Getting a root canal.

What could possibly be comfortable about getting a needle jabbed into your gums followed by a drill boring into a nerve ending?

when they have to put the metal rod in the middle of the tooth intoo the jaw ahhh man talk bout pain

The grinding. Your doctor can give you anti-anxiety pills before you go in if you need them.

I sure did.

I had a root canal was not bad at all

The needles to "kill the pain" - ironic, isn't it?

the part where they stab you again and again with a needle, and leave you in agonizing pain with blood all over your body. I heard that if they dont do it right, your head falls off. its true.

The shots to numb your mouth. In years past it was very bad as they spent hours and then they stitched up your mouth. Now they can do it in one or at most two appointments. Years ago I spent four hours at one setting for a root canal and then had to go back to take out stitches. Nothing to it now in comparing.

The entire procedure. from the shots, to keeping your jaw open for hours to the sounds of the instruments in your mouth to the smeel from the root canal it stinksssssssss

The procedure takes a while, so your mouth is open a long time. A good endodontist will be sure you have no pain. Mine was so good, I didn't even feel the shot of Novacain. The most painful part is paying the bill!

Last time I went to students at my local dentistry college and the most uncomfortable part of the whole thing was the lack of freezing 1/2 an hour into it.
NEVER GO TO A STUDENT TO GET THIS DONE! Professionals only

THE NOVICANE

having to keep your mouth open for an hour of longer, root canal's are a very timely process.

PAYING!!
