I just had my second wisdom tooth surgically removed and it went really well, way better than last time, with way less pain and swelling. This time I only needed painkillers during the first night, and it was easier to eat after the surgery. Though people mostly will tell you how bad it is to remove them, I'd rather experience a small amount of pain over a couple of hours/days rather than having the teeth go infected and hurt for years. Best of luck though!
