Alternatives to Dental Opioid Prescribing After Tooth Extraction

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a three-item intervention in oral surgeons who remove teeth. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can the intervention reduce opioid prescriptions to adolescents and young adults after tooth removal? * Do oral surgeons' beliefs about the intervention and opioid prescribing change? * Do patients that report using opioids after tooth removal have different experiences than patients that do not? Oral surgeon participants will: * Attend a 1-hour education session with a trained pharmacist * Receive patient instructions and blister packs of pain medicine to give to patients * Complete 2 surveys about feasibility and appropriateness Patient participants will complete a survey about pain and medication use after having a tooth removed. Researchers will compare the intervention to usual care to see if it reduces opioid prescribing.
