Wisdom Tooth Playlist
In April I will finally have my wisdom teeth removed (they have been hurting me off and on for about two years now).
On Monday I am going in to have a consult with my oral surgeon because I am concerned about his suggestions. He wants to do one side one week, and the next the following week. He also wants to use local anesthetic.
I don't know about you, but I feel that if the first time is miserable, I will be dreading going back for the second. Wouldn't it be better to get it all over with at once? I am not sure.
And I have heard such horror stories about wisdom teeth, that the prospect of being awake for this really frightens me. Do I want to hear all the cracking and drilling?
My oral surgeon seems to think local anesthetic is better, but we'll see about that. He recommended that I bring some music to listen to during the surgery to calm me down, so I have started to compile a Wisdom Tooth Extraction Playlist.
This list is a work in progress, and I am open to suggestions. Also important to note is that the playlist is mostly an attempt to make light of the situation, as I will probably just be blasting "DU HAST" during the surgery and thinking that my oral surgeon really does hate me.
