Just get them pulled! I got them pulled all at once, I was so scared because I never had surgery before and also never an IV. For me the IV kind of hurt, I really hate needles. Plus the worst part was bleeding, I don't think I have ever bled so much from a cut, it was really gross. Plus my jaw was sore for almost a month, I could not open my mouth really wide for almost 3 week afterwards, I had to use a heating pad to try and relax my jaw. Plus I never had stitches so that freaked me out too.

But I got put to sleep during the operation so I don't remmeber anything! Just pay extra and get put to sleep (conscious sedation). It's really the only way to go!

Also I had no pain afterwards really. I was phobic about pain and kept taking the Vicoding and it made me sick because I was taking it on an empty stomach. Other than that, the pain was jus "soreness" but I can't say it was real pain, and I am a wimp. When I get stomach cramps, it hurts much more than the pain from getting the teeth out!

And yea, of course you can die but it's NOT very likely, the chances are really small, mostly people have problems (when they do) with the anaesthesia but it's very rare, plus it's mild anaesthesia they use, NOT general anaesthesia so
if u are helahty u should hae no problems!
