How painful is it taking a tooth out?

Not at all: Removal of teeth is smooth and easy. Make sure the doctor well trained. Most oral surgeons are quick and efficient at removing teeth. Removal of infected teeth can be painful sometimes due to the inability of the anesthetic shots to be fully effective. You can consider sedation if this is the case. Goo luck!
