My next medical

wrote

I did one on each side, upper jaw, on the same day, local anesthetic
only.
I didn't realize he was even done removing the first one, but the
second one took two people.
Next day? I was unable to go to school (military), so I and a friend
went up to Napa valley all day.

I had mine cut out, only three, and 2 of 3 had to be chiseled out. I was
back at work, for my warehouse job (college summer job) at 8 PM, that night.
No big deal.

Try having 2 removed then 2 weeks later having another 2 removed with just
local no gas!

When I was in the Navy, they yanked all 4 of mine... Nothing wrong with 'em,
but I was originally designated to go subs... Since subs don't have dentists
aboard, they yank the wisdom teeth as a precaution... Didn't make a ****in'
bit of sense... I told the doctor that with this type of logic, they would
amputate my arms and legs to ensure that I don't get them broken... Local
anesthesia (xylocain)... Walk back across base to the barracks, back to work
the next day...

He's only got 3 to remove, not 4...

Correct. My body is some strange sort of science experiment. God only gave
me 3 wisdom teath. Im opting to do all at once because as stated in a
latter post if I did one or two on the first trip, I probably wouldnt return
for the remaining.

At least you don't have six fingers or a tail!

Be sure to get some nice head shots, for Halloween picture
postcards.

Ice helps with the swelling and you will need the pain
killers for 2 or 3 days if the teeth are in solid and
require some major work. But it is not as bad as it was
years ago. Modern dentistry is almost painless, as long as
you can't hear the damn drill.

Dentist said, these days he doesn't see many 46 year olds with all of their
wisdom teeth. I've still got mine ...x(4).

As do I at 52. I was told by a dentist back when I was 17 to have mine
removed... could have had it paid for by CHAMPUS. But did I? Nooooooo..... Now
God only knows what it'd cost. I'm still resisting the urge.

So do I have to
put this on my next medical application as "Surgeries"?

I think I'd put it on the extended remarks space after Jan. 1, 2006:
Dr Primary Care - routine care. Then April 1, 2006: Dr Root Canal -
dental extractions. Something like that.

Or maybe not! I don't put dental or eyeglass doc visits down. Should
I?
