Pinup Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 how long is the "dr. doolittle cheeks" syndrome supposed to last ? i look like a hamster. an angry one. waking up from the operation was quite a sight, i'm sure the nurses got a kick out of me explaining that "i wath aouaouaouaouaaough ?" so i guess this thread's topic is : share wisdom on the whole wisdom teeth thing. DID your life turn into an intersperse between crumbled meringue, yogurts and painkillers ? are there any mutant mother fuckers whose teeth fell right in place ? my dentist said you were the evolution of humanity. maybe you should all evolve down into some deep pit. but i love you all.

MrChupacabra Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Damn man, you're still hamstered out? You were complaining about that damn near a full day ago. Hope you get better soon, but until then enjoy the pills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!@#$% Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 i don't believe in the dentist (although i am very keen on dental hygeine) my wisdom teeth came in when i was about 18, and would recede, and come back, and recede, and come back, bursting through the gums each time, creating quite an arresting discomfort. thanks anbesol. i just nursed em with ice cream whenever they felt shitty, never had em removed. it's been about two years since they did that. so i put up with about ten years of wisdom ripping my gums open and it finally went away.

gatita Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Mine are coming in. First it didnt hurt now I wake up feeling like someone punched my lower jaw. Sore.. soooooore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunm Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Well, i had all four teeth removed last year and it kicked ass. My cheeks didn't swell at all and by the second day i was eating cheesburgers down at the Smokehouse in Berkeley. Yeah, i guess i was one of the lucky ones. Did they give you a valium before you went in for the surgery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my friend had really bad ones and they cured within a couple of days. I'm scared to get em pulled. I'm waiting as looooong as possible. their pretty much all grown in. My dentist said their a haven for cavities tho. Hope you feel better! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinup Posted July 14, 2004 Author Share Posted July 14, 2004 LENS, i hate you very much. ;) And they gave me several things, they knocked my mouth out and i was also in some kind of twilight sleep where i was aware of the drilling in my mouth but would start hallucinating about hills of vivid colours now and then. I wasn't actually aware of when i passed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't actually aware of when i passed out. S'cool man, I'd hate me too if i was you. My nose was fitted with a weird respirator and they started channeling nitrous into me. Next i was given some funky I.V and told to take three real deep breathes (I didn't even get halfway through the second one) and WHAM-O! out like a light I remember passing the fuck out and hallucinating/wild colors/crazy visions/etc... and before i knew it, i was woken up. If it makes you feel any better, i ruined a pillow at home when i passed out and drooled blood all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fr8lover Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 i got mine out a couple months ago and still have giant holes in the bottom of my mouth in which annoying amounts of food collect and have to be swished out. hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they give you a valium before you went in for the surgery? You cuntface, my brother was the exact same way. He was eating lamb chops the same day he got them taken out. I on the other hand was a complete zombie for about a week. All I did was lay on the couch watching the cartoon network from getting up to going to bed. I didn't eat a think for like 5 days. I had chipmunk cheeks for like a week, then when I could finally get up and the swelling had gone down, it was another week or so until I could actually clench my teeth together. It was the shittiest week of my life. Oh, and they didn't put me under, they only used that anaesthetic in a needle, so I had the joy of being awake for the whole preceedings, hearing the cracking and the horrible taste of blood gushing down my throat. Plus, they only did one side at a time. Which means I have to go back and get the other side taken out as well. Yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinup Posted July 14, 2004 Author Share Posted July 14, 2004 yeah LENS, i had the thing up my nose as well. i also did some awesome blood drooling on my pillow as i got home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinup Posted July 14, 2004 Author Share Posted July 14, 2004 Originally posted by Dr. Dazzle I must but conclude only the cool people get the chipmunk cheeks. On a brighter note, now i know what i'd look like if i were fat. It's rather quite endearing in a chubby guy kind of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GucciCondom Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 My dentist was taking x-rays and shit and she said that there is no sign of wisdom teeth. Maybe I magically never produced any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CinchedWaist Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 :) why, thank you. Me and you are just too alike, pinup... Thats why you think so. gucci- wisdom teeth are a current evolutionary process. Some people don't get em, some people do. Humans don't need them anymore so we're in the process of getting rid of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinup Posted July 14, 2004 Author Share Posted July 14, 2004 In addition to being an 'unevolved', i think i'm actually being downgraded to hamster status. Who wants to adopt me ? I'll keep my cage clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CinchedWaist Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 you know i'll adopt you pinup. yes, as long as you keep your cage clean i'll give you celery as a treat......only on saturdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunm Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Pinup....the single most annoying thing you will have to deal with in the whole recovery process is getting bits of food up in the bloody holes where your teeth used to be. you have to be straight up militant about keeping those holes clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinup Posted July 15, 2004 Author Share Posted July 15, 2004 Well well... just woke up. Cheeks a little less swolen but i still look like i'm stocking my food. Thanks for the feedback, Lenski, i try to be careful with my holes but i don't want to feel them too much either. In addition to the antiseptic and painkiller and whatever that other pill they give me is, they give me this mouthwash which deals with the food in bloody wholes i think/i hope. My teeth were not actually fully grown, only the roots were taken out. Even though these days are pretty much sucking for me, i suggest everyone get this done. I guess i'll turn out quite relieved in a week or so. Also, this way, i can all make fun of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fermentor666 Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 I had three of them taken out with nitrous and novacaine. It hurt but the nurse was a cutie so I didn't mind that much. The nitrous made me pretty removed from what was going on even though it still hurt like crazy. I was stoned enough of the stuff to try to make the nurse laugh by trying to be funny. Then after it was done I went to the bathroom and saw how big my face was and realized how stupid it must look to be high on nitrous, flirting, and having cheeks the size of peaches. The novacaine shots actually hurt the worst, I felt those right to the bone. The swelling went down after a couple of days for me, basically I just sat around and listened to the baseball playoffs, sketched, watched TV, and played video games. Oh and I had a lot of percocet, too, that helped with the pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
