You guys were asleep during that? I had 6 wisdom teeth (that's right, 2 extra teeth in my jaw, all the doctors gathered to see) removed while awake with local anesthesia.
I also had local anesthesia when my wisdom teeth were removed. I had 4 of them, like most people. Still was a horrorshow for me, because I didn't manage to stop the bleeding after the removal. Ended up in the ER because I swallowed too much blood. Was my own fault, and I hope I learned from it to follow medical instructions more.
Oh yeah, the first several hours were a living nightmare. I could not stop the bleeding either and left my bathroom looking like a murderer scene. Ttankfully I managed to avoid going to the ER.
Yeah, they offered it as an option to me. Some kind of IV thing they turned on and knocked me TF out.
I'm Canadian so it's not like that option cost more or anything (thankfully wisdom teeth removal is considered a necessary medical procedure, rather than a dental procedure).
