Snurfle...mrmrm... mmbl...*drool* (I can't talk)
Just got back from the dentist. They cleaned and polished...and then Novocained (or whatever the hell they use these daysed) the shit out of me and pulled my wisdom teeth because they were impacted. Now my mouth is sore and my jaw feels like a bag of sand. I'm starving but I can't eat anything because it all falls down my shirt. x(

1. Just wait until the novacaine wears off and you can actually feel it...

3. Oh yeah, that happened last time I had serious dental work done.

I had eight (maybe it was nine...I don't remember) fillings...after two hours it was like I had lockjaw and my teeth were full of Plaster of Paris. Ouch. x(

2. Is your face swollen yet?
You could end up looking like a chipmunk, and I think the Lounge will agree when I say we need pictures. :D

10. Actually it's more of a state of not being able to feel anything at all.

7. Eat soft food, and wear a towel on your lap. :)

I'm sorry you're having a tough time. I remember getting all four of my wisdom teeth out at the same time, one week before I started college. My parents must have been particularly malicious at that point.

But the pain shouldn't last long, and you hopefully won't starve. :hug:

9. I tried yogurt and I couldn't find my lower lip.
I thought it was my tonuge and it fell out all over my lap. :rofl:

13. Been there, done that.
The worse is if you are a smoker and try to smoke a cigarette. It just falls out of your mouth.
