Dental in Bootcamp

YN2(AW)Williams · 11-15-2015, 09:29 PM

Some of the best fun in boot was watching your shipmates coming back from medical/dental high as a kite from the meds and trying not to screw up around the RDCs. We had one guy that was pretty much a constant verbal stream of what was going through his head, which pretty much amounted to "Oh F, F F F F F F F I made eye contact with chief...is he going to drop me now? My face feels funny. That female needs to wash her hair. Am I drooling?" etc etc

Alot of my division, me included, didnt need to have our wisdom teeth pulled. Lucky us. One guy did get something like 7 root canals though...

I was the only one in my div that didn't get their wisdom teeth taken out, but they told me they would have to spend more time than a typical removal so they had me wait. Still haven't gotten them out...

Boot camp dental rocks! Super quick and painless. Good luck!

My son left for boot camp Dec 2, 2015. He has all four of his wisdom teeth, but they don't bother him. Do you think they'll pull them ? And at what point do they pull them, beginning or end of boot camp ? Thanks :-)

If they felt the need to pull his wisdom teeth, they would have done it early so as not to interfere with training. So since he has been there now for a week or so, if the navy felt the need, he is probably already having them out or will shortly.
