I got laughing gas and novacaine for a couple canines that were pulled, but that was over 10 years ago. I didn't feel anything, and I got to witness the entire procedure. It's just like Mooby says, some wiggling and pulling -- but these were not my wisdom teeth, mind you.
When I got my wisdom teeth pulled (about 7 years ago), they just put me under with general anesthetic. What they use, and how they do it probably depends on the doctor you go to, and your insurance. I'm willing to bet that you could find a doctor who will use the anesthesia you want.
