In order to hang on to some of them, she had to have 11 root/canals & caps put on at age 3 1/2, but I put it off till she was 5 cause I couldn't bear to have her go through so much, so young.
We had her put out, and I am glad we went this route. She woke up in no pain, and none the wiser. 
You'll be fine, hun!

Versed is a wonderful drug, IMO. I cannot imagine anyone enduring 12 extractions at one time without some kind of true sedation...adult extractions can be tricky, as the tooth can split, and that makes it more difficult.
The only downside I experienced was that I had to pay for the sedation (not that I would have let that stand in the way of my sleeping through the entire procedure).
