Does it hurt to get a salivary stone removed from inside the cheek?

No!: Maybe a smidgeon! usually not significant pain, since it can be done under local or general anesthesia. More important issue is why do you have the stone? Ask the doctor.

Depends: It depends on how it is removed. Using minimally invasive techniques, the pain should not be too bad.
