Meh...
I have had 4 teeth pulled, and 5 broken off all without any Novocaine...
Not quite as many for me, but I had two wisdom teeth removed sans pain killers when clearing post in '89. Doc said I was CAT 4 non-deployable if I didn't get it done and I only had one more day to finish clearing before I was wheels up. He wanted to put me on Quarters. NOT!! Couple of tylenols and I was on my way.
