well i have had a lot of teeth pulled. mostly shots in the mouth, im guessing for wisdom teeth, maybe a butterfly in the arm. sometimes you get a drink, and a lot of times they gas you too and then ask you to count down from 100. i remember getting to 98 and then waking up at home in the tub. depends. but its not too bad. dont worry about it. i HATE shots period, and i can say it wasnt the worst experience of y life.

It depends on if you're getting local or general anesthesia. I got knocked out, they gave me an IV and put the drugs in there and then the next thing I knew I woke up with my mouth full of gauze. Some dentists use gas to make you loopy and out of it but I was having all 4 wisdoms out plus another bad tooth and I chose to be put to sleep. It was no big deal.

it is really not that bad and not even painful...i got three of them pulled out...(one by one each month) and u know what sucks i was 16 years old only : P
cause they freaky hurt!!! But at first the specialist dentist put some anesthesia toothpaste on my gums..then the gums would feel numb...that's when two anesthesia shots were put on my numb gums..I swear that it did not hurt...only 10% of pain for a minute..so then he waits five minutes and starts to begin the surgery...Yeah..it does not hurt at all... he took it out fast..the surgery was done in 15 minutes on my first tooth..and the other tooth was only 6 minutes cool!!!
do not worry and do not freak out cause its not like the end of the world...Yeah my wisdom tooth were growing underneath my gums and one of them was very deep..close to my jaw.(that's is why it took 15 minutes)....ouch that really hurt the most but right now i still have one..its been three years so i decided to keep it because it does not hurt..but i will cause the pain will wake up someday >( so i hope it never wakes up..lol
PS... Ur cheeks is gonna feel swollen and I recommend that u eat SMASHED POTATOES...its the only food that will help u survive..hash at least that worked for me... I have seen some really "Stupid" people trying to eat pizza BAD IDEA!!!

NO it is not any for those it is a something that pulled in you mouth then in 5 min or so you can not fell anythin in your mouth! Then afetr taht when he/she pull it out then DONE. then he may say eat yougt not hard stuff or yeah you will have to eat yougt or a smooth for a coule of days so that hole will not get anythnig in it. I hard anestheisa two times because i had plauqe but i am take care if my self now. ANd my brother had the some thing as you.

when i got my wisdom teeth pulled out they put a pig nose looking thing and u should fall asleep and then they will put a butterfly needle in you and after that you wont feel anything. well until after you get up and u will feel the pain from when they pulled the teeth out

They will most likely give you a local anesthetic injection in order to anesthetise the inferior alveolar nerve on each side of your mouth as well as the lingual nerve.

When I got mine pulled, they used a shot of novacaine.
