When I had mine pulled, I had 2 done per side.  Out of 4 teeth pulled, only one came out whole.   The dentist gave me demerol for the pain, and I remember I popped 4 right away (prescription said max 1 per each 3-4 hours or something like that), still felt the pain so I tossed the bottle and endured the pain.  Couple of days of soup, couple of weeks before all the swelling went down and my jaw recovered from all the yanking that my none too gentle dentist had performed on my mouth.  Then I went in for the other side.....no pain killers the second time.
Ended up cutting out my own stitches because they were driving me nuts (in the days before the dissolving stiches) and I went to go back to my butcher dentist for their removal.  Boy was he confused when he couldn't find any stitches in my mouth!  Look to a couple of days minimum before you're reasonably functional.  T3's will constipate you so only take them when you need them or eat some Activia yogurt, it's got probiotic bacteria that will help keep your intestines doing its job.

i remember when i had all four pulled at the same time and it sucked as i was in pain for about a week as the pain killers that i got prescribed weren't the best for the gut so i wasn't taking them regularly as it made me feel like crap but after that it wasn't to bad solids didn't come to about the second week so for now get use to have all your meals come through a straw.Oh and as for work it was two weeks off for me before i was up and working again.

Atta way to man up and get all four pulled at once. Now you never have too do this again. That's what I did and boy am I ever glad that I don't have to do that again. A couple of years back I had my knee scoped and I was fishing the next day! I'm a little die hard!!

My first post on this forum and it looks really good!! I mean the forum
