Depends: Extraction of any tooth has some dsicomfort associated with it. Wisdom teeth that are not impacted ( buried within the jaw bone ) are seldom a bad experience. Impacted wisdom teeth are usually removed by an oral surgeon and often with sedation or general anesthesia. Post operative discomfort varies from patient to patient but post operative medication is generally very effective and patients are.

Depends: Simple, surgical, or impacted and how badly impacted. It could be as simple as any tooth, or as complicated as needing the tooth sectioned into pieces, gums cut, and some bone removed. The more work needed, the more time effort and recovery will be needed.

Depends: You need to make an appt. With your dentist to determine how bad they are, they can be taken out all one shot under anaesthesia of course. Or one side (top&bottom) at a time giving you the other side of your mouth to chew on tell the extraction side heals.
