Well that explains a lot. And all these years I never knew. Huh.
'Course, the ironic thing is that it was the docs that did the surgery that prescribed them to me. I'm pretty sure, anyways, it was a while ago.

For wisdom tooth removal it's SOP, usually via laughing gas or a valium drip. Tooth-pulls and I think root canals (I've never had one) are done with a local anesthetic. At least this is standard in my area in the northeast US.
