Now, these really are Jayne's teeth (nice!)

Yup - the deed was done and all Jayne's wisdom's finally gone for good... there's no hope now is there?



Jayne's three wisdom teeth, complete with some residual bloody gunk [Sorry! I realise you're not as into this as I am, but aren't they huge??! - J]. The two at the top were from the top and were very well behaved. The one at the bottom is from the bottom and was very naughty - it had to be sawn off and the roots got out separately. [The little shard in the middle is a bit of my jaw... - J]


Worst bit was the injections before they even began but everything was done and dusted last Monday.

It all took less than an hour with nothing remarkable to comment on except for the great sound effects... especially when they sawed off the one tooth that didn't want to come out, and then drilled out it's roots. Hmmm, I can think of more relaxing ways to spend a morning...

Anyway, a dose or two of Vicodin sorted out any discomfort that night and then, after a few hours feeling really sicky the day after, there was nothing for the next few days but soup and salt water rinsing.

All better now: Today's post-op check up went well and it seems the stitch has dissolved and it's all healing up well :))
