On Friday, January 14th, 2011 my wisdom teeth were taken out of my mouth. I would just like to say that while I have found that all the hype and hysteria around the subject of wisdom teeth is seriously exaggerated. While I was not nervous about the procedure, what I was slightly nervous about was the IV being inserted into my arm, and by the time that actually happened it was probably the easiest part. Like I said, the whole process is slightly exaggerated, from the chubby cheeks to the pain medication, at least in my particular circumstance. I did not feel loopy or high in any sense, and hardly felt drowsy; the only thing I appreciate the pain medicine for is what it is actually for: that throbbing pain in my jaw where there happens to be stitches and blood clots. But after this experience, I am now extremely grateful for the invention of Jello pudding, although it is safe to say I won't be craving it for a long while.
