And so my wisdom tooth is causing me pain again. Every three to four months it will swell and cause my cheeks to be bitten or rubbed against the tooth.
Decision to be made – remove or not remove?
Well, have been thinking about it since the first time it started hurting till I cannot eat last April 2010. And there after it hurts three times which was not as serious as the first. If you face the same problem. It hurts because it is inflame so try mouthwash. I use Oral B mouth wash. It prevents further swelling and kills bacteria.
Anyway to prevent future suffering, I’m leaning towards getting it removed and so the first thing I worry about besides losing a tooth is WHAT DO I EAT AFTER EXTRACTION??? Or more like WHAT CAN I EAT???
*google goolge*
Ice cream
Youghurt
Mash potatoes
Applesauce
Milkshake
Some say no hot/warm food. So basically first day only cold food.
No use of straws to suck as it might cause further bleeding.
No hot food…not so much of a problem but looks like most food which are cold are sweet.
Don’t get me wrong. I lurrrve ice cream and yoghurt and everything ice blended cold BUT to make them as meals….
Hmm…I like my main meals salty, followed by sweet…
And for the next 4 days to a week, most advice to take soft diet.
*decisions decision*

no need to extract, just gargle with listerine maybe once a week and you’ll be fine. i still have mine.
eh serious or not… I noticed though that when it swells and I immediately use oral b mouth wash it goes away very fast.
not sure if i should take another chance coz been getting it like four times since it started last year.
opps… sorry, didn’t realize you replied. yes, i was serious. mine is like long term cost la coz have to do it every few months. yours permanent solution.
