Okay, have you ever had all four wisdom teeth removed? Because I just did this past Friday. I’m really not good with needles, blood, or being put to sleep for a surgery so I was super, super nervous. It took the doctor almost two hours to get all four teeth out because of how impacted they were
Needless to say, I look like a chipmunk.
Since I’ve been stuck in my apartment all weekend, I don’t really have much new to report except for that I’ve been eating a lot of soup, froyo, and egg beaters with hummus:
I have to admit, even the egg beaters have been a bit difficult to manage. Now I’m off to sit outside on my porch to at least catch some sun.. originally I thought maybe I’d be able to go for a walk today, but it doesn’t really seem like that’s going to happen. Ugh!
Question of the Day: If you’ve had your wisdom teeth removed, how long did it take for the swelling to go down? Please tell me a day or two!!


Took a few days for the swelling to come down. I was on a nice dose of oxycodone for a few days as well. Your jaw will be tight for a little while. You got through the surgery that’s all that matters
You’re totally right, I’m just glad it’s over, thanks Marla!
I’ve never had mine removed but I hope you feel better really soon!!!
Thanks so much Kerry!
I had all four of mine pulled senior year of high school. I actually didn’t have a lot of swelling (my mom had ice on me ALL day and made me turn over every half hour on the couch) and the pain wasn’t that bad – I was really lucky. Hope you feel better soon!
Egg beaters with hummus… That sounds interesting!
Oh my gosh I have SO much swelling!!
It will be over before you know it! Praying for quick recovery!
Thank you SO much Nikki! The swelling just won’t stop.
it takes a full week to two weeks to completely go away.
Well then I’ll sure be looking good this Memorial Day weekend lol
