Wisdom Teeth

Complete with Wisdom teeth that have to be taken out, I also have to put in four implants!! I have four missing teeth, which isn't fun considering I've had to live with some kind of retainer all through my teens. But now I have implants! In four months I will have teeth that look real and no retainer! Yay! So I got my bottom wisdom teeth taken out and four implants put in all at the same time. I was considerably nervous about the post surgery. How much pain I'll be in and what I would look like and feel. It wasn't too bad after I woke up, but I was swollen to no end!! And I did have some pain, which got worse as the day continued. Each day I got more swollen and puffy, complete with headaches because of the implants putting a lot of pressure next to my sinuses. But overall I recovered quickly and all was back to normal! Of course when I get off my mission I will have to go through getting my top wisdom teeth out! I was really hoping I wouldn't have to go through it again! Once is good enough for me!

This is what I really look like
