Wisdom Tooth Extraction Surgery - all at once, or one at a time?

All four of my wisdom teeth are impacted, and my dentist suggests to have them surgically removed. I'm just wondering whether this procedure is done best all at once or one at a time. My dentist said that I can have it done one at a time in her clinic under local anesthesia..another after one has healed, which I personally find more stressful. I've been doing my research online though and I think I'm more comfortable with having them extracted all at once in a hospital under general anesthesia (asleep). If you've experienced either, please do share and enlighten me. I'm really really nervous about it.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction Surgery - all at once, or one at a time?
I did it all at once, and a friend did it one at a time.





She wishes she'd done it like I did. After all, you're gonna be down for the count for several days anyway. Why go through it again, and again, and again?
Reply:I'd do it all at once, the pain may be more, but it will go away, not keep coming back.


And plus, if you do them one at a time, it will cost more for anesthesia each time, than just the once.
