I didn't get laughing gas or anasthesia (is that the same thing?) so I was awake for the entire process. They just numbed up my jaw and got to work. My wisdom teeth grew in super straight, they told me that was weird. They also said it was weird how early they came in. Anyway, they went in, cut open the gum if the tooth was still stuck in there (one was), pulled it out and sewed it back shut. Twice more (I still have one wisdom tooth, teehee) and I was done. Bam. I had to get a few stitches in one of the places because that particular tooth was so goshdarn big, but whatev. The whole thing only took about 30 minutes.
Oh, and I didn't swell up when it was over.
At all.
I did have to keep gauze in my mouth for a few hours afterwards because I was bleeding so much, but after that, I got nothin'. :P
Hmm, I just realized I should've asked them if I could've taken my rejected teeth home with me so I could've put them under my pillow for monies...
