It's gonna be a few weeks honey.. If it makes you feel better, my dad just had all of his bottom teeth pulled because he's getting dentures! Any how get some rest and drink a lot of fluidss.. You'll be better before you know it..Health Question & Answer
take whatever the dentist gave you.. after that, try putting tea bags inside your mouth/between your teeth.. sounds weird but it helps to extract fluids and reduce swelling and therefore pain.. i would get regular lipton tea bags.. anyway, apart from that, if i were you i would sleep as much as possible until it's over - that's what i did! and don't forget to clean those holes back there with that squirtey thingee the dentist gave you - that's very important to stop infection.. if it keeps up being swollen and painful for more than a couple of days, you might want to go back and have the dentist check on it..Health Question & Answer
You just have to kind of deal with it.. Ice helps a little but you're still going to look like a chipmunk for at least a week.. Just rest and try not to think about it too much.. I'm just glad I had mine out over the summer..

Well in a way your lucky!
I had 2 of mine removed along with others....
This was prep for an op to have my jawbone broken n moved forward....
The swelling was a lot more intense than when i had teeth out!
Lived off liquids for 6 wks n had my teeth tied together!
You'll be fine!!Health Question & Answer
