impacted wisdom tooth

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
I'm having an impacted wisdom tooth out on thursday under local anaesthetic and i'm absolutly petrified! Never had any surgery or dental work before, and being a student nurse you'd think i'd know better than to worry about it! Anyone had this procedure done before? Your stories and experiences would be appreciated. thanks x

    I had all four of my wisdom teeth out in December 2005. It was nothing like as bad as people make out. I had a general though as I was having all four done at once.

    It's boring and uncomfortable, nothing worse than that.

    If you like listening to music type your ipod/mp3player/walkman along, they may well let you listen to it.

    See if you can get someone else to give you a lift home, just takes the pressure off.
