yah, its a baby tooth, i have took medecations already, but it hurts when i bite on it. but it has lots of roots on it. so it will hurt a little bit i guess.. is it worse then a shot? sorry for all the questions, im just worried, cuz its not really wiggly, its slightly wiggly.


Answers:

Awww. sweetie, I work in Pediatric dentistry and oral surgery. It will be numbed with a local anesthetic. First they will use a little topical jelly to numb the area then inject some "sleepy juice." After it it numb you will not feel pain...just pressure. As if someone were pushing on you. They will take a pair of silver "fingers" and wiggle out the tooth. It will bleed for up to a day or two lightly and be tender afterwards. Just listen closely to the post operative instructions you are given. ALL WILL BE FINE! Good luck!
