So, I've just been advised by the Dentist that I should have all 4 wisdom teeth out as they're at the wrong angle and it's likely to cause a lot of pain later on. No immediate rush as they're not painful now but the question I have is, how painful and horrific is the procedure with injections? or should I go with the gas option and be knocked out for an hour and have the surgeon do it?

It's a bit like visiting a cocktail bar and choosing between whiskey or gin based cocktails.
It's the aftermath that is painful and horrific.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment

Either way you're going to feel like you've been kicked repeatedly in the face by men in large steel capped boots and will be dribbling blood for a day or so, but the sockets should heal over remarkably quickly.

Slightly off topic.
Device Blocks Sound Of Dentist's Drill | ITProPortal.com
Another pointless invention, personally I don't care about the sound. What I don't like is my vision blurring because my skull is vibrating so violently whilst the smell of burning enamel drifts up my nostrils.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment
