Duggar Loses Wisdom

Do you remember watching Jana and Jill Duggar have their wisdom teeth pulled in 18 Kids and Counting "Duggars Under the Knife"? That was six years ago. Since then, several other Duggars have had the same procedure. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar recently took 18-year-old Josiah Duggar to have his wisdom teeth surgery. Jason Duggar captured the moment in the following video:

      Everyone is different. I had 5 teeth pulled at the time of my wisdom teeth extraction. They were all impacted and I had stitches all through my mouth. Just because you didn't have pain, doesn't mean someone else doesnt.

    Poor guy, I really feel for you. I had 4 impacted wisdom teeth and had to have part of my jaw removed as well. Take care, lots of ice and I will be praying for you!

    That poor child!!! Why are they videoing him right after a painful procedure like that???? You can see the tears in his eyes! Sometimes, the cameras need to be shut off

      Firstly, he isnt a child. He is a young man. Secondly, he was well aware he was being filmed and could of declined being filmed whenever he wanted. Thirdly, he didnt HAVE to talk. He could of raised his hand as if to say he is in too much pain to talk right now. Fourthly, he would of been high on pain meds, fithly, it wont be the worst pain in his life and finally, his eyes were watering. He wasnt crying, theres a difference. Im sure he was taken good care of at home

      You can tell he's in on it... I really doubt they would force him if he didn't want to do It

    Oooh, poor Josiah... Shouldn't have asked him questions after but I really enjoyed his responses it was funny. I really like his personality he's very attractive too. When TLC isn't there they are still filming sometimes, I can see they really like to capture any moment on camera. Love this family

    Been there, done that. Thankfully I had only my top left removed when I was 13. I did have the usual swelling and a bit of bruising as well, but that's all normal. The trick to having a smooth and quick recovery is to have the surgery on a Monday or a Tuesday, and as early as possible in the day, so that recovery will fly by faster than if it was done on a Friday.

    Awe, he looked uncomfortable, too bad he didn't have Joy with him as she is just a year younger, they could have recouped together. I'm sure he got the royal treatment by his siblings like they have all done in the past, homemade applesauce and all :-)

    I just had mine out at 53. Better to have them out when you are young.
    Praying that you have a speedy recovery.

    The Josh Duggars have become so fashionable since adapting to DC living.
    Anna's hair and makeup always looks nice, much better than before. They are dressing much more sophisticated than before. The kids always look adorable. McKenzie always looks so cute with her jewelry. Life in the "big city" must be good for them!

    I feel for you Buddy..... I still rank my wisdom teeth surgery as the WORST experience of my entire life.... I got an infection after which left me with a foul metallic taste in my mouth, and hallucinating that there were purple horses in my bedroom. My Husband definitely saw me at my worse those few weeks. Praying for a quick recovery for you !! P.S. Use a GOOD quality mouthwash... ALOT !!

    Okay. My children had their wisdom teeth removed too. It really wasn't worthy of a home video, or even a photo. This is so just not a big deal.

    He can't be really in that much pain. John David is laughing, and he wouldn't be if his brother was really in that much pain.
