I had heard wisdom teeth horror stories from my friends. I thought that I wouldn't be able to eat for 2 weeks and that I'd be in a severe amount of pain.
I had them taken out when I was 18. That day, it hurt but it was nothing that a little bit of OTC Tylenol or ibuprofen couldn't relieve (I was given Tylenol-3 aka Codeine as a prescription...never had to use it). The very next day, I was ok enough to go out for dinner with my boyfriend's family. I had a hard time chewing but I still managed.
This was with 2 out of 4 of my wisdom teeth being impacted.
Not everyone is overcome with pain after wisdom teeth removal. A lot of people are good to go the next day. It's just a matter of how well your body heals itself and if you're good a withstanding pain.
