I had 4 out (2 impacted) a few years back.  My mouth was swollen for a few days, but the pain was negligible.  You'll be fine.

Same, and I didn't take a single painkiller (except what they gave me while they were operating).

Mine were pretty nasty for about 2 weeks.  In addition to the pain they packed this gauze medicated with clove in there for two weeks....  It's all I could taste.  And it's NASTY.
I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!

Our species really annoys me.

Heh, all I could taste was blood for a few days. Also nasty!

..., as well was some antibiotic.
That's one funny thing, my dentist (or whatever the surgeon is called) was against the use of unnecessary antibiotics. He gave me a strict diet to follow for the week or so after I had them removed, which avoided things that would promote the growth of bacteria, and I was fine.

I think my surgeon prescribed antibiotics, but told me that I didn't need to take them unless I started to have problems.  He told me the usual things not to eat (stuff through a straw, etc), but didn't restrict any of the foods based on any criteria other than "it'll tear up your mouth", I don't think.  It all went pretty smoothly.

I went to school right after my operation, doped out of my mind on the gas they feed you. I took a test and went home.

It ain't shit.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

haha yea, i got all four out at once too and was fine. i didn't need to take the codine pills at all. the only bad thing i experience was when the gas they gave me wore off - it hit me with cold sweats, and i got way light headed. it sucked.

I need to schedule an appointment to get my teeth cleaned.  I'm sure they will tell me that I need the wisdoms out :(.  The top two have already "come out."

I forget what now, exactly, but he said to avoid dairy for sure. And for drinks, he said stick to clear(ish) stuff (water, 7-up, ginger ale). Dunno why. :)

I had 3 out (the fourth was MIA) - the pain from the surgery was negligible, but I got a dry socket which was pretty painful. I'd nock myself out with a vic, and wake up 3 hours later. It took about 10 days to fully recover (to work my way off the vics).

They put me out for the surgery, and when I woke up I looked around and asked how long it would take for the stuff to kick in. About five minutes later, they were walking me to the car, and I nearly fell down twice. It was weird 'cause I felt perfectly fine, but didn't have the energy to maintain balance.

My god, suck it up. I had seven teeth taken out, and I didn't take a single painkiller. Of course, I wasn't swollen much either.. I was perfectly capable of running around and talking and eating solids pretty much right when I got home.. my folks didn't let me, of course. Haha

I don't either. At least, I don't think I do. Would I know?
errr... something like that...
