Then a whole lotta shit happened for 20 minutes which I must have blanked out of my recent memory. I know there was drilling, a whole lotta plucking, scraping, cutting of the gums, sucking and stitching.

Now I’m on some painkillers (pontalon) , antibiotics, and biting on some gauss to wait for the bleeding to stop. I’m also waiting for the anaesthetics to wear off so I can feel the full pain of the surgery to come in the next 2-3 days. There’s also the swelling.

I guess this was a neccessary procedure, considering that my wisdom tooth was growing sideways into my normal teeth (which would cause them to decay later on)

What’s the point of wisdom teeth anyway ? Maybe I’m too stupid and undeserving to have wisdom teeth that grow properly ? Why am I bitching so much ? Is it the painkillers ?

Anyways, some reminders for myself:

• No chewing on the right side ( duh )
• Replace Gauss every 15 minutes
• Saturday , wash mouth with salt
• Put ice on swelling
• Complete antibiotics course
• Take painkillers as neccessary

One final thought:

I bet bears don’t have this problem
