I've had several teeth pulled, and I was terrified too.
All you have to do is relax.
I know from experience, if you panic, it just makes the situation seem 100 times worse.
They're probably going to give you laughing gas.
And then they'll probably use some novacaine to numb you up in back.
It's so easy from there. If it makes you feel better, ask whoever is pulling the teeth if you would be able to bring an MP3 or CD player so you can listen to it as they're pulling your teeth.
I did that when I got some of my teeth pulled and it just totally took my mind of what they were doing.
So just relax!
I hope this helped! :]

when i had mine dun (i had four and did two at a time... awake!) i tried to have some chamomile tea and other calming stuff like a bath and walk etc... before my appointment by a day. my procedure was brutal tho. they had to drill the jaw to remove the tooth coz it was stuck under the jaw and the tooth rite next to it. anyway believe it or not that wasn't what freaked me out it was the anesthesia injection that was killing my nerves ( i have a hugggggggge fear of needles!) anyway i got there closed my eyes and thot of my guy. if your getting the laughing thats all the more better since not even your guy will be as cheerful as the gas's effect. seriously you laugh like crazy.
oh and get your ipod.
one more thing that may help. the reason the doc is giving you the anesthesia and gas are to make you NOT feel the pain. so relax. :) dnt go under the sun after and make sure you freeze ice packs and have pain killers at home in case needed once the pain wears of. plus if you keep bleeding just gargle with salt diluted in water. you'll be fineee! :)))

Hey, well i was born with too many teeth in my mouth. Therefore, i had to get 12 pulled. Not all at once though, I got about 4 done at a time. I got novicane(sp?) and laughing gas. It wasnt all that bad. Its just a little pinching feeling for the novicane and your laughing so its not that bad. You just have to accept that fact that its going to happen and try to make the best of it no matter how hard it is. Good luck.
