Wisdom tooth needs to be gone

I posted in the 18-25 forum too but I need to make an appt ASAP with an oral surgeon ! What was ur experience getting it pulled while being pregnant (I'm 24w) because if being pregnant I can't use Iv or that gas stuff only numbing injection! I'm so scared of the pain and being conscious during the whole thing. Please tell me ur experiences!!

I woke up in surgery... It was a bad experience but I agree it depends on how is coming in. If it's straight shouldn't be a problem if it's on its side like mine they have to break it to get it out but I was awake thru half my surgery unintentionally

Ftm omg I remember that pain!  Ugh I was so miserable! They put me under so we're gonna have diff experiences but once I got em out it was soooooo worth it! Jus stock up on jello, applesauce, toast , mashed potatoes,cuz baby still needs to eat even though its gonna be hard for a while. Jus follow all the drs didirections cuz drysocket is the worst!

I have a huge cavity in my bottom wisdom tooth and decay in the top wisdom tooth on the same side (left) it's so painful. I'm terrified ofvttrvremoval pain. But it can't get much worse than it already is...right?

Some times they won't pull wisdom teeth without putting you to sleep, depends on how they are growing in, if they are not giving you any pain then they will want to wait till u have baby, but 2nd trimester is best to have any dental work done. Good luck..
