Teeth pulled?!

Teeth pulled?

does it hurt to get your teeth pulled? and what does it feel like? and also do u think 16 is to old to have ceramic braces like would it look weird?

Lots of questions there!!

1. Does it hurt. -- It can. I had 4 wisdom teeth pulled at the same time, two were impacted (way down in the bone) and there was pain for 3 or 4 days. After that, the pain pretty much went away. However I later had another tooth pulled, and there wasn't much pain on that one at all. So it really depends. If your teeth aren't impacted and if you are young, chances are it won't be too bad. Especially if you do it during the summer and don't have to go to school or work afterwards.

2. What does it feel like. When they are taking the teeth out they can either use more of a local, or a general painkiller. I don't remember anything under the general (wisdom teeth) but I remember what it was like with the local. It really didn't hurt at the time, it felt like tugging. Kind of like pulling a splinger out. I felt it but it didn't hurt.

3. Ceramic braces at 16? No it wouldn't look wierd. Wierd is ceramic braces at 25 because you chose not to get them at 16. While they are noticeable, they aren't as bad as the traditional metal braces. Most people won't notice them much.
