A friend of mine had six wisdom teeth. Does that mean he’s especially wise or especially judgemental?
If in US, means dentist got a new yacht
I had that, so personally probably both
My brother has none, spared him from getting them removed haha
Yes
One of mine came in sideways like that. Shattered in my jaw eventually. Had it removed right before everything closed down from covid.
Holy fuck I didn’t know they could shatter like that. Mine just kept hurting more and more
It was, we shall say, unpleasant! I was taking a nap back in 2019, and I suddenly wake up to spitting out shards. Go to my main dentist, she says “Yeah, you’ll have to see our surgeon”. Which takes a month. I see the surgeon. 5 minutes at most “Yeah we can’t do that shit here, here’s a referral.” A week later, go in. "Yeah, we’ll surgery you, probably late January. Maybe late February.
But what about the sharp pointy bits in my mouth? They got those rounded off so they wouldn’t cut my mouth (the tooth wasn’t fully still in my jaw, it had a tiny part through the gum).
What about pain? IDK. Didn’t hurt, shockingly like that. For the surgery itself they only gave me the big ibuprofen after insinuating I was a druggy, then felt bad when I explained I just wanted the big ibuprofen cause taking a handful of small ones makes my stomach sick.
I could make that side of my jaw click which turns out. Jaws should not do that.
Oof, that sucks. I actually have the opposite problem with painkillers. I keep saying “I’m allergic to opiates” and getting offered them anyways.
And yeah I also have the jaw clicking that I need to speak to a dentist about
I have all four of them, and they came out normal. You guys are so weird.
In Dutch it’s far standing teeth with just happens to be “wisdom” with a space in between
What if we call them a toth/ multiple teth because they make the teeth too close together? Is this too many streets ahead?
It’s las muelas del juicio because you get to judge how high your pain threshold is when they’re removed 🥲
In Greek they are also technically “wisdom” teeth, but that word in modern greek is mostly used for children when you tell em to be quiet and not troublesome. So it’s pretty much the tooth of being nice. Technically the tooth of judgement.
