Discuss with dentist: We can not recommend either one without having your medical,history and evaluating the difficulty of the extraction. Discuss your concern with your dentist/oral,surgeon. Both procedures when done by well trained professionals aree safe. Nitrous is the safest. Get well

I'm having a: wisdom tooth pulled at next visit, just local anesthesia, I've done it before, no pain,not even with local after topical.

Recommended: IV Sedation is a safe and convenient procedure which will allow you to access dental care and surgical dental procedures without being aware or remember of the wisdom teeth removal. With the benefits of a little sedation and some local anesthetic, you will find the experience a lot less dramatic than your friends would have you believe. Good luck.
