    Does depend, but do get ready for a few days of not talking much and a week or two of soup (or baby food!!)
    There are horror stories of dry sockets and nerve damage, but I think the surgeon must mention all possible outcomes, even the very unlikely ones.... I was fully recovered after about 10-12 days I think.

    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.

    One week on from having mine done and my mouth still feels a bit odd and my face is a still a bit swollen (albeit nowhere near as bad as it was on the day after the surgery) but it's not been a problem with my work.

    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.

    I'd also advise getting the sedation - I'd never done Valium before so I thought I'd give it a try when it was on offer. Great stuff

    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.
