Why does having a tooth pulled out (by yourself) hurt so much?
There are attachments from your gums to your tooth (called periodontal ligament). These have to be broken before the tooth will come out. Hopefully this isn't an adult tooth, or it should be taken out by a professional.
Reply:reflexive apprehension that comes from knowing exactly when and where you will feel the pain.





if someone else is pulling your tooth, you don't "hurt" until you've already felt the pain and the act is done with...
Reply:because you know that the pain is coming... when someone else does it you don't really know exactly when their gonna do it ... but when they do it it doesn't hurt as bad because u wasnt expecting it.
Reply:because you have a lot of NERVE ENDINGS in your mouth. Don't pull it, it must not be ready OR go to the dentist!!!
Reply:Because you're not a dentist.


Get it done right and comfortably if the tooth needs to come out.





Best wishes.
Reply:Sounds like what they call an eye tooth.I had one pulled and even with triple doses of Novocaine it hurt like heck.


I would advise you to go to a dentist because the roots are long.Which is why they call it an eye tooth because the pain shoots to the eye.

Reply:It is very likely infected. Is there any way you can go to a dentist? What are you using to deaden the pain? You know if you go to the dentist he will give you something so you feel little or no pain? Also he will let you know if it is infected and give you something to get rid of or stop infection...





If you have no other choice and can not go to an emergency room or a dentist... than get clove oil and mix it with olive oil or any edible oil and soak the root area. Than get someone to help you pull it or just wait until it comes out on its own. But be ready for a lot of bleeding and a lot of pain and also more infection... I would go get professional help. By the way Cayenne pepper is good for stopping bleeding in case you really do start bleeding bad from pulling it out yourself...





Please if it gets much more painful go to an emergency room. Infections can be very dangerous.
Reply:It could be that your not pulling it correctly and already know that pain is coming. When a dentist pulls a teeth, it is quick. But when a person pulls it it is much harder for them to do that. I hope this helps.
Reply:It hurt when you try to pull it because you are not a professional. You don't know what you are doing and you didn't numb your mouth.
