Far better than any other kind of tooth fixing. <BR/><BR/>I have weak teeth due to braces as a kid, so I've had more fillings than I care to admit. Enough that I now occasionaly have fillings done without being numbed. I'm just used to it. <BR/><BR/>It really isn't bad at all. There's a tiny pinch when they numb your mouth, and that's it. No pain afterwards at all.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07345875955750219033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-1163714630440321422006-11-16T17:03:00.000-05:002006-11-16T17:03:00.000-05:00I promise, cross my heart, that it does not hurt A...I promise, cross my heart, that it does not hurt AT ALL. I am terrified of dentists, and it doesn't hurt a bit. Getting blood drawn or a shot is 10 times worse. They either jiggle the cheek like someone said and then you literally don't feel it at all, or they numb it first with gel and then you don't feel it. SO much easier than going to the regular doctor.halloweenloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05226515861332754382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-1163693084708851672006-11-16T11:04:00.000-05:002006-11-16T11:04:00.000-05:00That I laughed during a post about dentists is tes...That I laughed during a post about dentists is testamnt to a certain level of genius.Her Bad Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03535958887714152413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-1163644261533791862006-11-15T21:31:00.000-05:002006-11-15T21:31:00.000-05:00Make sure you get porcelin and not silver amalgams...Make sure you get porcelin and not silver amalgams.

Last summer I had two cavities taken care of. What's up with that? Is it that having babies and nursing drains your teeth of their nutrients? I remember as a kid that it really wasn't that big a deal to get the shot and have them drill and fill the holes. I went in confident it was no big deal. OH.MY.ACHING.GUMS. I hurt for a week afterwards. I swear they bruised my mouth. Not too fond of that dentist, will be looking for another one.
