    Odd. I was thinking about posting today. I have a consultation tomorrow where I am going to have Xrays to get my bottom two wisdom teeth extracted as they are impacted. Not fun.

    Let me know how it goes!

    I don't think you need more than the usual calories but you do need more protein for healing. Its not as bad as you think and healing is quick. Green smoothies will be your friend. They may tell you no straws for a while.

    Good and fast healing to you!

    Been there and it was a rough ride, just kick back and eat plenty of Vicodin!

    dont stress over it. I had this done last yr, its a 45 minute procedure, u wake up, eat a cookie, and go home. you sleep the rest of the night and by the next day you can use tylenol or motrin for the pain and eat apple sauce, protein shakes, etc.

    Will do! And best of luck with yours. I'm sure we'll both soon be back up and at it!

    And thanks again everyone for your suggestions,words of wisdom, and encouragement.

    I'm having all of mine removed next Friday! Good luck, first of all! Second of all, you won't be eating much at all, so I wouldn't worry about it ;)
