Fuck. Had one pulled a few years ago due to an infection but still had the other three. Went to the dentist last week for a cleaning and they gave me the bad news. Luckily was put under with anesthesia this time (last time was just a local) but was in and out in just over an hour. Now the healing begins. Take better care of your teeth y’all

Aww sorry to hear that
Its not a bad recovery for kids and teens but for us old folks it rakes a few weeks. Hopefully they gave you some good stuff for recovery!

if they aren't causing pain, i am suspicious of people having them removed because the dentist said to

Which is why I didn’t have them all removed previously. I have a big mouth (heh) so spacing was never an issue, and they weren’t impacted. But I was having some nonspecific tooth pain recently and after examination it was determined that it was deferred pain from 2 of my wisdom teeth that had cavities, confirmed by X-ray. So it basically came down to getting all 3 instead of 2 removed since I seem to be prone to issues there. Luckily the rest of my teeth seem to be okay!

got all of mine out at the same time a few years ago after one became abscessed (two were cracked). anesthesia was wild, felt like i blinked and it was over.
be careful with the dry socket risks, i was terrified of it so i ate nothing but liquid foods for like a month
rest up!

Got all 4 of mine removed at the same time at 18. One of the best decisions I’ve made.
