My dental surgeon said that getting it done on the Thursday was the best way to go. That way you only need to take a couple of days off work, take it easy over the weekend and back to work on the Monday. That worked for me.Quote:

I'd long been really quite worried about having to get my wisdom teeth out but it's not as bad as you might think. It's certainly not the most fun thing you can be doing but once it's done, it's done.

Our son was in really terrible terrible pain last night. It Woke him up in the middle of the night. I suppose it depends on how much bone gets broken when they remove them He had one that was really difficult one to get out.
I teach PE and Sport as a primary teacher. That may make it hard.Quote:
