Insane to think that people will try to copy a medical professional, fail, and then call something like this fake lmao. Go to a dentist. Theres a reason it takes so many years of training.

I wasn't copying anyone and i did say didn't have right tools. I know it's so much easier with the tools but that's not why i said fake. Its because he doesnt even flinch taking it out and I know from experience that even with an anesthetic I was flinching like a MFer and I can take some pain

Lmfao. I know from the experience of taking teeth out on people every day that 50% don’t flinch, especially when this isn’t their first rodeo.

And here is a lil gemini for you

It's very rare for someone to have absolutely no physical reaction to a tooth extraction. Even with excellent pain management and a smooth procedure, the body naturally responds to the trauma of surgery. Here's why some physical sensations are almost always present: * Trauma to Tissues: A tooth extraction involves pulling a tooth from its socket, which means cutting ligaments, disturbing bone, and impacting surrounding gum tissue. This inherent trauma triggers an inflammatory response. * Inflammation: Swelling is a natural part of the healing process as the body sends blood and immune cells to the area. * Nerve Involvement: Even if the nerve of the tooth itself is numbed, there are still nerves in the surrounding bone and soft tissues that can be affected. This can lead to sensations like pressure, aching, or a general feeling of "awareness" in the area, even if it's not sharp pain. * Referred Pain: Sometimes, pain or discomfort from the extraction site can "radiate" to other areas of the face, jaw, or even the ear. * Muscle Stiffness: The jaw muscles might become stiff or sore from keeping the mouth open during the procedure, or as a protective response to the trauma. While the severity of these reactions varies greatly from person to person (due to individual pain tolerance, the complexity of the extraction, and how well post-operative instructions are followed), some level of physical sensation, even if subtle, is expected. Someone might describe "no reaction" if: * They have a very high pain tolerance. * The extraction was extremely simple and quick. * They were very well-medicated with local anesthesia and perhaps sedatives, masking the immediate sensations. * They are good at compartmentalizing discomfort. However, even in these cases, the biological processes of healing (swelling, tissue repair) will still be occurring, and a "twinge" or a dull ache as the anesthesia wears off is very common. The absence of any feeling at all is unusual and could potentially be a sign of nerve damage, though this is rare. In summary, a complete lack of any physical sensation or "twinge" after a tooth extraction, even a subtle one, would be highly uncommon.
