This is not an experience that anyone relishes, but the local or general anesthesia your dentist uses will ensure that you'll feel no pain during the extractions. You may feel some pressure, which is normal. You will probably have some post-operative pain. If over-the-counter pain medications don't do the trick, just ask your dentist to prescribe something.

I live in a third world country. Several years ago I had a rear molar that ached underneath for several months. It wasn't loose.
Over here they don't believe in giving any anesthetic (including numbing shots) to anyone with high blood pressure (which I have).
The procedure lasted 4 agonizing hours. The tooth had to be drilled and extracted one little piece at a time and it was indescribably painful, the entire four hours.
If you live in a country where the dentistry is known for quality; be thankful.

Dentistry has come a long way in the last couple of decades wrt pain management. When I was a youth during the Stone Age the dentist's idea of pain management was to slap you and tell you quit screaming. Now they have drugs that shut off your nerves. You shouldn't feel anything.

I am going through the same thing this week with my eye-teeth. What-ever that means. I am also having a root-canal done also. So, I really do know what you are going through. It hasn't been too bad but I would ask about something for pain. I would almost insist on it. They don't give you but about 12, so it isn't a problem getting hooked on them. Wish me luck as they finish me up Thursday. I wish you God's Blessing!!!

You will be fine. Just relax. Think of hoe many people get their wisdom teeth taken out everyday. You never read in the paper " Girl dies from freak wisdom teeth accident"

Hello, you will be sound asleep in la-la land, so you will never feel or see anything. I was nervous to, but you will be ok. Just close your eyes and think of pleasant thoughts. good luck
