When you are under IV sedation, can you feel them giving you novocaine?

I am very scared to go to the dentsit and I'm getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed!
Answer:
As a dentist I can tell you that there are various levels of sedation (ex: light or deep sedation). Either way, you should not feel any pain while your dentist is injecting the Lidocaine which is used to block the nerve from feeling any pain. Good luck and don't worry, just sit back, relax and everything will be fine.
Depends on the LEVEL of sedation (there are various levels) and what kind of iv medication is used for sedation. You might feel the novocaine injection but you may not remember it afterwards!
