They gave me something, and I was right out. Then when they injected me with the Novocain, I woke up... for two seconds. I was out again immediately.
When I work up, the two impacted teeth were gone. (I'd previously had a not impacted pair pulled without incident). But I am told that I (1) giggled uncontrollably, (2) attempted to walk off the deck of the second floor office, (3) thought I could drive myself home, (4) wanted to go get a steak dinner.
I remember none of this.
Definitely use the little curved syringe thing they'll give you to irrigate the socket. You DO NOT WANT a dry socket.
