Some dentists use lasers now to numb the jaw in addition to anaesthetic so it hurts less @Bill16 They are relatively new on the market. They are about the size of a portable airconditioner unit. They have a digital readout menu panel to select features from and the dentist clicks on where it says numbing and the laser hand held implement which is connected to the machine will penetrate your jaw with laser light to calm your jaw so you feel no pain. I can understand your apprehension though. I was feeling the same way!

I thought of that but didn't want to risk it @TAB and I'll tell you why. Had a friend in years gone by have an extraction and the whole mouth ended up getting infected. Most of her teeth had to come out after that. I thought it may be better for peace of mind plus saving a huge dental bill. I only got $35 off from Bupa on Friday btw.
