I am getting all four pulled at once. Thank God they are sedating me.

I am petrified because I hate dentists and oral surgeons

Any words of wisdom so I can minimize suffering?

Thanks!

I had the same thing done a few years ago...all four, put to sleep. I was so scared and it was NOTHING compared to what I thought it would be. Of course you'll be queasy from the anesthetics, but you won't be half as bad as you are thinking you'll be. You'll have pain meds which will help and will want to sleep off the anesthesia....you'll be fine and SO happy when it's over.
