Had all four pulled out a long time ago! Don't remember the cost- but what's that about anaesthetic!! Harden up, ya big blouse, I didn't need one- its all a state of mind- should save you a few bucks too!

I sorta thort that the drugs are like an added bonus!! Hell, I'm gonna hafta pay the first 5 hundie anyway so I might as well enjoy myself while I'm there.

Good luck, you won't know yourself once the pain has gone. Problems with teeth are guaranteed to make you grumpy.

As for the murder house in Willis Street, it is now flash apartments! I never went there for dental treatment myself, but in 1995 Wellington Polytechnic's School of Journalism was housed on the ground floor. The dental part still operated from one of the upper floors and we'd get busloads of kids coming for treatment. One day they were making a hell of a noise so one of my fellow students went out and said "STOP MAKING ALL THAT NOISE!" The kids just looked at him and carried on, so he asked if they were going to see the dental nurses. When they said yes, he said "Good, and I hope it FUCKING hurts!" That shut them up!

I would just like to state that I am NOT scared of needles-have given many units of blod over the years (and have the card to prove it)- loks like MSTRS is the one who's scared- I come home and he buggers off!

Well, today was the day. 10.00am check in for an 11.00am extraction. Got wheeled in. They put the pricky thing in my arm (like giving blood) he said "I'll give a pre-something or other and you'll feel a little drowsy" Which I did then I didn't notice the next 45mins coz I sorta blinked an' missed it. About 10mins after waking up I was feeling pretty chipper, although a little foggy - apparently I'm not allowed to operate heavy machinery today damnit! Wifey came and got me after her meeting (I was starting to piss people off coz I was bored) and got me home about an hour ago. Right now the local is starting to wear off and my jaw is a little sore, but apart from that I feel absolutely fine. Finally had some food (a protein shake) and about to have some scrambled eggs.
I would have done this ages ago if I'd known it was this piss easy!! Didn't get the good drugs tho'

[judgeshock]

Congrats for getting it done. It will only start to get better from here on in. At least you are no longer someone whos putting it off. I'm sure you can even offer advise as we all have to you.

[ManDownUnder]

Got mine gone a few years ago (like 2... I guess)

I only had three and had 'em all out in one go for the princely sum of $400 or thereabouts.

St Lukes 24 hour/emergency Medical Centre has a dentist practicing there. Actually he's a part time dentist (full time maxillofacial (face bone) surgeon).

Young guy, REALLY cool, and as good as they get. Highly recommended.

He gave me a sleeping pill (or two?) to take beforehand, and I rapidly adopted a "shot gives a hit" attitude... zip zing zap and all 3 are out. One of them was pretty bad too (apparently).

A bit of pain for a few days, as is normal with Wizzy teeth, but if I had to do it again, I'd be heading straight there

Just a curiosity but does anybody know the symtoms that tell you you need them removed?

[Bulldog]

Sure do, PAIN. Wisdom teeth do several things, they impact on your rear molers causing pain which can sometimes feel like it's your jaw. They can also sit right on nerves in your lower jaw and can cause inflamation and pain, they often come through the gum and become infected (regularly)

I know all this because I too put off getting my wisdon teeth out for about 4 years. I finally said enough is enough after the same wisdom tooth became infected for the 5th time.

I had all four out under general because I'll be damned if I want to hear or see the funky shit they do to get teeth out. Plus one of my lower ones was sitting right on a nerve.

Hows your swelling going Colapop? I was like a beach ball for about a week. I've got photos you wouldn't believe!

The relief you feel after having them done is outstanding and I highly recommend anyone having any sort of problems with them to get them out.

I paid top shelf for mine as I had it done by a 'noted' guy who apparently was 'the man' at doing them. Try $2500 people!!! Fuck it it was the best money I ever did spend.

[Waylander]

Fuck, may have to see if mine need to come out then. My whole throght(sp?) is sore exspecially around the upper left mollar in the back. It also seems to have rotated a bit so now is grinding against the inside of my cheek and the gap just behiind the tooth beneath it aswell. Can't fucking afford it though.

[Holy Roller]

I had two out during a dinner break then back to work. A bit sore for a while once the injection wore off.
