Teeth are pulled and it hurts like he ll!! I had to have four pulled about two years ago, worst pain I ever experienced. The dentist was pulling with all his strength, even braced his foot on the chair I was sitting in.

getting teeth pulled or having dental work does not hurt generally. the drs numb you up well.
Before getting braces you might want to call this office and see what they say:
There is an orthodontist in Oregon, Terry Dischinger (former portland trailblazer). Dischinger practices orthodontics with his son, Bill Dischinger, in Lake Oswego, Oregon. Dischinger is considered nationally as a leader in both functional jaw orthopedics and orthodontic technology and has lectured extensively throughout the United States. i have actually been to his office. he is famous for never pulling teeth to put on braces. he is sent cases from all over the world.
If you do have teeth pulled for any other reason, it is best to go to a biologic dentist so that you do not form a cavitation in your jaw.

This is an ultimate process to adjust the teeth at desired line/level.
Normally if size of if jaw is good enough to accommodate total teeth in straight line, they do not remove the permanent teeth.
But in case the jaw does not offer enough space to take all the 16 teeth in straight row, addtional space is crearted to get the protruding teeth inside.
It is very much a prctice and done at the chice of the patients.

dentists regularly have to remove permanent teeth prior to orthodontic treatment. this is to make space for the teeth to move and straighten. dental anaesthetic only eliminates pain, not feeling. for example: after the injection you will not feel pain, but you will feel the pressure of the tooth being moved in its socket. teeth are held in place my a periodontal membrane/ligament which acts as a shock absorber allowing the tooth to move a little if knocked for example. after a bit of easing by your dentist it will come out. follow your dentists instructions for after the extraction and you should get no pain. good luck!
