I just started going to a new orthodontist yesterday. My old orthodontist put braces on my teeth WAY too early, and wasn't very patient with me. The new one is very nice, and I'm glad I switched. Even so, the new orthodontist just told me I have to get a baby tooth pulled by the end of the year so my other teeth don't get messed up. As soon as I heard this, my natural reaction was: "Will it hurt? What will the dentist do? Will he use a drill? Will I see blood? Will I be asleep?" The only answer I got was "Don't be scared, it'll be fine." I'm scared and confused, and I've been asking more questions than gettting answers. I was hoping I could get some help on this forum since I'm scared of going to the dentist. Please, is there anyone out there who can answer my questions, I'm really scared!!!
 
Oh yeah, and for anyone who didn't want to read all that, here's the summary:
