Just turned forty. My teeth are pretty straight. I just have some old, broken fillings from when I was a teenager that need replacement and also now need root canals & crowns on some of the worse ones. I don't know why so many people get the wisdom teeth removed all at once, but in my case I did it just to save this adjacent molar that needs the root canal and crown since the wisdom tooth was rubbing against it.
The second Tylenol with codeine is helping take the edge off the pain a little right now. I only ate breakfast and one protein shake today though, so I am probably going to be starving tomorrow. Hope I am able to move my jaw, because right now I am not eager to do anything more than let a little drool drip out every so often. Thanks for the well wishes everyone.
