I was honestly bracing myself for the worst horror stories... but um, turns out my wisdom teeth extraction went way smoother than expected. Minimal swelling, pain manageable with basic meds, and I'm already eating soft tacos again lol. Anyone else had a surprisingly chill recovery?
Yeah, mine was pretty smooth too, though I did have a bit more swelling than you described. Honestly, the worst part for me was just the anxiety beforehand—spent way too much time reading horror stories online, haha. Pain-wise, ibuprofen was enough, and I was back to scrambled eggs and mashed potatoes by day two. Guess it really depends on the person...or maybe we just lucked out? Glad yours went well!
Mine wasn't terrible, but not exactly smooth sailing either. Had a weird numbness linger longer than expected, kinda freaked me out a bit. But yeah, anxiety beforehand was def worse than the actual procedure...maybe ignorance really is bliss, haha. Glad you guys had it easy though!
