Has anyone had extractions done under just novacaine? How torturous is it?
My only experience with having teeth pulled was my wisdom teeth, and I was full under in a short procedure unit of a hospital for that.

I had extractions done under just novacaine done when I was about 12... I don't remember it being that painful.
I recently went to the dentist because I have dental insurance now and it had been a LOOOOOONG time since I had been. Long story short, two cavities - one that is a possible root canal and deep cleanings every 3 months. Most of which is happening wednesday, 4/8.
