I lost one wisdom last year and another one this year.

Like what the title says, yes I had my 2nd wisdom tooth extracted yesterday afternoon. I had 4-5 injections before the extraction, 2 antibiotics and 2 panadol. There were some other stuff he put on my gums to make it numb. So if you were to ask me if the extraction was painful, I would say no. It's because I couldn't feel anything. All I know is that he kept on drilling and drilling, then I could feel him taking out my wisdom tooth. It wasn't painful, but my neck, left cheeks and eyes were swollen. My eyes were so red I thought it looked like infection.

You know what was painful? The injections! I hated it. I've always hated injections. This time was much more scary although I've expected it since it was my 2nd time already. When I saw him took the injection near to my mouth, I closed my eyes. & every time he takes it out and when I open my eyes, he'll bring another one near to my mouth again. It happened 4 times. Horror much? :O Yea, bout the pain; I could feel the liquid flowing in my veins. I even felt it in my neck. Maybe that's why it's painful now.

There were no pain, just numbness when I went home. After a few hours, say like 2-3 hours later, the numbness wore off and the effect of the pain killer wasn't there anymore. So by then, I felt the pain and it was seriously painful! Not as painful as the last time I took out my 1st wisdom tooth but it was still painful!

Btw, am I suppose to avoid straws? My dental surgeon said I can use a straw but when I googled it, many websites said that I should't be using a straw because it will cause a dry socket.

On another note, my braces dentist said that it is possible to correct my bite/gap using the Damon braces provided I had my 2 wisdom tooth taken out. But according to my dental surgeon, he said it's quite impossible to correct my gap because it is quite a huge gap (8mm according to him) and I have abnormal bone structure. I have no idea what that is but I hope that the braces will work. I hope the pain and money is worth it. Surgery is definitely not an option for me. Reasons are it's costly and it'll be superrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr painful. It's a major surgery you see. Gosh.

*Prays hard!*

Now I look like I have a fishball stuck at the left side of my cheeks. Lol -.-
