If by anesthetic you mean the novocaine, yes, they wait 'til you're knocked out. I have to say I'm a severe dentist-phobe, and my oral surgeries were the best dental experiences I ever had. I've always said I'd much rather have a baby than go to the dentist!

This is the kind of question to be asking your doctor, not internet "experts".
