32 Thoughts I Had When I Was Getting My Wisdom Teeth Surgery

In This Article:

After recently getting all of my wisdom teeth out, I thought I should write about my thoughts during the process, which are some things that they forget to mention in the pamphlet they give you.

1. How is the first available appointment four months away??

Between college breaks, vacations, and not to mention the surgeon's schedule, the scheduling part might just be the hardest part.

2. I'm not nervous at all

I mean like guys, I already have four wisdom teeth in my mouth, could it get worse? Yes.. it can

3. I only need to come ten minutes early?

Ten minutes early to surgery? I mean I like what you are doing here doctor, but are you sure you don't want some more time?

4. Wait, my Mom doesn't come back with me?

..Uh, excuse me?

5. This kind of just seems like a regular appointment

6. Why is everyone so relaxed?

I appreciate the confidence, but hello you will be tearing teeth out of my head in a couple minutes, let's show some emotion here people.

7. Oh, goodnight?

I did not get the countdown that they give people in the movies..

8. *Wakes up* Are my teeth even out?

9. Is my tongue still here?

10. I should probably stick my fingers in just to be sure

11. Yikes, no need to yell at me nurse

I just don't see what the big deal is.. What is going on??

12. You mean I need to get up now? I don't think I can even see straight

13. I feel no pain right now

14. Hey everyone in my recents on Snapchat, WHAT’S UP!!!

15. “Mom, I just need an iced coffee… like right now”

Thank god for Starbucks and their new lids without the straw!

16. Are my teeth going to be bloody forever?

Uhh.. can whitening strips fix this?

17. Time to take the gauze out… yeah not pretty

18. “Mom, I’m going to need you to feed me my jello”

19. I guess I could use a short nap.. Or a six hour one, who knows

20. I take back that no pain comment right about now

21. I wish I could go back to the numb and slightly drunk phase of this experience

22. Wait, my mom recorded that car ride? AND it’s on Facebook?

Eh, at least I can watch what I will never remember.

23. Ice cream for breakfast, lunch, and dinner was my childhood dream, we are now thriving

24. Two hours later... my friends were not dramatic… this is no fun at all

25. I guess it is a good time to watch the entire Twilight series

26. Oh God, I think I’m going to puke

Turns out 24/7 ice cream is not good for the stomach.. Neither is not eating before taking your medicine. The lesson has been learned.

27. Okay, everything is okay, I am OKAY

Just need to fake it until you make it.

28. Dissolvable stitches??? Then why do I feel them popping out??

29. Well, we need to put a pep in the recovery step, I have plans to attend to

Yeah, these plans got cancelled.

30. I think I will try to get a workout in today, I’m feeling pretty good!!

What a mistake.

31. I need to practice chewing before going out into public.. Yikes

32. Eh, screw it, I’m going out!!


All in all, it is not the end of the world getting your wisdom teeth out. As long as you give yourself time to rest and heal, you should be ready to eat more than ice cream within a week. Unless you prefer not to.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
