Im geting teeth pulled and im realy freaked out please help.?

Alright I need some help. On Monday im having 2 teeth pulled. There adult teeth and there my top molers. They are mostly broken down to the gum and my dentist is calling this dentil surgery. Im 15 years old and have never had a tooth pulled I no it will hurt but how much and do you think theyl give me gas, a shot or put me to sleep. Iv never had a tooth pulled how do they do it. Will they give me mediction afterwerds and are there any special things I need to do before or after surgery. Please help me out i am very nervious.

Im geting teeth pulled and im realy freaked out please help.?
I had four done in one sitting. It%26#039;s not so bad. They will likely give you sleepy juice in needle form. They use a topical anesthetic too so you won%26#039;t feel much. It does not hurt at all. Just a little pressure and a sore stomach from swallowing blood. Just enjoy the days of ice cream afterward. Nothing to worry about.;
Reply:I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled and it didnt hurt a bit its just wierd cause you can feel everything but it doesnt hurt cause of the pain shot! I didnt even have to take the pain meds afterwards but be aware afterwards youll be sleepy and take a nap you might wake up to a blood stained pillow and it freaks people out but dont worry about it!
Reply:They will give you gas or a shot, so it won%26#039;t hurt. You might feel a little stick if they give you a shot, but if they do that, they will put a numbing agent on it first.





Just remember to close your eyes before they start working and don%26#039;t look over at all the tools, you will be fine.
Reply:they give you really good drugs, you probably won%26#039;t eat for a day or two but almost everybody has their wisdom teeth pulled, it%26#039;s not a big deal
Reply:Its actually not too bad. I had it done with just novicane and was just fine.





I asked for no gas...cant stand the stuff.





The procedure was done so fast I hardly realized it.





It did bleed a little for about 2-3 hours. Pain was very minor. 1 advil was able to relieve the pain.
Reply:dont worry, dentists are a millions times easier to bare with while going there for stuff like this





they%26#039;ll either give you %26#039;happy gas%26#039;, medication, or a shot that will help numb the mouth so you wont even feel it.





you%26#039;ll be fine, its just fun to get put to sleep w/ that happy gas, and having your mouth go numb is cool cause it feels so funny that you cant feel it





so dont worry, it%26#039;ll be over and done with with no pain at all
Reply:Don%26#039;t worry, You really will be fine. You won%26#039;t feel a thing. I got my widsom teeth pulled. It%26#039;s such a trip. My dentist gave me a mask (maybe laughing gas?? can%26#039;t remember, but doesn%26#039;t really make you laugh, just makes you go to sleep) and told me to count backwards from 100. I got to 98 and I was out. When I woke up I was groggy and later my mouth hurt, but it was fine. Not EVEN as scary as it sounds. They really do know what they%26#039;re doing. You might get a shot beforehand, but it won%26#039;t be that bad. It%26#039;s like a filling shot. Just close your eyes. Good luck! I hope it%26#039;s not too bad for you.
Reply:Stay calm and don%26#039;t freak out. It%26#039;s not that bad. You%26#039;ll probably get a shot or maybe 2 to numb the pain. Just a little stick. Doesn%26#039;t hurt that bad at all. Not as bad as the toothache. Afterwards you%26#039;ll probably get a perscription for anti-biotics to keep infection out and you%26#039;ll probably get some good pain killers too. It%26#039;s been my experience (i%26#039;ve had 3 pulled) that you might need one or two of the pain killers that day and then you won%26#039;t need then anymore. Just remember it%26#039;s mostly in your head and the dentist knows what he%26#039;s doing.
Reply:Did they give you any instructions whatsoever on what will be done. If not, ask them. They are your best resource. When I was in high school I needed my wisdom teeth pulled, and I never had teeth pulled before. For me, they had to put me under. Each person is different, though, and it depends what your parents decide. Sometimes health insurance won%26#039;t cover the gas but they will cover a shot. I%26#039;ve never had anything done with a shot before. I am pretty certain you will be given pain medication afterwards, though.


And it%26#039;s ok to be nervous. Just don%26#039;t freak out. Easier said than done, right? Just try doing some yoga, and on that day, see if you can bring in some music you can listen to on headphones or something.


But again...the best resource is to talk to your dentist. Keep in mind they are professionals and they will do what they can to help you and inform you. If they don%26#039;t, you ask them. It%26#039;s your family hiring them, remember. They%26#039;re paid to serve you.
Reply:Well, for braces, I had to get 4 pulled. Im 13, never had novacaine or anything, so I was like seriously freakin nervous. For me (idk if its the same for you but it should be about the same) here is what they did:





1) Numbing gel on gums


2) Shot *wait to numb about 10-15 mins*


3) Wiggle tooth back and forth


4) Its out!





*You dont feel much, just a tiny bit of pressure when they are pushing and wiggling the tooth, but you dont even know its out when it is! Since you have molars that are broken, it will probably be a little different. Good Luck!
