Molars come first. Wisdom teeth are the last natural teeth to appear in the mouth. Wikipedia explains: "They are generally thought to be called wisdom teeth because they appear so late-much later than the other teeth, at an age where people are presumably 'wiser' than as a child, when the other teeth erupt."
It is very unusual to have two sets of wisdom teeth - are you sure? Removal is only required if problems occur and the teeth do not erupt normally. After surgery, there is commonly pain, swelling, bruising and rarely tingling or numbness in lip, chin, tongue which us usually transient. The difficulty of the surgery depends on the position of the teeth, best assessed in the clinic and by radiography (X-Ray). Most importantly, don't worry. Wisdom tooth removal is the most common surgical procedure carried out, which means surgeons are very good at even the more difficult cases. Dr Nicholas Manning BDS Glasg MFDS (RCSEng) If you have an extra set of wisdom teeth, there are good chances that your mouth has more room for the dentist of the surgeon to work and remove them. As Dr Nicholas said, you will experience a few days of discomfort, and you will have pain killers and maybe antibiotics to take. You will have some swelling, but after a week, you will feel the discomfort much less.

Not necessarily. Some hypodontic individuals do not have a full set of 32 permanent tooth buds. But the average human will have 4 third molars (wisdom teeth), even though they may not develop or erupt. About 3 out of 4 people have wisdom teeth grow in. Some people have small mouths, so there is no room, and this can damage the gums unless they are removed. The removal of wisdom teeth is often complex due to their position and a tendency to form curved roots.
Delta dental is a dental insurance company. Delta dental will pay 50%-80% of the cost for the extraction of wisdom teeth.
As mankind has evolved over the millenniums, the human jaw has grown smaller. The third molars (wisdom teeth) are remnants of a time when the jaw was much larger. Consequently, there often is not enough room for the wisdom teeth to properly erupt, and they become impacted.
I assume you mean, why do you have to get wisdom teeth out...or else why do you get gassed to get wisdom teeth out. Answer to one: You get wisdom teeth out because they are messing up the alignment of your permanent teeth, causing you discomfort, have cavities (me), or your mouth is not large enough to accommodate them. Answer two: you get gassed so that you are not fully aware of the cracking, drilling and general pain of getting wisdom teeth out. Essentially it is to make you more comfortable and compliant so that you do not freak out on the dentist or surgeon (I would have done that, I had IV sedation when mine were removed).
Because by the time you get them, you are old enough and smart enough to grab pliers and rip them out yourself instead going to the dentist and giving them a ridiculous amount to do it when you have all of the tools to do so in your shed.
Yes, a person can have additional teeth beyond the typical 32. For the most part, they are known as 'anomalies' which are variations from 'normal' with no substantial consequence. I once personally witnessed 9 'wisdom teeth' being extracted at once. Most of them were smaller than a pencil eraser, but they were clearly teeth with roots, crowns and typical tooth anatomy.
