i had a molar pulled 2 weeks ago, it was a dead tooth, had 4 novacaine shots which was the worst part. i was extremely scared and he yanked it out in 5 minutes, then i said "that's it? it came out in a couple of tugs but i was scarry until it came out all the way. it left a whole in the back of my gum which is still healing. i don't feel any pain, just the first day.
