I had one pulled from the bottom of my mouth a couple of years ago too, it was similarly horrendous. I suppose, as much as we make amazing medical advancements in a lot of fields, there's never really going to be a version of that process that doesn't just boil down to "hold still while I forcibly yank this out of your head".
I can remember the dentists assistant being ridiculously attractive, and therefore trying my best (but no doubt failing miserably) to pretend the whole thing didn't bother me one bit.
It also resulted in the only hospital trip I've ever had to make in my entire life later that evening too, to get the gum stitched back together because it wouldn't stop bleeding.
