The Age of Wisdom

     Between the ages of 17 and 25 everyone goes through the age of wisdom. Through out this time period we gain the wisdom we need to go through the rest of our lives. There's also this awful process where these teeth come from the hidden depths of your head, and try to fit their way into your jaw.
       Nobody wants to consider getting their wisdom teeth removed, but when you experience the pain of these teeth trying to push their way through your already present teeth, you realize that it is a necessity.
In order to get rid of this pain you can do a few things:

  • lots of liquid pain relievers such as advil, orajel, etc
  • use cold packs on your jaw to reduce the swelling and achiness, or you can make smoothies with lots of ice. 
  • many people say that applying a damp tea bag to the hurting area works wonders.
Most of all, get your wisdom teeth out as soon as they start to bother you. This will limit the amount of time that you are in pain. Granted that getting your wisdom teeth taken out will be painful, if you ge them taken out right away, you won't have to endere pain for so long.
