wow, tomi. getting your teeth taken out??? that's a lot on top of everything else. i know. hey, i had 3 baby teeth pulled out because we had waited forever for them to come out. and they didn't and i had braced, so out they went. i was loaded with anesthetic and the dentist practically had to wrestle with them to get them pulled out. lol. it didn't hurt one bit, though. no horror story here. but, i hope it all goes well for you. as sky said, stock up on the "softies" (soft foods, etc). wishing you the best.
