An experienced professional will take good care of you. This is routine and nothing to worry about. Read a book - listen to music - go for a walk to keep your mind off it.

The Periodontist is very confident that he or she can extract this tooth. This is a small tooth, that is probably loose with little bone. You have had 5 other extractions with no problems. No need for general anesthesia, local is indicated .Get a good nights sleep and have a good breakfast.
