If you've ever had the rear wisdom teeth decay, it's a helluva lot more painful than having them extracted. Be thankful for at least a minute that you had them removed; which is at least a dull pain, curable by drugs.

The worst thing that's happened in my mouth was this "Palletal expander" expensive peice of crap! wrapped around 2 molars on the top with this expandable bridge.
This created several problems:
Stuff getting stuck between the thing and the roof of my mouth(my bro had the same thing, he almost had to go to the hospital when a peanut jammed itself inbetween and wouldn't come out(for almost a day))
Expanding consisted of a key in a little mechanism and every turn was a little bit farther out. This created massive, never ending pain(was tightened every other night, so as I was finally getting use to the new pain it was increased), and they had to come out with a new key after a lot of people ended up swollowing and chocking on the keys(the newer ones had a finger ring so they wouldn't fall).
Teeth staining.
uneven teeth
bleeding
And over all, it forced the braces to work harder to correct what damage this crap caused(it expanded my upper jaw more than needed, so braces had to pull it back in
And to this day we really donno why me and my bro had that in the first place....
BTW, they were on for about a year or more.

Well, I haven't had mine pulled out yet, but it looks like rest assured that it won't hurt one bit!
I've had two teeth pulled out at the same time, 3 times (my two top front teeth when I was 5, and the four teeth in front of the canines pulled on two separate occassions)... good grief, it's usually the shot that hurts me, not the actual pulling!
