I was put under IV sedation when I got all four of mine out, and I was in very little pain afterwards. Not even much swelling or bruising, either. (However, the 15-minute car ride from the surgeon's office to my house remains an utter blank.) I took a few doses of Percoset (a Vicodin equivalent...man, that **** messes you up...), but after that, regular Tylenol was more than enough. I think the key for me was using bags of frozen peas on either side of my face; they stay colder longer than an icepack, and they're perfect for conforming to the shape of your face. A little creative work with a piece of fabric meant that I could even keep them attached without having to hold them.
And no, before you ask, we didn't eat the peas afterwards.

I was supposed to have mine all removed before college, but i forgot.
Now all 4 have grown in like normal teeth (with the exception of i used to suddenly end up chewing on a severed chunk of gumms every so often).
Then again i'm at college so i havent bothered to take care of my teeth much. Yarr.

Have fun. My jaw was aching from a tooth or something.
One tooth looks a black on one side, as if rotting away. I'll have to get that checked soon. =S

Know how you feel man, but beware, I was allright for a few days with just the general stuff like soreness, but 4 days after the operation I came down with a 104 temp, a killer headache and vomiting caused by a secondary infection, so watch yourself man.

Yes, that is a sensible precaution. Now, as your doctor I'm afraid I'll need your housekeys, credit card details and lower intestine.wow that was pretty fooked wasn't it ?
