a feeling huh. she probably wants to inject you in places where she wants to feel you so you cant tell where shes "feeling" you
Hey i just got back from the dentist, and needed a feeling. She wanted to give me an injection and i was like wtf and told her im out of here.
Do u really need an injection to do a feeling?? cause last time the other dentist just went straight drill n clean the inside and filled it without any injections.
Im fine with my back teeths, and she wanted to put some plastic coat on it so the food doesnt get stuck between the teeths on top of the teeth.
Im still havin thoughts about it should i go ahead with it, what does it feel like gettin an injection into the gums btw????
theyfor being chicken ....

Feelings, nothing more than feelings,
Trying to forget my feelings of teeth.
Teardrops rolling down on my face,
Trying to forget my feelings of teeth...
If they give you an injection, it's so you won't have any feelings.
But yes, in many (most?) instances numbing is advised for a filling.

Yes, an injection to numb your mouth is pretty standard for a filling.
trust me you want the injection. espcially if it;s a deep cavity.
it;s not liek she was trying to put you top sleep & take your wallet.
she was trying to make it less painfull for you.
No kidding ... you'd change your mind as soon as he started drilling to clean out the decayed tooth and hit a nerve or a little gum tissue...or even the vibration on the tooth drives me up the wall. I'm sure they did do it on other time(s), but most will numb the area with a topical anesthetic before they give you the shot so it doesn't hurt so bad...you may not have even noticed.
I had 27 injections when I had my wisdom teeth extracted so I wouldn't have any feelings.
If you had drilling done without an injection, then you didn't get a deep drilling.Hey i just got back from the dentist, and needed a feeling. She wanted to give me an injection and i was like wtf and told her im out of here.

I've had SMALL fillings put in without anesthesia...but if the dentist wants to numb you up, it's most likely not a small one.
It's not like you will be unconscious...it justs numbs the area around that tooth (at worst, maybe half your mouth will go numb).
The injection stings a little bit...but if you're worried about it feeling like a "regular" injection into your arm, it's nowhere near as bad (I hate those too). Usually, the dentist puts a "topical" anesthetic on the spot where the needle is going to go...that reduces the pain quite a bit. (But, to be honest with you, the pain doesn't COMPLETELY go away).
I would say the injection is more "uncomfortable" than "painful".
My dad was a dentist...and he wouldn't pull mine. He didn't like to numb up an entire mouth...he always felt that if you needed to do that much work, you're better off going under. And putting people under is what dental surgeons do. So he actually had someone else come in to pull mine.No kidding ... you'd change your mind as soon as he started drilling to clean out the decayed tooth and hit a nerve or a little gum tissue...or even the vibration on the tooth drives me up the wall.

He was a dental surgeon ... but he'd only numb each side as he was working on it ... and every time I started to feel the tingle I'd tell him and he'd give me another shot. He didn't want to put me completely under because it can make you sick when you wake up and just didn't like to do it if he didn't have to...throwing up can cause dry sockets. It took so many shots because only 1 out of the 4 popped right out, he had to break the others off in pieces...which probably would explain why the pain was so intense after all was said and done that nothing short of an overdose would alleviate it.
Thank God I don't ever have to do that again.
What was really gross is when I was driving home my mouth was still really numb and bloody and I forgot to bring any kind of towel with me in the car. You can only imagine what the front of my shirt looked like.
Mine had to be dug out too...I didn't have a straight root in the bunch...He was a dental surgeon ... but he'd only numb each side as he was working on it ... and every time I started to feel the tingle I'd tell him and he'd give me another shot.

I (obviously) didn't drive home afterwards...my dad drove me home. I slept most of the next 18 hours, too.
I remember running through the initial medication and going to my dad to write a refill. "Nothing doing...take aspirin and gargle with salt water". He gave me codeine to start with, and wasn't about to give me more...I was NOT happy about that...
My mom was giving me pretty much everything she had ... and yes, she's was always one to have an extensive stash.
When my niece had her wisdom teeth extracted, she was so out of it that her boyfriend had to carry her out of the office in his arms like a baby.
I am sooooo glad I never had to have my wisdom teeth taken out. I have all four with room to spare.
waits for Travis to come up with a smart ass comment about a big mouth

Moi???You wound me, Sunshine...
I don't know about travis, but I wish my mouth was bigger.
One of my suitemates in college was from Malaysia and he claimed he had never had a filling done with novocaine until he came to the U.S.
In the last 1.5 years, I've had: two root canals, a wisdom tooth extraction, a "crown lengthening" (i.e., a "gum lowering"), two crowns and two fillings. By far the worst was the crown lengthening. Imagine somebody taking a small crowbar and scraping your gums down.
My dentist is so hot.
I hate when he talks to me with his fingers in my mouth, though, I drool all over myself trying to respond. Jerk.
Are you talking about what he does during a dental appointment now?
They did that to me (or something similar) when I got the bands for my braces put on my molars many years ago. I totally empathize ... 17 years later I still remember that pain.
Of course, what else would I be talking about?
I bet yah he enjoyed it
okay i made up my mind, its actually cheaper to go through this bulk billing instead of goin to a private place which cost more.....
Are you one of my patients???
