Juliet's Wisdom Teeth Removal

Juliet has been so busy over the past year that I haven't been able to find a time to get her wisdom teeth out. We were running out of time and she was about to leave for BYU. We just had to make it happen and get it done. She was not excited about it. 


It seemed to go fine and she was passed out on the car ride on the way home and was singing harmonies to the songs on the radio, which Mikayla and I thought was hilarious.


She rested for a lot of the day and even played the piano. We ate all the smooth foods.


There was only a week before she was going on a trip with her friends and she felt pretty good for a few days and then said she still had pain. We took her in and they said she had some dry socket. It was on the bottom and on the outside edge of her gums. They said she should really focus on keeping food out of the hole and it should heal up. She was pretty upset because she had so many things that she wants to do before she leaves to BYU and this was not helping. But she ended up being okay, just not as healed as she wanted to be. With the next kids, I don't care how busy they are, we are getting them out sooner. I think that was part of our problem.
