How long would it take to extract 4 wisdom teeth and 2 that are impacted? under IV sedation. (looking for answers from people who got the surgery outside of the US)
How long does a typical wisdom teeth surgery last?
up to an hour/ hour and a half including preparation %26amp; recovery time.
Reply:We live in Calcutta, India. My wife had to have four impacted wisdom teeth out, and the dentist took roughly 45 minutes for each tooth. Of course, he took out two in one sitting, and two in the next.
It's not as bad as you think.
Reply:30 to 90 minutes. my mom had hers removed. just be careful once you wake up from the anesthesia...you will feel a bit wooooozy..VERY sleepy and groggy. just a warning.
a lot of ppl have this surgery. its nbd. just tell ur dentist to make sure u dont swallow a lot of blood....dont ask me y. swallowing the blood has NASSSSTY consequences.
Reply:I had my wisdom teeth taken out at the dentist for the two top and the hospital for the two bottom as they were impacted. I wasnt put to sleep though just given a local. It seemed to take a lifetime but in reality it was about an hour for both bottom teeth to come out. It was a bit painful afterwards but nothing compared to the pain prior to having them removed.
Reply:30 - 45 minutes
make sure you get a good anaesthetic (how do you spell it?)
My dentist would not extract 6 teeth in one session. Se believes it to put unnecessary strain on the heart etc.
(and I believe she gets paid more for multiple treatments!)
I may be out of date as it's 30 years since I needed it done. I also hate needles; not the pain but the thought of a needle really gets to me.
I would get at least two opinions as to the best treatment for your condition before lying back in the chair.
Good luck!
Reply:I don't think there's any such thing as a typical wisdom tooth surgery because everyone is different. However, I suggest you ask this question on the site www.dentalfearcentral.com where lots of people have had this type of procedure and you might get a more balanced opinion.
Reply:from start to finish under iv sedation?
you'll be in the chair for less than an hour if the surgeon is good and if the teeth are easy to remove.
