as I'm concerned.
Make sure you apply a stem cell application form, and save your wisdom tooth (teeth) up, just in case when you get old, and you lose a lot of teeth, oyu're best bet would be to implant stem cells and grow your teeth back.
I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
