How painful is wisdom teeth extraction?
Question:
My question is, how bad will this hurt under standard local anestetic? Will I just feel the pressure of them working on my teeth? My top two teeth are really decayed already, so I hope that in someway is a good thing in the removal.
Any help would be appreciated!
Answers:
Honestly, it depends on how you respond to pain. I only had local, but they had to re-numb as the anesthetic wore off part way through due to my metabolism. I didn't have pain during the extractions - just felt pressure. I was in pain afterwards, but that's what vicodin was invented for. : )

No pain at all.just tugging.
you really should get knocked out. it is very painful in the beginning, and your face will swell like a chipmunk, seriously.
i went completely under when i had mine taken out and the pain when i woke up was still immense good luck to you
not sure..but i know this guy who just had his wisdom teeth taken out 3 weeks ago and his gums are still bleeding.supposedly he's got a disorder or somethin w/ this matter.so it could suck for u, but hopefully it won't..good luck!
It feels like a regular tooth being pulled. If the dentist knows what he/she is doing, then it shouldn't hurt more than the last time you got a tooth removed.
Hi
If the anaesthetic is done properly you will almost feel nothing at all during the "operation".
You may experience more pain later as the anaesthetic wears off and your jaw may be bruised, the holes left behind by the teeth will need to heal (may prevent you from eating/drinking for a while).
I don't even want to think about it! I'm going to have to have mine removed and if I do, I'm taking my boyfriend and getting completely knocked out. That way, I just have to deal with the pain when i wake up.
Good luck!
I was not in that much pain at all after having mine retracted. It's uncomfortable but not THAT painful. besides, they will give you enough medicine to keep you sleeping. I had a problem with dry socket and that was very painful.but that happens more in women than men. Good luck and I hope everything turns out ok
No pain during the time you are numb while they're taking them out. Just pressure and pulling. Afterwards is another story. but they'll give you something for pain and you can put ice on your cheeks for swelling. Good luck.
I had all 4 of mine out the same way when I was 15. I remember pressure and such, but no pain. If it hurts, you need to tell them so they can give you more Novocaine. It should not hurt at all. It is more a discomfort.
I remember the next few days being a little painful. They gave me pain killers, but I only took Tylenol.
I have a really high threshold for pain, though.
you will have a total of 8 shots and it sucks man or mam just buck up
It shouldn't hurt at all under the anesthetic, however, the process of removing the teeth might make you sick or lead to some psychosomatic pain. The real pain comes when the drugs wear off. Pain for 1 day controllable with drugs.after that you'll be sore for a week or so.
I was put out with valium and I highly recommend it. It will be only pressure on the local unless they don't use enough or hit you in the wrong place. Good luck
