Its Like Pulling Teeth
 

Anyone else had the pleasure of getting teeth extracted?

I had 2 of my wisdom teeth pulled about 8 years ago, one at a time...

A couple days ago I had 1 of my other wisdom teeth (impacted) and the molar next to it pulled at the same time...they had to saw them in pieces and break them off...still hurts like a mo fo...but got some good Vicodin...

The hardest part was not smoking for 24hrs...haha

So I only have 1 wisdom tooth left, im not as wise as I once was...

Yes, have had a few extracted & yes, painfull stuff! As a smoker, I get what you are talking about but smoked during "recovery". I would gargle w/colloidal silver to kill any bacteria lurking. CS is a whole other thread though...couldn't live without it.

I once pulled one of my own baby teeth by putting a string around it and slamming the door. I hit the door with my head and the tooth was still in. I guess it wasn't as loose as I thought.

Does that count? :D

LOL imjustme I did the exact same thing when I was little, my head hit the door and the tooth was still there...I thought I was the only one...my sister still talks about it to this day she thought it was hilarious

Yeah I was real careful about the smoking, dry socket is the last thing I wanted...my step dad got one after his teeth were pulled...its been a week and im still only smoking a few a day cause its still sore...I got a nice yellowish bruise on the side of my face too...its real hot...the ladies love it...

Like Butch Coolidge? I went back in today and he had to take the stitches out manually but says its healing nicely...
