Wisdom teeth suck! I had most of mine removed years ago, except for this slow moving one that hadn't fully come through. Years later it eventually did, but hadn't become a nuisance until recently. During the downtime/waiting period for it, I had lost my health insurance and then got it back, but had yet to find a new dentist that would take my coverage. I suppose the pain I now suffer through at times, is a bit of reminder of why I should have gotten to that sooner.
Here my cheesy artist depiction of what I'm dealing with:



How the wisdom tooth ended up growing in like that, I don't know. The pain scale varies through a typical day rating anywhere from a 2 all the way to an 11, (if the scale was a 1-10, with ten being excruciating). I like to think I have a pretty good tolerance for pain, from past experiences, but this is definitely upping the bar for me. It's amazing how something so small can hurt so much, but I chalk it up to the amount of nerves and parts of the body it's interconnected to. Plus the fact the tooth is pushing into the rest of my teeth is making it more painful and creating headaches. In the meantime I've been doing my best to keep on keeping on at a more relaxed pace while taking pain relief meds when needed. I often visualize myself as a boxer (a common metaphor I like with life events) who's been knocked down, but isn't out. Just gotta keep fighting and be like "is that all you got?"

I can't get to a dentist til at least tomorrow, when I will begin a local search to find one who can take my insurance and hopefully do it for a reasonable rate. Of course, I also want to make sure it's a place that will handle it right, as paying less and having it messed up or done wrong would not be good. I'd love to get it done same day, as tomorrow is the only day I have free enough from my work schedule to make it happen. Otherwise, I'll get the next soonest date through a good dentist that covers all my bases. Hopefully all the cards will fall properly in a timely manner so I can get rid of the pain. Toothache pain is definitely not something to mess with or take lightly. Lesson learned.

Haha wow. Such a Picasso there. tongue
Yeah, be careful in choosing someone to yank that sucker out. My bf had a pretty terrible experience getting the remaining 3 of his pulled. Two of them went fine, but the third one...the doc didn't properly numb the area and he felt EVERY BIT OF IT. Ohhhh he was cussing so bad! Haha. But in all seriousness, hope it goes well for you and you get a dentist/oral surgeon with a decent brain.

Hahahaha, that picture is prefect. And best of luck with that, I have all mine in and pray they never have to be removed.
