Today, after weeks of oral pain and hundreds of dollars in dentistry fees, we found the culprit: a popcorn kernel that floss was unable to remove. FML

iAlissa tells us more.

There was indeed lots of blood. It was lodged so deep between my molar and my wisdom tooth that they essentially had to surgically remove it. :(

Damn those are awful. Even if you were able to get it out, it'd be 38 hours later, after all your attempts it would have come out on its own after you gave up, and you'd have already flossed your gums till the bled trying to get that out.

Sometimes what pops up might surprise you.

That's actually the sole reason why my love for popcorn died! :/

That must have been painful. Hope you are fine now :)

I had that happen with hambuger once. 3 days before I gave in and went to dentist.

I would say get the wisdom teeth out while you can, you never know if they're going to come in more or not. Mine got so bad before I had to remove them they were cutting through my gums & talk about painful!! Anyways, those damn popcorn kernels. Happens to me (well, not as serious) Everytime I eat popcorn.
