Well At Least There’s No Physical Pain

Just a little. But not as much as I was expecting after getting all four of my wisdom teeth out. It is now the day after surgery, and I have to say I am in virtually no pain. I still haven’t taken anything stronger than an Ibuprofen, and that is more for the little bit of swelling I’ve got than anything else. Dr. H is amazing, and I will recommend him to anyone in the state who needs oral surgery. 

Since I’ve only gotten my wisdom teeth out once, and can’t get them out again, I don’t know if its normal the way he did it. But he totally went in through the side of the gums instead of the top. I think that really helps, because I’m going to have to really try hard to fool around with surgery site.

I’m loving my Jell-o diet, too. I have Blue Jell-o and Orange Jell-o. And pudding. But I haven’t had any of that, yet.

Looking forward to having solid food again. But now, antibiotics.

Mashed potatoes help too! Make ’em with lots of cream. Also? Dave liked mac and cheese when he was recovering, because it doesn’t need to be chewed too much. I made him a lot of mac and cheese and chocolate pudding. RYN: NP <3 any time, sweet cheeks. Love,

i just had oral surgery (and i get to have another in about 3/4 months YAY *sarcasm*) i found that protein shakes were great too, lots of nutrients (which is essential to healing) provided me with energy and well, all you gotta do is drink it. cottage cheese too and of course almost-cold soup… and yes, mashed potatoes xx.
