Notes -
I was awake for my wisdom teeth removals (yes, plural!) as well. Mine never bothered me, except that a couple got infected over the years so those were removed. They don't bother to knock you out for just one tooth, which was fine with me. The main thing that I found striking was that it's psychologically very weird. There's a part of your brain that recognizes that what's going on should really hurt and is bracing for it, but the pain never kicks in due to the local anesthetic. It's a very bizarre sensation.
