When I was a kid and my primary teeth started loosening up my Dad would pull them. He wouldn't just pull them, he had to make a big show of it. He'd get a hammer and chisel, or a crow bar...... but when it came right down to it he'd either use his fingers or a pair of dentists pliers. I probably pulled 4 or 5 of last ones myself.
Had to had my wisdom teeth surgically removed. Slept through that. Only had one other permanent tooth pulled. It was excruciating. Dentist gave me a shot of Novocaine but didn't wait long enough for it to work. Then he wasn't strong enough to pull the tooth. It took at least three minutes of him wiggly and pulling on that tooth. He was pulling so hard the dental assistant was laying on top me trying to hold me down. Dislocated my jaw. Bone and tooth splinters worked their way through my gums for several months. All in all not a pleasant experience!
Told a buddy about it. He suggested that when the dentist was ready to pull the tooth I should have reached over and grabbed the dentist by the balls and said we're not going to hurt each other, are we?
Same tooth on the other side needs a root canal and crown. $2500. Or it needs to be pulled. $150.
I haven't decided which route I'm going to go, but if it's coming out that dentist is not going to be the one pulling it!

I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
