ELI5: Why does the anesthesia given during wisdom teeth extraction make you loopy upon waking while other surgical anesthesia does not?

Perhaps this is just me but having been "under" several times I only felt goofy and euphoric after my wisdom teeth were out.

All anesthesia can make you loopy upon waking. Ketamine is a particularly bad example of this, which is why it is no longer often used as an anesthetic for surgery even though it has other great properties, like being less prone to unsafe changes in blood pressure than many anesthetics. But the bottom line is that ANYTHING that disrupts consciousness can make people confused/loopy/combative. This happens in post surgical recovery units all the time. It might not be as well publicized or depicted in social media where people in videos act strangely after the dentist, but this is likely because after people have general surgery, they are not as likely to be allowed to leave as soon as your average dental patient.

Edit: it has been pointed out to me that ketamine has fallen out of favor as a general anesthetic in the USA, but is still very much in use worldwide, especially in developing countries.
