@W0LFB3AT5: I'll keep that in mind, but I'm not quite at that stage yet, I'm still keeping gauze in my mouth and changing them hourly.

On the bright side, I did get my specialist to prescribe me a small bottle Hydrocodone, so pain isn't that bad.

@zenitix: good to hear. All I had were sleeping pills and Ibuprofen.

Hope you feel well, man. The pain usually lasts to about a week-and-a-half. (For me anyway). Hope yours is faster. If so, lucky! Lol
