Does it hurt getting your tooth pulled?!


Question: Does it hurt getting your tooth pulled?
Well I've never been to the dentist before and I'm going for the first time next week and there's this tooth that is really bad and my dad said it'll have to be pulled out and im way nervous. I know they give you a shot but thats what im scared of plus the blood and sounds :( should I bring me iPod cuz music makes me feel good but if that doesnt work should I ask them to give me the happy gas? What does it feel like on the happy gas? I'm feeling sick to my stomach now just thinking about it but I really need to go and I want my teeth professionally cleaned. Please help and be nice im only 11 v_v

Answers:

hey sweet, don't worry about it i was really nervous at first when i heard i was getting my tooth pulled out, to be completely honest the needles do a hurt a little, but thats only for like a second, then after that you can't feel the tooth being pulled out, at first im didn't notice the blood but to be completely honest, again, there was a bit but the dentist takes control of that and gives you like ... cotton buds to but in your mouth to absorb the blood. Really don't worry, happy gas will make it worse, and you'll look better afterwards.
Really, haven't you ever been to the dentist, make sure you continue to go after this unless you want this to happen again, not thats bad :)
Good Luck

Got my tooth pulled out.



I always bring my iPod when I get something done on my teeth, whether I'm just getting them cleaned or if I'm getting something drilled or pulled. It helps. The shot hurts a bit, but it's worth it, trust me. With that and the gas it should be bearable. It always is for me. Then again, I always take strong pain medication before I go to the dentist,so I fall asleep during the work :P But I don't suppose you can really do that..Well, the few times I've gone without medication and I just had the shot(s) and gas, I was fine. So don't worry about it,it'll be fine.
