Does pulling teeth hurt?

i am due to pull 3 back top teeth this week .the dentist is going to give me a tablet to ease my tension.he also will rub some gel to numb my gums and then give injection.i am very frightened but hope to go through this. i will have to get dentures.i was only at the dentist a few times before but each time i had injection in hand and was concious but never felt anything or remembered.this time i cant get that this time as they dont do it anymore. .he says after taking this tablet i will feel relaxed as if i was after 10 vodkas.but i am wondering will i feel much while he is pulling.i am a very frightened of dentists .what can i expect.will it hurt or will i feel anything

Does pulling teeth hurt?
they usually numb it! they couldnt just let you sit there and take the pain!





still though i rather it be you than me!
Reply:yes da gum hurts most!!
Reply:Don't worry! I'm petrified of the dentist after some terrible experiences with fillings when I was younger. I had two back teeth out last year though, and it didn't hurt a bit, and it was over surprisingly quickly too. I think the dentist found it more stressful than I did.
Reply:My dentist would not be taking all three out at once, each tooth would be taken out seperately.
Reply:You wont feel a thing,the worry before hand is always the worst.
Reply:I hate the dentist but have had a few teeth pulled easy peasy you will be ok. Believe it or not im no teenager but went this year and had a tooth removed and had braces put on to straighten my bottom teeth. Must be an age thing. Now have to go every month to have braces replaced but will be worth it in the end.


Just remember after extration rinse your mouth with hot water and salt its good for stopping infection.
Reply:Well, most of what you'll feel is afterward, once the numbing gel fades away. You will feel the pressure as he pulls the teeth out. It's not the most pleasant feeling but there are far worst feelings...you'll be fine!
Reply:i share your terror of dentists!! - having a tooth out is much less stressful than a filling.





once the injection kicks in..you wont feel a thing..you hear a bit of noise %26amp; it feels a bit odd - but there is no pain. important - if you are having a sedative pill...take somebody with you to take you home afterwards..you shouldnt be alone. good luck!!
Reply:The actual pulling of the tooth hurts a little briefly, but once they are out you won't feel any pain until the numbness wears off,and by then you will be able to take painkillers.The worse pain is the first jab of the needle into your gum but that is more like stinging than pain and happens so quickly that it is over before you realise it.Just be brave it will be all over soon
Reply:I'd be surprised if he took all 3 teeth out at once.


I had 2 removed, had two injections and the needle must have been very sharp because I didn't feel any pain.After about 10 minutes went back into the surgery,had teeth removed and didn't feel anything.


When I got home there was a little pain because the anaesthetic was wearing off but not a big problem.
