reciting Wentworth's letter (no notecards or anything!) at an audition for a school play got me three dates.
It's gotten me weird looks and uhhh replies.
My wisdom teeth about a year after they were pulled grew back. But they and most of my teeth were pulled and replaced with implants
my dude, they did not grow back
you likely had a second set that should've been spotted on an exray
the first set were deformed so T pulled them. About a year later my teeth have a dull pain so T looks again and says they grew back? What? For the most part they were not as robust as the first teeth so later that year when she started the process of my teeth getting replaced she pulled my wisdom teeth to study them to find out why they grew back as they did not show up on the Xray but said since the root was still there that was probably why just a quirk of nature
She had both my ugly wisdom teeth and the regrowth ones
Wisdom teeth hurt because our mouth is actually too small to have that many teeth, but there hasn't been sufficient selective pressure to cause the extra teeth to be lost.
Not for the entire population, but there is a subset of humans that are born without them.
It was glorious to not have that surgery when everyone else was, let me tell you.

like I had to sign a waiver that I wouldn't sue the surgeon if they ended up paralyzing my jaw during the removal =/
That's pretty normal (the waiver), due to the nerve and vein placement by your wisdom teeth. It can happen accidentally. Thankfully extraction techniques & tools are much safer and faster these days then they used to be.

now I'm vaguely curious as to whether mine was a unique situation or not
spoiler for dental horror (or at least it grosses me out)
so the roots of my wisdom teeth had partially wrapped or inverted beneath the jaw .... nerve? whatever it's called. At any rate, to get the bottom ones out, they had to saw them in half and extract each side individually
fortunately I was completely under and the only memory I have is drunkenly singing 'Help' by the Beatles as I came out of it
I had my wisdom teeth out when i was 13. Just went to the dentist for a check up and all of a sudden he had his knee in my gut and was prying out my teeth. I had to walk 3 miles home and stop off on the way to buy my mom cigarettes and there was blood pouring out of my mouth the whole way; i was like an extra in pet semetary

My lower right wisdom tooth
had to be cracked into a bunch of parts that then had to be dug out. Took about 45 minutes for that tooth alone.
Fun times.

My under standing is that the majority of wisdom teeth are cracked and removed in parts. Complications arise to do with the distance of your nerves to your roots of your teeth.

It's definitely not a unique thing but due to how deep the wisdom teeth are it can happen. Sounds like the oral surgeons were on their A game though, glad you got through it without complications!
I still have all my wisdom teeth, and based on these stories I will fight to the death any dentist who tries to take them
There's a really small group of people that have no issues and have just enough room for them, or they impact slightly and cause no further pain in the jaw.
But yeah these horror stories make me thankful I never had them.
My brothers and sisters did though.

Yeah, I still need to get my wisdoms removed as well, but they've caused me very little issue over the years so it has been pretty low priority
Once they're taken out I'm gonna get them made into a pair of cufflinks

I don't have them, but I also still have two baby teeth and I'm 37.

I reflexively made a face in response to this that I don't think I've ever made before, and hope I will never again.

Not sure that was a dentist mate, think it was just some fella with pliers and a reclining chair.

Really horrible teeth related story
Back in 2010 I think we discovered my dad had a brain tumour, and he had to have surgery to remove it. A few days after surgery he had a seizure and chewed up his tongue really badly. Then while dealing with that he got toothache. He went to the dentist who discovered he had an abscess underneath one of his teeth (he only had like 4 left at that point), probably caused because his immune system was taking a kicking from all the recent events.
The dentist gave him as much novacaine as it was possible to give and according to my dad it didn't even touch it, so he basically had this infected tooth pulled with no pain relief, and it went how you would expect. My mum said when they came out to the waiting room afterwards the dentist looked shaken and was apologising. My dad ended up going in a couple of weeks later to give him a bottle of wine as an apology for making him deal with it.
He got the rest of his teeth removed afterwards and just has dentures now because fuck ever doing that again.
Pandemic Dating. People having video calls with each other and such.
Strange times we live in.
I had a video call date on Saturday and I have another tomorrow
so weird
Weird, but also pretty awesome.
Yeah it was nice, actually
And it kind of filters out stuff in fact. Like I can go for a drink with basically anyone but a five hour long video call? You gotta actually like someone to achieve that
Makes you actually get to know each other anyway. And it makes you more inventive. On Saturday we had coffee and cake in the afternoon. Next is cheese and wine.

interesting!
He made it sound like a pretty big deal
I think it is both normal and a big deal
Everyone I know had a miserable time with it

One of them never came out though, not sure if it even exists.
I think you can also gauge the current state of the dating scene by the way the love thread has turned into a dental horror show.
No, that's just a natural occurrence that loops around every few months.

Dinosaur teeth are rather common compared to full skeletons because dinosaurs regularly lost or shed them
People can't have that many dental horror stories to share.
Unless you're on a date with a dentist.
