During a tooth extraction the dentist will probably give you nitrous oxide to let you sleep. So you won't feel a thing. Now if the dentist does not give you enough, you might feel like someone probbing your mouth but no pain feeling at all. Just let the doc know, he'll give you more to ease your discomfort.
After the extraction, you might be really tired. The pain will be more prominent. The dentist will give you pain killers to help cope with the pain. The amount of pain depends on your pain tolerance. It does hurt afterwards and there will be bleeding for a couple of hours after.
An extraction is surgery so there will be discomfort and pain and blood.
I had 4 wisdom teeth extracted, couldn't open my mouth for 4 days. Pain subsided around 7 days, completely went away by 2 weeks. Lost 10 pounds because all i could eat was spoonful of soup.

Nope..they will be out before you know it. The hardest part is the numbing. !!!!! Just had two back ones pulled...I was suprised how easy it was. I couldn't believe he was done! IT is quick ! It is a little sore afterwords...but I swear it wasn't bad! I didn't even fill the pain medication...just took some Aleive

While they are extracting it, it shouldn't hurt if they give you enough anesthesia, you just feel a lot of pressure; however, when it wears off you will start feeling pain

Well this September I'm having 4 more teeth removed..which will total 14 teeth pulled in my total life.
To be totally honest when i was EIGHT i had 4 teeth removed...and it did hurt..
The needle hurt me a little but i had a HORRIBLE dentist who's now fired (:
but if you get oral surgery and they put you under( i went halfway under i was in la-la land) you don't feel a thing.
I wouldn't worry too much the needle to numb you goes in and comes out it gives you a little pinch and then you have them grab the tooth and they wiggle it out( my was STUCK so my head was BOBBING up and down like crazy haha)
don't worry
I've had braces since third grade and im still going...5years... so far.. ~sigh~ ive seen it all
you'll be ok and it will hurt a bit..
just take some pain relievers and bring a stuffed animal
and what I did the second time i went back(i had two appts. 4 one time 3 the other when i was 8)

As long as you are numb, it will not hurt. You will feel a lot of pressure, but other than that, it's no big deal!

no it doesn't hurt, becuz of the nummy stuff and PAINLESS shot they give you. You only have a little bit of pressure and that's it! The shot is just a little little prick and that's it as well! Good luck with the braces though! That's another story!

I had all my wisdom teeth pulled (4!). I wasn't put completely to sleep. I was basically just numbed. It didn't hurt, but I couldn't feel my face for a couple hours afterword. I was also bruised around my jaw for about a week.

i had one extration the other day. during dosent hurt. afterwards dosent eaither.. as long as you take the pain killers they give you. after it's removed it's very unconfortable because you keep bleeding, (the taste of blood is nasty (mask it with icecream).
the actual procedure depends on the tooth itself. it take a second or several mins. make sure you dont feel anything but pressure when they numb you up.

I work in surgery and ironically I just seen a tooth extraction yesterday. Honestly, it just depends on your pain tolerance. I mean rather you get the procedure done at the dentist office or in surgery, you will have either moderate sedation(your not asleep, just really really loopie) or you will be completely under with anesthesia and either way you cannot feel it being done. Your gums and jaw areas might swell for a few days depending on where they are pulling the teeth out, but the doc should give you some type of medication to take to keep from maximum discomfort. Good luck, I'm sure that you'll be fine.....

Due to bone disease in my jaw I needed to have all my teeth extracted.
The worst part is the Novocaine shot. But it is over within seconds. They do put a topical solution on the area that the shot will be injected that will make it less painful. Make sure you tell your dentist if you have high blood pressure because they have special Novocaine mixture that must be used for people with high blood pressure. Tell your dentist of all medications you are on and any health problems.
Once the Novocaine takes effects your dentist will proceed. If you feel pain while he attempts to pull the teeth make sure you make him aware of that before he proceeds. He will administer a little more Novocaine.
Novocaine simply makes the area numb and makes you not feel the tooth extraction.
Be brave. It isn't all that bad. It is over very quickly.
After wards listen to his instructions carefully on what to do after your teeth are extracted. There are certain things you can drink and eat and certain things you can not. I know one thing for certain there is no smoking cigarettes or anything smoke able after the procedure.
The Novocaine will cause your mouth and lips to be numb. It will pass. It feels really funny though.
Don't worry. It is over so quickly. And being you need this done I guess you have no other choice. I had no other choice either.
I didn't look forward to it. But now it is just a memory.
Good luck and take care. Remember I had to have all my teeth extracted and you need only two. I got through it and so will you.

Talk to your orthodontist/dentist about local Anesthetics. You'll want the gel on your gum before the local injection, which can be a shock. If you're really freaked about the pain (I always am), they can prescribe a Valium, which you take an hour before the procedure.
I hate to say this, but even with the locals, it's gonna hurt. But ONLY for the second or two it takes to pull the teeth. Then you take Tylenol for any residual pain the rest of the day/evening. There's always some going on, because you've worked on those nerves.
Taking out healthy teeth is actually less painful than diseased teeth, because you don't have the pain of infection or cavities to deal with along with everything else.
It's worth it, tho! You'll be happy with it all later on!

if you are just having teeth pulled it's not really a big deal. wisdom teeth are a little different.

no it doesnt. The worst part is getting the novacaine before they start. Once they do that, your in. Some people it takes LITERALLY 2 minutes and your done depending on the root system of your teeth. When your done, they will give you pain medication when you leave, then a prescription to get more at a pharmacy. Id recommend this- if you have a far drive from the dentist to your house, Id ask the dentist if you could have extra novacaine. One time I had a root canal and 2 teeth pulled at the same time and I had a 20 mile drive home. Bu the time I left the dentist and got home, the novacaine wore off and I was literally in tears from the pain. They didnt give me pain medication when i left for some reason. I had to waittttttt till the pharmacy filled it! I dont wanna see you or anyone go thru that. Seriously though, I understand your nervous, but ull be cool, no lie.

i feel your pain, felt
ive had mines for a month now.
first of all
the extractions were made by a relative, kinda sadist used a little local anesthetic but i could still feel the tooth pull from the bottom of my jaw, the other tooth he pulled was so far deep that the teeth directly next to it were wobbly and a little loose.
after the swolleness and bleeding stopped i was able to drink foods again, about a week after the pain started to recede and i could chew rice again, right now its about a month and 2 weeks since and i downed a sirloin steak a couple days ago and had hardees for dinner on tuesday, so its not all bad after the braces stop hurting that bad and the molars stop wiggling its all good,
the hardest part is getting used to sleeping with them and the whole cleanliness of it.
wait.. 2 teef? if youres are any like mine youre gonna need 2 more extractions in the near future
