i was sooo nervous for my wisdom teeth removal. they were aware of my anxiety, and because my veins are so small they could not get the IV in, i was freaking out. after about an hour, they got it in and told me to relax and i was just talking and then i passed out and woke up talking nonsense and came home and went to sleep :) donāt stress it! wear comfy clothes and bring someone to drive u home š

I had my wisdom teeth pulled a couple years ago and they let me use my headphones during the procedure! Also helps to wear comfy clothes and short sleeves!
I've had quite a few surgeries before, including wisdom teeth removal. For me, it has always helped doing a lot of research on the procedure/what to expect. Idk if you're not a fan of blood or any of that kind of stuff, but the knowledge of exactly what is going on and what's happening to me helps keep me a lot. In addition, I like making a presurgery playlist to listen to. This helps a ton with downtime waiting to get back to the procedure. Hope that helps!
