Will I be made comfortable during getting anesthesia for wisdom tooth removal?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Today I got my wisdom teeth pulled and they said they were gonna give me a shot in my mouth. There is no way I will be relaxed. Is there any option they would do for me to be more comfortable?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Yes, this is the only way to get local anesthesia. You can also go for general anesthesia but it will be too costly and needs hospitalization. It is a simple procedure, and you will only feel a prick like an insect bite. Do not worry, it is simple and there will be no pain during the procedure. If you are too apprehensive tell your doctor that apply some local anesthesia at the site of the prick, you will then even not feel the prick too.
