I just got all four of my wisdom teeth removed this morning.

No pain yet. I went with the local anesthesia, and I don't regret that so far. I couldn't feel the teeth being taken out. I closed my eyes during the whole procedure 'cuz I knew if I saw the needle, knives, pliers, blood, teeth, I'd freak out. While the anesthesia was being administered, a few tears seeped out from under my lids. I couldn't hold them back. I was trembling a little too. After the procedure, I asked the dentist's assistant if most people find the administration of the anesthesia painful, and she said that most people react the same way I did.
