I hope, you got Paracetamol, or Ibuprofen instead of Aspirin, as the latter is an anticoagulant, which prevents the blood from thickening itself. Other than that, that's exactly the same medication I got in Germany when my wisdom teeth were extracted: Local anesthetics during the procedure, paracetamol for afterwards and a sick note for one day with the option to get it prolonged if necessary. Outside the US it's not as common to throw a ton of opioids at minor/medium pains. Which is why the US has an opioid crisis and we don't.

Motrin was the pill of choice when I was in the military. It was treated like a magic cure all for any ailment or injury, including dental work. No matter the issue, you got motrin.

It's likely he got the same.
