I've had 3 teeth pulled, 2 of them permanent, so my dentist said that I would only have to get 2 of my wisdom teeth removed. The strange thing is that 2 of them are almost all the way in, and I have no idea where the other 2 are.

I've had a root canal... they're no sweat except that mine was on a back molar so it was hard to open my mouth that wide for so long.

"I dont need pity! I need my God damn Vicodin!" 
 
Answer- 
"You get two every six hours, that's more then enough" 
 
His answer again- 
"Am I on some kind of allowance?" 
 
House FTW. 
 
 
On Topic- 
 
I had a root canal three weeks ago, I had gotten punched in the mouth, the tooth ended up cracking right in half. 
(Which, at the time, didnt know, I thought it was just lose from the punch) 
So there it is, hanging, and im having a REALLY hard time eating ANYTHING. 
I go to dentist- Freeze up- (most painful part) then he pulled, which took two seconds, then did a root canal with a screw, 
It felt kinda cool actually.  
 
I'm such a good little patient    
I keep my eyes closed throughout the entire thing, Makes you less nervous.

		Yea i had almost the exact same procedure as you did Crimson,  
 in my case my bottom right wisdom tooth was at the point where i almost had an abscess tooth, but i had gotten to the dentist just in time before any major infection started. I was given a bunch of antibiotics to take and i had to wait nearly a week before they could even operate which made my pains worse as it went.  I had to get all 4 wisdom teeth out, and i still need to get a "bunch" of root canals, but i have had more pain dealing with the single tooth then i think ive ever had with my mouth, so im quite fine with the pain. I didn't really feel anything other then a poke in my arm then i awoke and took some T3 and slept. Was hard to sleep the first few days , but afterwords i didnt have to take any pain killers.  
 
 The only thing for me is that my sockets have taken a really long time to heal, not painful but just annoying since i still chew with my front teeth to avoid getting crap in the sockets.  
 Avoiding getting wisdom teeth taken out is probably the worst thing you can do lol, i had mine start growing in around 5 years ago and i had pain somewhat but was too scared to go in to get them removed. Longer you wait the longer the healing process will take.

		Yeah, I'm 27 so I waited a bit too long. I hate dental work and I try to avoid it whenever possible. :\ I've had one root canal and I have a crown on another molar that didn't need one. I think I have one small cavity left somewhere else, then my mouth will be back in prime condition. But for some reason, I found out when I tried to get my XRays that my dentist's office is closed down and no forwarding information is available. It was a group office with something like 4-5 dentists so I don't know wtf happened. Now I have to find a new one.
