Ye auld wisdom tooth

Post by Badfellow »

Having another one of the worthless bastards wrenched from my skull tomorrow morning. This is as good a reason as any to spend a few days washing down pills with fancy French cognac and talking like Phillip Seymore Hoffman on a dose of elephant tranquilizer. It'll be like a three day vacation, exept for the pain part and the fact that I'll be headed nowhere in a hurry.

This is gonna be FUN!

What fun. On your return home, please make a point to try ordering a pizza. It will be frustrating for you to try to communicate the simplest of requests. However, it will make for a good story later. Perhaps you should do some skyping too.

Odds are good I will be available for some slobbering, drugged-up (like Elvis style) Skype. Do you think a NutriBullet will handle a whole slice of deep dish pizza? Or do I need to add some red wine?

You know what they do when they take out your wisdom teeth? They install tiny receiver/transmitters; with each one, the signal gets stronger. Depending on one's mental acuity, each one gets yo closer to mind control drone-mode.

I had dry socket after having all four of my IMPACTED wisdoms extracted at once when I was a junior in high school. Yeah, that's right IMPACTED. Meaning in addition to kneeling on my chest to gain leverage to yank these entrenched buggars from my jawbone, they had to cut open my gums to do so as they hadn't sprouted yet. So SUCK IT UP, MISTAH SISSIES!

The fortune of the dry socket, and the curvy syringe they give ya to wash the nasty gum canyon out is that it comes in handy for injecting booze into fruit.

Flash forward to my year as an RA in undergrad. The drinkin' age was 19 - 18 year olds grandfathered in fall semester - but the age was to change to 21 come January something or other - no grandfather - what's a new drinker to do?? Welp, when you're an RA, newly illegal to drink and you're stuck in a staff meeting with an RD who's got a broomstick shoved so far up her keister she's got better posture than anyone in boot camp - you use your dry socket syringe to inject fruit with booze and eat it right in front of her during the meeting. Yes, yes, I know, I know. I'm a world class American revolutionary on a scale of Thomas Paine or, at the very least, W.C. Fields.

Thanks, Nurse Ratched.


And thank you, stoopid tooth, for a great week of being stoned like a crab on prescription meds. Now it's back to reality (ie. the bar) and making my healed socket pay for all the quality smoking time I've missed out on.

DRYs are bad, mmmkay?

My own lower wisdom teeth grew in perpendicular to the ones closest to them. Yeah, yeah, lower wisdom. Sideways, perp.. etc etc

But listen, Dr. Chiseltooth told me he'd have to quarter them up with a minuscule bone saw. I think that's where Dremel's come from, or because of that.

At that point, the antibiotics had killed the pus, and the pain was manageable with sativa and of course, rum and Vicodin.

Now, because I was 17 and already had a high tolerance for medication, the nitrous oxide wasn't the up enough, and the Novocaine was taking a really long time. So he said, "Here. There a regulator on the tank, so you can't suffocate. But go ahead and hold onto this dial. Take as much as you need. Jeez."

It was on the tube to my nose.

Hey, of course I turned it up all the way. Ya know, to 11. I cranked up my Walkman and gripped the armrest with the free hand, but nothing will erase the sound of your bone getting sawed in your noggin by Dr Feelgood in Fresno.

Time to have a morning repast.

While I do not care for pills, and urge everyone to avoid what the Brits call "death by misadventure", when I had all four wisdom teeth removed in my mid-20s (a hammer and chisel were involved; the word "impacted" was heard prior to going under), by the third day I was prepared to resume my then-whiskey habit on top of the pain pills, whose name escapes me but which were quite potent. Was FUN.

btw fruit smoothies and ramen for the next month. Tortilla chips are not your friend at present.

My first stupid tooth removal was pretty interesting as the inflammation whatnot had spread so far the medication they put in me wasn't really kicking in (they put like 4 syringes of stuff in my gum and usually 2 are enough to make my face so numb it's hard to chew and talk). This one was despite having quite healthy dose of codeine in me already. However I decided to go for it anyway having wasted plenty enough of time there.

Well it turned out to be harder sort with the nerve splitting two ways pretty far under next teeth as well. Whole operation lasted for over an hour (they were not experts at doing this). During which the teeth had to be sawed in two and they had to wiggle those roots out. After this they didn't even give me antibiotics for some reason. This resulted in me picking up very high fever the following night and spending 3 days in bed after hauling what felt at 5 am half-dead body to the hospital.

Happy fun times overall. I quite vividly recall the pain induced sweating and the sound of the drill/saw during the operation.
Second one wasn't really an issue luckily enough.
