A query.

[melayneseahawk]

BDC entry delayed until after my ARTH paper is done, but I have a question for you folks:

For those of you who have had your wisdom teeth out, how long did you need to recover? I'm getting mine out in just over a week, and I need to arrange the taking off from work.

You'll be pretty much back to normal in a week. But the first three or four days are full of chipmunky, soup-eating, swollen, painkillery goodness. Fifth and sixth days it gets better and by the seventh you feel much better and look much less like you're trying to smuggle a football in your mouth.

It's a good time to sit down with some movies you've been meaning to watch.

(Best part of getting my wisdom teeth out was the super ibuprofin they had me take for a week. My hands didn't bother me for months afterward. It was awesome.)
