Better off with a short procedure than an unnecessary overnight hospital stay which drives up the costs of healthcare for all of us.

But as for your pain, yeah, f that is right. I had wisdom teeth pulled a few years back, they had to saw one out of my jaw because it was so impacted. My entire head was aching for two weeks. F that.
