A Little Wisdom

I guess I have put it off for as long as I can. Tomorrow I have to go to the dreaded oral surgeon and have my wisdom teeth taken out. Blah. My top right one is almost all the way out but it's growing at a strange angle, out toward my cheek. If it were growing down it wouldn't be a problem but of course it had to be difficult! So the top two will be removed and the bottom two will be checked to see if they can actually be taken out. The x-rays showed them being really close to a nerve and if could cause paralysis if part of my face. No bueno. So we will see how things go. Luckily I am going under general anesthesia otherwise I would be a major wreck! I absolutely *hate* going to the dentist, though it's gotten a little better over the last few years.
Wish me luck!

NO fun! Thank heavens they are knocking you out for it. I was awake while they pulled all four of mine out at once. I wouldn't recommend that to anyone.
