OUCH!!! How do you know if you have dry socket? My Jaw is killing me and I just got the teeth out 2 days ago.

i made a thread about this a few months ago, xD. it was a week of Hell and i thought i had developed gum disease. i got it at a rather late age in my life however. Orajel just adds a soothing tingle to the pain, but does not help to rid of it...

i hope ONE is enough for me.

i still have minor toothaches, some occuring in the same area where the wisdom tooth sprouted.

I'm hardcore, I'm letting mine grow.

Right now.

smurfing ow. Whilst they're coming through the gums they make eating and yawning really, really painful. But still, the one that's come through furthers only hurt for a couple of days, so I don't think it'll be too bad overall.

I still have mine. they never fully came in but they don't really cause problems, as far as I know.

wtf is that?

Dry socket? ...Drink water?

I enjoyed getting my wisdom teeth out. I got happy drugs and BJ brought my ice cream and my mom made me mashed potatos. I vomitted them right back into the bowl though. And my mom had to dump the bowl in the toilet. And I could hear her gagging. And it was funny.

I'm glad I swallowed my iced tea before reading this.

They're molar teeth so far back that they ruin the way your jaw fits.

I have 3 wisdom teeth, and I have to get them out before I go to college in August.

oh...

[Shlup]

They usually start growing in during your mid to late teens. I think most people get them out when they're 18.

Whenever someone talks about their wisdom teeth, I cringe. Sounds so nasty.

I don't know if mine have come in or if I got them pulled or what, though. I don't know why I don't know. My memory is going.

o rly?

thanks for the info

I'm not sure about dry socket, but trust me, your jaw will be sore for a while. When I had mine removed about two years ago, it hurt for about a week and a half. However, I had all four removed at once, so that may have done it.

Here's some info on dry socket.

I just got one or both of my 16 year molars. It was painful and took ages, but orajel made it happy.
