I had 2 wisdom tooth 🦷 🦷 removed today and I went under IV sedation, I knocked out so fast, dont remember anything. Im a highly/extreme anxious person. If I did, so can you!!! God is with us! I couldn’t sleep last night because of the fear but its not worthy. Say a prayer, trust in God and enjoy your nap!

The biggest thing I wish I took into consideration was the recovery. I spent all of my time being so nervous with the procedure, and the next week wishing I had made better plans like this. If you’re getting yours done soon, seriously do not be scared of the procedure, it will literally feel like 5 seconds.. plan about your recovery!

Lovely video😀🙌🏼🤗 I leave the tips if you want copy and paste on your notes: 1. aquaphor on lips 2. towel on pillow 3. change gauze every 20-30 min (until bleeding stops) 4. no spitting for a week 5. ask the office for a syringe 6. get lots of rest 7. ibuprofen 600-800 + antibiotics 8. drink a lot of protein for recovery + fuel 9. ice 20 min on, 20 min off 10. with a SOFT toothbrush 11. take lots of vitamins & minerals 12. probiotics to help gut (esp. when taking antibiotics) 13. make sure to find ways to add fiber 14. high speed blender is our bff (vitamix) 15. high protein + high calorie smoothies 16. nutritional yeast is a complete protein + vitamin / minerals 17. pain is temporary :) still enjoy life 18. collagen to aid recovery 19. it's okay to bring your own food 20. pour smoothies to-go 21. must eat everything lukewarm (7 days to be safe) 22. avoid grain for 2 weeks 23. no exercise until you feel ready (i can't run yet but can move around)

Girl you are so lucky to have that man helping you and there for you! That's true love right there! 🖤

Thank you so much for making this video and sharing, Maya ♡ I really appreciate the tips and your raw and honest experience. May you recover quickly!

So encouraged to see this! Super nervous to get mine out in a few days. Def hard to slow down and put life on pause. Also love your little cross tat and commitment to faith!!

I just went through my wisdom teeth removal this past October (last month) and it didn't even cross my mind to come back here and relay my experience (because it honestly wasn't half as bad as I was expecting). My top two were pointed diagonally backwards, and my bottoms were growing in horizontally toward the front. They were erupted, but I was still considered "high risk" for nerve damage given how much they had grown in. My oral surgeon was fantastic, and I had all four out in about 30 minutes. If you have the option to be knocked out, go for it. Its so calming, and you wake up as if nothing happened. The gauze comes out usually in the first 6 hours, as long as bleeding has subsided (which it usually does without concern). The only tough part about recovery is ensuring you eat the proper foods to not get stuck in the holes lol. If you follow the steps given to you by your oral surgeon, you'll be back to business as usual in a week. As far as pain is concerned, see if your doctor can prescribe you a strong anti-inflammatory to be taken 30 minutes before your procedure. Additionally, the meds they give you after are decent. Pain-wise you wont be in any sort of life-altering discomfort. You'll have a little jaw tenderness, and should have minimal swelling if you follow the anti-inflammatory schedule. TL;DR - It's gonna be fine. Honestly, get it over with and you'll wonder what all the fuss was about. I put it off for 15 years then finally got it done. Once theyre out, you dont need to go through it again.

Just wanted to say thank you for this video! I watched it the night before my extraction and it helped calm my nerves.

Watching this while preparing for my wisdom tooth extraction. I'm having the coronectomy to avoid nerve damage on the bottom teeth. Thanks for sharing your experience.

I finally got 4 of my wisdom teeth removed and opted for the anesthesia. I just kick myself because I found out the person I was SUPPOSED to trust to drive me home and be there for the surgery stole money off of my debit card while I was under getting surgery! I am hurt emotionally over this incident and physically because well getting ur wisdom teeth removed is painful. I am happy I got to see what a NORMAL recovery is supposed to be for this. I spent the day stressing going to the bank and police department to fill out reports. I had to live through your experience just to feel a little bit better and not cry 🥺. Thank you.

My experience so far - hope this helps anyone getting their wisdom out Day 1- just before the torture-Eat a big meal before surgery as if your on death row. Mine was extracted by local aesthetic. Lots of tugging and a grown man ripping my cheek apart! (Literally) took around 30mins to extract 1 tooth. No pain during surgery- just VERY uncomfortable and felt a ton of pressure. Kids, if you never taken drugs well now is your time to shine! I took pain killers an hour after surgery as pre caution and took pain killers every 4 hours. The bleeding didn’t stop for 6 hours after surgery so went back to the dentist, they checked it and said it’s nothing to worry about. REMEMBER to use a WET gauze for 30mins & then leave the gauze out and see if it clots on its own. Worked a treat for me On tonight’s delicious menu: soup cooled down, water, yogurt. - force yourself to shove some baby like food down! Later that evening I had sore throat and face started to swell like a balloon. Used ice on cheeks. The bleeding went down during the night on its own. No beauty sleep, I slept upright, which was very uncomfortable. Buy a travel neck pillow! Day 2- Prepare to look like Quagmire or as if you had botched jaw filler! Sore throat but no pain. Got a fever, used wet cold towel on my head throughout the day. Nasty blood taste in mouth but no active bleeding.. Fine wine and dine: porridge, rice pudding, ice cream, soup and sipped on lots of water throughout the day. Been taking pain killers every 6 hours through out the day. I managed to brush some of my pearly whites very carefully, Avoiding the site of extraction . (This made me feel better) Beauty sleep was better than the night before but still uncomfortable & kept waking up. Slight pain 4/10 at night. Day 3 - Wednesday - still rocking the botched jaw filler look. throat is very sore, voice is gone, blocked nose, headache. Think I got a cold. Fever has gone down. Nasty taste in mouth. Done salt and water rinse (check on YouTube how to). Meal of choice: soft foods, drank the whole ocean, cold matcha tea. VERY IMPORTANT-salt rinse after each meal- and after brushing Only taken 2 pain killers. Pain level is like when you bite into your cheek. Day 4- woohoo, survived the worst-treat yourself to a lush spa in your shower and wash those greasy locks! blotched jaw filler still intact. Still got a cold and slight cough. I Used Vicks in hot water and breathed in the steam to clear the mucus. Slept like a baby- but now got bad neck pains (due to sleeping upright) On tonight’s menu: Wonderful soup, mash, lots of water, and tub of ice cream! Now in rehab & taken no pain killers. Still brushing my teeth like a 1 year old. Challenged myself and even tried a bit of flossing, jaw hurts so can’t open mouth that wide For day 9 onwards (or when you start eating solid foods) - buy a irrigatoring syringe (eBay, Amazon) you will need to use this for the next month onwards to clean and flush out food particles that get stuck in your wisdom hole

Thanks for sharing your experience! Really enjoyed watching ❣

You barely swelled! I'm so jealous! I love that you showed all of your meals. When I got mine out in September, I survived on smoothies, applesauce and cottagecheese. Healing wasn't too bad at home, but once I had to return to college, it was annoying not being able to eat what others ate and having to constantly flush my holes.

I’m so thankful for this video! Really enjoyed watching your experience. Getting all 4 of mine out soon and being completely knocked out, pretty scared but your video helped💜.

This was a joy to watch! I just got my wisdom teeth out this morning. Thanks for all the meal ideas! God bless!

i just had my two bottom wisdom teeth extracted (as they were growing horizontally) & your video truly helped me out during recovery 😭
