How painful is it to get your wisdom teeth taken out?

It depends: Speaking regarding wisdom teeth removal, there is no doubt that today that it can be done very confortablely with excellent anesthesia and IV sedation that you wake up and everything is done without you remembering a thing. Premedication with anti infamatory and anti swelling perscriptions can make even your experience afterwards very comfortable.

Depends: It depends on several factors. Discuss this with your dentist prior to the surgery.
