I will be awake during the tooth extraction...Help...?

I am getting my top left...second to last one... pulled next Wednesday. How long will it take? I will be awake but numb. Will it hurt? and, for how long? Will Advil do the trick?

I am not looking forward to it, but i can't live with this pain!

well, im 15, and have had 12 teeth pulled. And it doesnt hurt, it is just weird when you can hear them pulling it out, because it makes noise...but dont worry, you wont feel a thing. I would know

the only thing you will feel is when they give you the shot to numb your mouth, it feels like a little pinch (sometimes this hurts, but really, only when you think about it alot)

And i would tell you if it hurts, because im terrified of the dentist, so i promise...wont feel a thing, might hear it, but not feel it

advil helps some people, not all, so hopefully it will help you, it usually takes about an hour (not to pull the tooth, that takes just seconds, but the numbing stuff doesnt start working til about 30 minutes, and then, of course they will make you wait, because thats what they are good at)

and you will be awake~well, at my dentist im awake, but i know of at some, the people are asleep

OH, and ask for laughing gas, it makes you real relaxed
