Ooh....I'll think of you during this time, Kathy! That's horrible! I've never even gotten my wisdom teeth in yet, (and I'm 20 years old!). But my dentist's told me I'd have to get them taken out 'bout as soon as they grew in! My mouth's kinda small...I guess that's why.
But ooh....that'll hurt for awhile. A good tip my mother's told me: Eat somewhat bland, soft food. Because it's being pulled out at the root, it'll hurt like the fires of down below with anything of a spicy nature. Mild salsa will taste like fire hot, get my drift?
That was learned from my mother telling me about the time she got two wisdom teeth pulled during one day, and then 4 days later she went out with some friends for mexican food, and she likes a bit of hot salsa in mild salsa. Make it medium, ya know?
She said it hurt so bad she was crying! So....applesauce, peanut butter, jelly, grits, oatmeal, the like.
