I may have to get mine out...my family has a history of issues, so not looking forward to it if so. Brother had one break during the extraction, pieces got left behind, and my mother had to have her jaw surgically cracked to get one of hers out...
honestly... just find someone that is expensive and reliable. i got mine done in a dentist chair under heavy sedation rather than getting a general anaesthetic and having it done in the hospital. the cocktail of drugs i was on for the sedation was the best thing ever...

ketamine... morphine... some other sh*t... mmmm... all sh*t you'd get locked up for possessing. the advantage of getting things done this way rather than getting put out are that you are technically awake during the procedure and can respond to the dental surgeons instructions... rather than them just dislocating your jaw and having at it, or whatever they do in hospitals these days with them. they can be a bit more precise and delicate. i got practically zero swelling compared to some people i've seen.

you also have the advantage of waking up like a space cadet rather than waking up feeling like a truck has hit you. i couldn't feel sh*t all day after the surgery - i just floated around with a big, bloody grin... musing at all the seemingly weird sh*t on this planet.

edit - just like to add that whether it's heavy sedation or general anaesthetic... you don't remember sh*t either way. i can vaguely remember annoying the surgeon at one stage trying to scratch my nose... but other than that it's a total blank. sedation ftw.

I have a massive jaw so my wisdom teeth came in fine, only problem is one of them is pointy and occasionally cuts me when I eat. When that happens I get a sore that lasts a little while because I keep re-cutting it. Doesn't happen very often though, told my dentist about it and he just said to let him know if it was getting too bad.

Same.

I went to the dentists the other day for an epic clean because I'm going back to the Orthodontists soon. I've had wires behind my teeth for a few years now, wonder if they ever get to come out :crazy:

Mate, think about it - much as I hate to say it...Should a Parramatta fan really be one to comment about others' oral hygiene and/or buccal status?

oh yeah. Seriously, avoid Parra v Souths fans like the plague...talk about dregs of society

Well, yeah. I mean my friends and family aside, and 95% of the Eels fans on this forum aside, you go to Parra Stadium to watch the team play and...Seriously, it's like your own version of "Deliverance".
