Question

Does it hurt when you get your teeth pulled out at the dentist?

Answer 1

The dentist will give you anaesthetic to numb the area. The jab hurts a little, but not intolerable. just shut your eyes!!! haha~

You'll feel the pull, but nothing else. Make sure you get some good painkillers (ibruprofen works wonders for me) , coz it HURTS when it wears off!

Answer 2

As everyone is saying, the worst part is the novicane shot at the beginning (depending on how gentle your dentist is, it can be a pinch or hurt like heck).

During the proceedure you'll only feel pressure.

Afterward, you will be in a little pain while you heal, but usually the doc will give you some pain killers to help with that.

Make sure you don't smoke, rinse, or use a straw for at least 72 hours.  

After 24 hours you can start rinsing with warm salt water.

Good Luck :)

Answer 3

only the novacane shot, but after, you cant feel anything.  its really weird feeling after they pull them cause your still kinda numb...

Answer 4

The only thing you will really feel is the tiny prick of the needle when they give you Novocaine. They will usually give you some Valium or laughing gas if you are really uneasy about it, or you can request that you be put under a general anesthetic if you're really terrified. The best advice I can give you is to have a friend or parent go fill your Rx for whatever pain killers they give you while you are having the extraction. You don't want to be without your meds when the Novocaine wears off.

Answer 5

Usually, you only feel a sting from the needle and then your mouth is numb.

Answer 6

not if they numb it but after it does a little it bleeds a lot somtimes and u drool

Answer 7

if u r takin injection for example the doctor tells u it does not hurt but when i was to pull my teeth he told me it will hurt a bit so therefore IF he could tell that no need to scareu but its a nigtmare both during and after sorry in advance!

Answer 8

Answer 9

kinda-i kicked my doc

Answer 10

not really. They usually give you novicane or something to knock you out so you won't feel anything :)

you might feel them tugging at the tooth, but it shouldn't hurt, just feels...odd.

Answer 11

it doesn't hurt when you are  getting your teeth pulled, but after it does!

Answer 12

No they numb it I think

Answer 13

Not at all, i've had 8 teeth out and i'm only 15 haha.

they use a needle, that looks big but it doesn't hurt and sometimes also use a gel to dumb your gums and inside cheeks and lips. You can't feel a thing honestly. When its over you'll wonder why you were worried. although when you leave the dentist  the numbness does feel a little strange, but it'll wear off in time.

Answer 14

SOMTIMES IT DOES

Answer 15

Not one bit, the only pain is the needle and after!

Answer 16

Only when they put the anathestics in.  That needle is wicked huge and made out of steel.  Otherwise, you only feel a little movement in your gums as they remove it.

Answer 17

uh hm you can feel the pressure of him pulling it out and after, if you take the medicine and just stayed in bed and eat soft food like grits (it is a type of oatmeal that it real smooth) and ice cream you will be fine!
