I'm not sure about a tooth removal but I had a root canal done 5days ago it was pretty painful because they could only give me a certain amount of anesthetic.

I had 1 removed. I was awake & aware.  It took a while to get numb, but it wasn't as bad as I had anticipated.  I do have a fairly high threshold for pain though.
