How can it feel to have your teeth pulled out?

Extraction..: You will usually not experience any pain during the actual teeth extraction since you will likely be numb. However there will be some discomfort afterwards. Your dentist will provide you with a prescription to minimize pain and will also advise you with proper care including dietary advise in order to minimize discomfort after the procedure.

Pressure: Thanks to modern anesthetics you should feel, at the most, some pressure. If you can save your teeth, do so. If they have to be removed, they should be replaces as soon as possible. Please consult with your dentist.

Pulling a tooth.: If the dentist has administered enough anesthetic so that there is no pain during the extraction, then you can experience anything from a slight tug or pulling feeling all the way to some significant pressure during the procedure. You might hear some cracking of the bone or he/she might lean on your jaw a bit for leverage. The important thing is to be numb during the procedure.

Pressure: If the dentist sufficiently numbs your mouth, you should feel only pressure, no pain during tooth extraction.
