And, Silver Cheetah... *sniff* I have to get all my wisdom teeth pulled soon. I'd almost forgotten.

Oh, honey, don't worry! I had mine out just two years ago (at age 30). They were aggravating my migraines. I'd never had dental work other than a cleaning before and I was nervous. Getting you numbed up is the only really bad part. I had to keep my mind on other things because I'm not too keen on needles, but it was over before I knew it. No biggie.
From the time he gave me the first shot of novacaine to the time he pulled out the last tooth - 20 minutes. You're even luckier if you get to 'go to sleep' during the process like my Mom did when she was about 17. She REALLY doesn't like needles, so the had to anesthetize her. I had mine out two days before Thanksgiving, still cooked the entire meal for my parents, etc. AND managed to eat Thanksgiving dinner! (Very small bites of only the 'soft' stuff, but I ate!)
Then, I had pain for, maybe a week, but they prescribed me some really nice Naproxin (very strong ibuprofen, I think). That made me just not care too much if I hurt or not!
You'll do fine. It'll be OK, I'm sure.
