Had my dentist appointment yesterday and had three wisdom teeth pulled. One didn't need to be pulled because it moved over into a spot left open when another tooth had been pulled years ago. So seeing as it was a functioning tooth, it wasn't pulled. My lower saw is a bit swollen, giving me a demented chipmunk look. The swelling should go down a bit in the next day or two.

I have managed pretty well with everything so far. Cant eat anything I would like to because I cant open my mouth very wide due to swelling and some stiffness in my jaw. It will be at least a week before much of the soreness and stiffness will go away. Until then I am on a liquid and soft foods diet. Trying to figure out how I can have some chocolate. Where there's a will, there's a way.
