i am afraid it will hurt when they pull the gums away and sew it up .....i dont care if it hurts the next day or later that day... i am scared i will feel them cutting the gums

oh god it was terrible there was blood everywhere and i could see smoke and the pain oh god the pain i recently had to get surgery on my gums, to have a tooth being exposed, I was kind of scared. The only thing that hurt was getting numbed becuase i chose to get the shot. But other then that i felt nothing. It was actually kind of cool for my mouth to be so numb. I had 7 stitches. ??? When I had oral surgery, I was put to sleep. Didn't feel a thing. i had my tooth exsposed and it didn't hurt because i was sleeping i had three stitches and trust me i was really nervous as well but don't be its not that bad What surgery are you talking about? Wisdom tooth extraction? The actually surgery isn't so bad. It's after all the numbnes wears off. Make sure they give you good painkillers to take for the next couple of days. And follow directions that the dentist gives you. I had 7 pulled out at the same time, as long as they give you novacaine to numb your mouth and gums it will not hurt you will not feel it. and afterwards make sure you eat on the opposite sides and have a shake for a couple of hours instead of normal food. you don't want anything near it, the dentist will tell you how to take care of it. I recently had my molars surgically removed and they put me to sleep while they did it so I didn't fell a thing.. until I woke up then it hurt like heck. I had 3 disolveable stitches on each but if you are not put to sleep I don't know what to tell you. If your not pain tolerant like me get knocked out just to be safe if your scared. What surgery are you talking about? totally asleep from the anesthetic; no pain; didn't remember a thing. had three stitches on both sides.Woke up, went home, fell asleep again and when I did wake up the pain pills got rid of any pain. You shouldn't feel anything. If you do you should definitely ask for more numbing medication. I didn't feel them cutting the gum the last time I had oral surgery and I think I had about three or four stitches and that was it. Also be sure that oyu get a perscription for pain medication to take after and always take your first pain meds on the day of surgery before the anasthesia wears off if they don't knock you out.
