I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed at one time and 
can't understand doing them 2 at a time. I don't
know what I was given, but I was awake the whole time.

The only pain I remember is the doctor giving me a shot 
and saying, "I'll be back in a moment." In a panic I said 
"Aren't you going to put me to sleep?" The doctor smiled and 
replied "You'll be awake but you won't care what I'm doing."  
He was right. 

Of course they did not let me have that drug to go home with, 
and when it wore off I hurt. I took the pain pills he
prescribed for about the next 8 hours and drank fluids. Within
48 hours I was ready to eat real food. 

	Good luck! It really is not that bad.
