Reply:They have special instruments called "Elevators" that can help loosen the tooth and push it up a bit and then they grab it with forceps. If that doesn't work surgery may be necessary they usually cut the gums and then cut into the bone holding the tooth in to get it out. Don't let any of this scare you you'll be numb the whole time. You can go to a specialist that can knock you out if you need it. It can be a difficult procedure depending on how stubborn the tooth is and the dentist's experience.
Reply:They will numb the area,and drill it some to get an opening going,then they take dental pliers and removed the entire piece or pieces.It's not all that bad,just ask for Motrin 800mg. and take with food after the numbness wheres off. =)
