Just checking in real quick on this Monday morning. It’s my day off and I am waiting for my appointment time (in 10 mins) to get my 4 wisdom teeth extracted, but also to get an “abutment” in preparation to have a fake tooth put in a spot where I’m missing a molar from like 8 years ago.
Ahh, teeth. I truly have a phobia of dentists, dental surgeons, all of them. But I have my soup ready-liquids, diet 7up, and the entire next 2 days to recover.
The nice (or not nice) thing is that none of the 4 wisdom teeth are impacted, they are all fully out, so I am not going to be put under-just getting s laughing gas and Novocain. This worries me somewhat too though because Novocain doesn’t always work exactly as it should, and starts wearing off sometimes during longer procedures.
I think posting this has given me more anxiety than I had before. Lol, oops! Wish me luck!

Hope the extraction is painless and you have a quick recovery.

I haven't had mine removed. My best friend was going to get hers removed. I can't remember if she did. You will be fine.

Every time I had a wisdom tooth removed (one, one, then two, not all four at once) I got Tylenol 3 and a buzz. 
Best of luck to you.

the wisdom teeth ensures that man's origins are from apes. When the wisdom teeth appears it is painfull. When it has to be extracted then also it is painful
