Will i be getting a shot / be on laughing gas when i get my tooth extracted?

Depends on situation: Talk to your dentist about what kind of anesthesia he/she plans to use. Tooth extraction may be done with local anesthesia alone, meaning that the area around the tooth is injected with numbing medicine. Sometimes the dentist may use nitrous oxide. Most adults will do well with local anesthesia alone unless they are very anxious; children may need more sedation or anesthesia.

Yes to the shot: You will get an injection for the removal of your tooth. Whether or not you receive laughing gas (nitrous) or not will depend on you and your dentist or surgeon who will be performing the procedure.
