I have three - the fourth impacted and was removed under local anaesthetic. Well, more correctly I suppose, under about 7 local anaesthetics, as my mouth refused to go numb (my tongue did, but only cos they managed to inject one lot straight into one of the tongue nerves). I had jaw ache for a while afterwards (it took longer than normal to get teh root out, and my mouth just doesn't open that wide naturally!), but nothing else. I did end up removing my own stitches though because they started to really annoy me!
