I had two teeth removed at once. No big deal at all.... in fact I only had to heal once! I had no issue at all, and the whole process was simple and took all of a few minutes. Little pain afterwards, and a big relief mentally..... I also think you should just call around and go to a few specialists. Pick the one that treats you the best. I saw two surgeons and picked the one, that had the best personality, the most confidence, and put me at ease. I was sedated. I wish all proceedures could be so easy... Take care Sadie, this will all turn out OK. ginnie
