Had all 4 wisdom teeth removed and 2 were impacted. I opted to go to sleep for the procedure and as far as recovery goes I did not need any painkillers the night of and only 2 Excedrin the day after, i never even touched the prescription painkillers. Virtually pain free during all of 1-2 weeks of healing aside from being a little sore which was to be expected but more than tolerable, no worse than a common tooth ache. This speaks for itself on the quality of care you will receive from Dr.Bocciarelli and his staff, and if you are afraid you're gonna be in agony after the procedure you are gonna worry yourself to death like I did for no reason. For what its worth i am 23 years old.
