And from my experience, I've learned that you have to be calm. The dentist is going to try and make this as painless as possible for you. Just relax. If you aren't relaxing, it hurts more, trust me. And you can barely feel it when they put the nova cane in anyway because of the numbing gel.

After, your mouth will feel really big and numb, but don't worry, you look normal. That should go away in a couple hours. Keep the goz in until your gums stop bleeding. Then take some advil, because the real pain comes afterwards.

It's really not a huge deal, since you're only getting one done. I've gone to dance right after getting an extraction...twice.

Also, for a few days you have a gaping hole in your gum line so that's cool to scare your friends with.
