I had 31 extracted leaving one wisdom that can be removed when they go in in three months to place 5 implants. Just had gas today, i am feeling pretty good the top denture has been zero issue, the bottom moves some but dentist will work on it tomorrow as I go back at 10am. Talking with no real issues slight whistle from time to time if I talk to fast. Went to my daughters volleyball game tonight, felt good to smile at her while she was warming up and she looked over. I could see the smile on her face as she realized I was ok and could smile again without being ashamed, the periodontal disease had ruined my teeth and left gaps especially between the front. It was a little a painful with all the shots as the dentist said I was metabolizing the novacaine or whatever they shoot your gums with :). I am taking the antibiotics, and painkiller and ibuprofen as prescribed, I have had some chicken soup, ice cream, mash potatoes so far but couldn't be happier. Sure I have a ways to go, but for day one I am very pleased, and will check in with the dentist tomorrow at 10am, and them again Monday, bur considering all the horror stories I had read prior to today I feel very pleased, especially since I didn't have to miss my daughters game :)

Day two was good few adjustments made eating soft food still, taking scripts as ordered, no real issues. Today is day three feeling great, new little sore spot to get adjusted Monday, immediates are good for me, no issues taking in or out, healing well, going to some volleyball tourney today . Dentist pleased yesterday with everything, scheduled me back Wednesday but will stop in Monday for adjustment as he said swing by anytime. Speech is almost 100% now, and no infection in mouth, best decision I could of made, so if you need it, don't jeopardize your health by not doing it, I will say if you don't have a high tolerance for pain, don't go through the extractions awake, I was fortunate to have my choice, but if I chose again I would have been knocked out. For the extractions. I chose gas and to be awake but for 31 it was too much :)
