At least you will have a couple day to recover before the holidays. I got my out back when I was a teenager on the 23rd of December 🤣 Definitely not the best Christmas that year. Be sure to follow the heat and cold regimind and you should recover quickly.

git-gud14186yTrust me, the worst part are the days afterwards. Worst is relative though, it's not that bad overall.

jonii25346yI'm pretty sure they don't use Xanax as an anestetic, they only might give it to you extra if you're a really fearful patient who gets a panic attack just by walking in the street of the dentist.

Brolls31556yPfftft. You Americans and your anaesthetic when having wisdom teeth removed.
Over the pond, we get an injection (Novacaine I think) and that’s that, we get to experience the blunt force trauma that is tooth extraction, along with all the joyous crunching and snapping courtesy of bone conduction. -
@jonii That's me! I actually had one at just eh consultation, medium-severity. Just some shaking and other symptoms.

Update to everyone:
I am doing well. Much better than I expected; I am walking and talking and eating and playing video games as soon as I got home. Very drowsy and dizzy, and my new pain meds are probably gonna knock me out, but right now I am okay!
(Local anesthesia has not worn off yet so I am numb. My attitude may be very different in the future - about 5 hours) -
jeeper59666y@AlgoRythm the first solid food you eat after this will be absolutely amazing! I had a Burger King whopper and no burger can ever match it. It was glorious beyond description after weeks of mashed potatoes, apple sauce, and soup.
Wisdom teeth removal tomorrow morning. They're stuck up in there so they're putting me to sleep and really yanking on em. Gonna be out of action for a few days. Merry Christmas everyone!
I wish they gave me Xanax for a couple days in advance, not one hour in advance.
