Dang I'm getting my wisdom teeth out soon and completely forgot I'm gonna have to take a short break from lifting. I've been on my ish too


Some guy let me borrow his Inzer belt the other day and it felt AMAZING. The thing is it was the tapered bodybuilding belt. Is there a huge difference between the tapered belt and the typical Inzer powerlifting belts?

Anybody ever have their wisdom teeth out? If so, how long did it take for you guys to get back in the gym? I was eating solid foods day of the surgery, very limited pain, no swelling since (surgery was Friday). I was advised no heavy lifting for a week, but I’ve seen some get back into as soon as a day after with no problems.

Had all four of mine out three weeks ago. Surgery was on a Friday, and I was back in the gym on That Sunday:

I got dry sockets many years ago when I got mine out.

Do NOT get dry sockets.

Worst pain of my life.

 

[freeze]

what is dry sockets?

i got one of my out like a year or two ago. actually left work to get it done, then went back to work. had no pain and no selling. I'm basically Logan though...so I was pretty healed. Went to lift like a day or two later. I remember going to hoop after donating blood once. like ballin on a cloud my dudes lol

 

[jewbacca2]

A dry socket is when you can't get your girl wet.

 

[everysingletime]

Usually shortly after a tooth extraction a blood clot forms over the extraction point to prevent exposed bone, etc. Exercising too soon can make it more likely for the blood clot to disappear and expose the bone and nerve endings, etc.

The pain can be very bad and radiate to your head, ears

Dry socket doesn't always happen when you return to exercising early, but I'd rather not risk it

 

[mplsdunk]

Exactly. Too bad it's the night and I won't weight this much after I drop a deuce.

when i got mine taken out, they had me chew on a tea bag for an hour or two. paws

 

[mplsdunk]

speaking of working after surgery. I went to work after a hernia surgery like 6 hours prior and almost fell asleep standing I was so doped up. Still killed it though. Food was on point somehow.

did u get it done in the basementin thailand???

 

[benzilla427]

You guys got me paranoid with all this dry socket talk. Got all four of mine out yesterday and they were impacted :x. Oral surgeon suggested no heavy lifting for a week or so. I wanted to go for a squat PR this week too

But would still drive for 30 hours?

 

[everysingletime]

Heavily impacted you say? Lmao don't go to the gym bro. That squat pr is not worth it. A week off is nothing.

Take that week off pleighboi. Not worth the risk.

teabag is for the blood and inflammation fam. look it up.

 

[everysingletime]

For health reasons. Whatever floats your boat, papi

I don't judge.

 

[benzilla427]

lol definitely not gonna risk it.

Yeah the bottom ones were pretty bad so my normal dentist referred me to a an oral surgeon. The roots of the wisdom teeth were really close to a nerve so the surgeon said there's an 8-10% chance he nicks it and I lose feeling in my lips

He prescribed oxy but the pain isn't too bad so I'm sticking to Advil.

Take the week off as I'm doing. There's times when I think I'm good, but then I'll lean my body over to grab something and I can feel a slight rush of pressure to those areas and I'm reminded why I'm sitting it out. Thursday will be 6 days, so that's when I plan to go back as Friday is a no go.

I can see you're not a fan of floss

 

[mplsdunk]

I have to get mine ripped out soon as well. Probably this fall since I just got insurance.

 

[everysingletime]

I had 3 wisdom teeth taken out. The 4th is heavily impacted as well. Close to the nerve ending as well. They told me that since the 4th tooth doesn't seem to be causing me any problems that it's probably best to leave it alone.

 

[benzilla427]

Welp. Guilty as charged...

I'm that guy that flosses religiously before and after dentist appointments then it tapers off.
