i got all 4 of my impacted wisdom teeth removed on july 2, 2009. i had a good experience. it didn’t hurt. no major bleeding. i only took 2 hydrocodone after the surgery and of course the antibiotic for a week. my main problem was the swelling which went down in about 4 days.
lingual split technique is the easiest, fastest and least traumatic technique of third molar removal. Most of the impacted teeth can be extracted within 5 minutes.Distolingual wall of the socket is splited and the tooth is elevated lingually.
I was absolutely terrfied to get all four of my impacted wisdom teeth out. Apparently as I was falling asleep, I kept saying “Don’t start yet, I am still awake!” I was so scared that I would still be awake throughout the procedure and that I would feel everything. I can say that I was absolutely 100% knocked out. I don’t remember a thing…Especially this video! (taken by my incredibly sneaky, yet amazing Husband!)
