Dammit.
So, actually my top two wisdom teeth have already grown (or "erupted", I think is what the dentist said), while the bottom two are on the way up.
The reason I can't chew anything is because the partial rupture of the gum over one of the bottom teeth has become infected and swollen up to about twice its normal size... and the upper wisdom tooth in that side presses against it any time I try to chew. To clarify: if the upper teeth were not there OR the bottom teeth not in the middle of making their appearance I would not be in pain right now.
I'm on amoxycillin for the inflammation.
And, [sarcasm] best of all...[/sarcasm]
I can expect a hospital stay during the Christmas break, during which time I will be knocked out and have all 4 removed. Knocked out with general anaesthetic, that is. As far as I know they don't have a surgical sledgehammer for the purpose. Yet.
[sigh]
Go awayyyy... bad teeth, leave me alone...

Bastards.
Spammers.
The lot of them.
Wisedom teeth suck. Just look forward to getting little spikey bits of food stuck in your top wisedom teeth, biting down, and remembering you have no wisedom teeth on the bottom, as the spikey thing gouges a huge crevace out of your gum. Nice.
i may have spelt wisdom and spiky wrong there.
IT'S LATE!!
