I've never had stitches before. I might be traumatized for my life if I have to endure all of that with local. It'll be like having your flesh cut open while still being conscious. Even though I might not feel anything, I still can see the sights, needles, blood, and hear the cracking and smashing noises...

I have to talk to my dentist first and see if local is an option... the problem is he doesn't do consultation, I just have to go in and get it all yanked out on the same day. That is making me more anxious because I don't know what's going to happen... or if they are going to stick a tube down my throat. It appears that's how people die ... when they don't breathe on their own...
The werent grown out: they were still stuck in the gum and vertical ;)

The second wisdom tooth i got removed 3 weeks back and my dentist admitted he realised halfway it was a challenge.


They just open up your gum and pull your tooth out. Its a 3 minute operation and i guarantee youll be amazed how fast and smooth things go and youll look back thinking "was this it?".
