What to do if i'm getting wisdom teeth out this thursday do dentis use a general needle cause i am getting wisdom teeth out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wisdom: Teeth can be taken out under sedation or just local anesthetic. It is up to you so discuss with your dentist. All of my wisdom tooth cases are done under local so that the patient is better able to take care of themselves and have less post op problems.
