Indeeeed. But as it is right now, I am in SO MUCH pain and am definitely regretting this. I can't even close my mouth all the way because the inside is too swollen, and can also barely open my mouth anymore then it is because my jaw is so sore.

 

i was leary of having mine removed, but now i can of feel silly for worrying about it...there was very little pain involved..the actual process didnt hurt at all, and there was onyl very minor residual pain afterwards...like i said, it felt like i had been in a fight and took one on the chin.

 

were any of you guys able to drive yourselves home after getting the teeth pulled?

 

Not me. I was put to sleep. It's clearly stated that if you are put to sleep then you need someone there to drive you home as well stay with you for the next 24 hours. I don't even rememember waking up or the drive home from the surgeon. Kinda scary...
