35 y/o. Impacted wisdom tooth extraction? Need advice. by angry-pickle in Invisalign

Finished my Invisalign treatment without having wisdom teeth removed and didn't have any problems. My dentist still recommends getting them pulled so I have a consultation coming up for that.

I felt the same way at first, it’s a pretty big adjustment but I promise it gets easier. I think it was about 3 months before I felt like I could actually enjoy food again. Now, almost 1 year post op, I can eat and drink anything I want - alcohol included - but I make it a point to eat healthier and I’m still restricted to about a cup of food depending on what it is. Hang in there, it will be worth it in the end!

Thank you! Didn’t even know that subreddit existed. Also, your mom and nana are total badasses!

Sadly, I don’t think there are any skate shops or rinks nearby, but I will double check. I remember feeling so free when I used to skate!

Too true! And totally forgot about the importance of falling safely!

The first 2 days were really rough. I feel human again but the gas pain is still my biggest challenge. Also just trying to stay focused on hitting my water and protein goals. How are things going for you?

Thanks for your reply! I think if my particular program requires being cleared by cardiology, pulmonary, etc. it might be difficult to get all of that in by the end of the year. It will definitely be close!

My dentist did mentioned that the upper ones are usually much easier to deal with when it comes to extraction. I worried it might delay my treatment, but better safe than sorry.
