When I was in the Navy in Keflavik, Iceland, I had to have all 4 of mine removed. The only anesthetic I received was novacaine and all of the roots on each of the teeth were hooked under. The dentist literally had to break the teeth into pieces in my mouth and suck them out with this vacuum thing.

It was the worst feeling I've ever had in my life. I can still hear them breaking. Like TMC said, the dentist/torturer puts his weight against you while he tries to get enough leverage to break your teeth. After it was over, I got a prescription for percaset (sp?) which I'm happy to report is a wonderful drug.

PS- I doubt they do this at civilian dentists so you should be fine.
