What a Pain

Wow, I wish I had known not to wait until 26 to have my wisdom teeth out. Pain is out of this world and  I have always had a high tolerance for pain. Doc said as you get older your roots curve and start fusing to your jawbone. Nice, I know. He also told Chris he meant to save him some roots to look at. Um, gross, I'm glad he forgot about that detail. The only good thing is that they did stitch my holes up with stitches that dissolve. I have been taking my pain medicine like prescribed and it makes is bearable. It's gross, but I keep trying to open my mouth to look at them, but my jaw won't open that wide to see all the way back there. I think once all of this is said and done, I will feel much better with my teeth not hurting all the time. Sunny days to come...

Saw your sight at Nestwork! What a cute blog! My husband also had his wisdom teeth at 26 and it was bad. His were curved so bad the doctor told him he by far had the hardest wisdom teeth to remove ever! But it gets better! (I say this at the age of 26, refusing to ever have mine removed! They have never even broken through the skin though)
