I got mine out when I was around 18 because I didn't have enough room for them and already had TMJD. I had all 4 done at once, three were totally impacted and one poked through a bit. I was pretty meticulous to avoid dry sockets, but i do remember a bit of discomfort (but the percocet pretty much killed the pain and put me to sleep). They had to hammer and chisel at least one out so that was a little slower to feel better. I did have fun scaring a little kid in the parking lot on the way home when I smiled a bloody messy smile at him.
