Hey ladies. I'm getting my 4 wisdom teeth removed tomorrow. However, the dental clinic I'm going to doesn't offer anesthesia. They perform the surgery with just numbing agents, so I'll be awake during the process, and I'm very nervous. Has anyone had oral surgery done with just numbing agents before???

I had my top ones removed with just numbing! The numbing shot was the worst part- there was a LOT of intense pressure but no pain.

Oh, that sounds rough! Thankfully all 4 teeth are through my gums, and 3 of them are straight. One of my bottom wisdom teeth is just a LITTLE crooked, and about 90% through my gums

Good to know! Thank you!

I just had my lower bottom removed today using only local. It was a bit uncomfortable because you heard/felt a lot of pressure and cracking. I had a huge cavity, so they had to essentially do half at a time. I’d be a bit stressed if I had to do 4 teeth but supposedly the top ones are easier than the bottoms. As nerve-wracking as it was, it was over pretty quickly! It will be fine!

Thank you!

You can also ask them for a Valium or other medication to relax you!
