Yes, it is possible to have all four wisdom teeth (also known as third molars) removed at the same time. The decision to remove all four wisdom teeth simultaneously is often made based on several factors, including the position and condition of the teeth, the patient's overall oral health, and the recommendation of the dentist or oral surgeon.
Removing all four wisdom teeth in a single procedure can have some advantages. It allows for a single recovery period, which means you won't need to go through the healing process multiple times. Additionally, it can be more convenient in terms of scheduling and reducing the overall cost compared to separate extractions on different occasions.
However, the decision ultimately depends on your specific situation and the professional judgment of your dentist or oral surgeon. They will consider factors such as the difficulty of extraction, your overall health, and any potential risks associated with removing all four teeth simultaneously.
It's important to have a thorough discussion with your dentist or oral surgeon regarding the benefits, risks, and post-operative care involved in removing all four wisdom teeth at once. They will be able to evaluate your specific case, provide personalized advice, and guide you through the process.

Ideally only one side is operated at a time , that is left upper and lower teeth on one day and right upper and lower teeth after a week or so . But, if time is an issue then you may go for all the extractions at one go.

Hello dear…
You can remove all 4 at once but it would be very uneasy for you ,
I would advice you to get one side of wisdom tooth upper and lower to remove and after a week or two get the other side upper and lower wisdom tooth removed..
It will be more comfortable for you as you can eat from one side of mouth while other side healed and after a week get the rest of the wisdom tooth removed …
My clinic is in gurgaon you can come to my clinic for wisdom tooth extraction.
Take care
