Is getting your wisdom teeth pulled worse/the same than getting other teeth pulled??

I have had a couple adult teeth pulled before with just laughing gas and novocaine.


I think my wisdom teeth are comeing in, and i was wondering if getting them pulled hurts more or the same as getting other teeth pulled??





Also what is an impacted tooth?

Is getting your wisdom teeth pulled worse/the same than getting other teeth pulled??
i got my wisdom teeth taken out two at a time at age 23


at first i was nervous about it, and asked to be put to sleep during the process. the dentist said the procedure would be so quick, there was no need. she was right! it was pretty much one, two, three. she gave me an extra shot of novacaine when i told her my gums were extra sensitive to pain, so im sure that helped a lot. i felt NO pain, just a tugging sensation, then out came the tooth.





i think an impacted tooth is when the tooth grows in at an angle and pushes the rest of your teeth together causing a lot of pain. the link below has a section on it.





good luck!
Reply:its not really bad...u get anestetic [spelled wrong, sry] (the stuff that puts u 2 sleep) then you wake up...in a couple hours you feel some pain...but its not too bad, eat soft food and drink milkshakes and smoothies.........but dont eat right after u wake up, u will feel sick...........and its about the same as getting normal teeth pulled
Reply:Wisdom teeth are generally a lot easier to extract than other teeth.





But if your wisdom teeth are just coming in, you must be fairly young. Why are you having adult teeth pulled at such a young age?





An impacted tooth is one where the gums are growing over the tooth, and I think it only happens to wisdom teeth.





And by the way, don't have them pulled unless you really need to.
Reply:Nope. I've had all of my Wisdom Teeth pulled- %26amp; it's NO worse than having any of the Others out... However, I've never had an Impacted Tooth (-that noise you hear- is me Knocking on wood!)... -So I can't help you there. Whatever the case though, it's nothing to worry about. It's the Worrying %26amp; the WAITING- that's the Hard part! -You'll be fine. :)
Reply:I had 4 teeth pulled and then got my wisdom teeth pulled and some cut out, most people get put to sleep, but since I can't then I was awake though the whole thing, it was worse than the other teeth, it hurt and I had to have them give me more pain medicine, like 4 more times, and after that, you have to clean them very good and take alot of medicine, and they put stitches in them, well they did mine because I had some cut out
