I just had mine out on Thursday in Greenville, SC by Dr. James Tankersly. I swear ya'll! I don't care if you live in California, it's worth the fly out to go to Dr. Tankersly.

I have no bruising whatsoever and they were all impacted. The two bottom wisdom teeth even had to be taken out in pieces. The two top ones, I don't even feel like he did anything to my gums. I have some swelling but it's not that bad. Of course, I have had to eat chocolate pudding, mashed potatoes, and apple sauce for the past few days but that's expected. It's Saturday and my bottom jaw is the only part of my face that is still swollen. I couldn't put the ice packs on my face because I have sensitive teeth and gums so the coolness made me cringe. I can talk and there was hardly any bleeding. In fact I only had to change the gauze twice after the initial gauze the miracle doctor, Dr. Tankersley, put on my gums.

The only bad thing that's happened is when I made it back to Clover, SC today (which is an hour and a half away) after staying at my grandma's house was when I told my dad he needed to get my stuff out of the car, he said really sarcastically, "Don't come in here telling me to get your stuff out of the car. You have to come in here and ASK me to do stuff for you." All I said was, "My stuff is still in the backseat of the car and you really need to go get it."
