i dont want to scare you. they will numb
the teeth so you wont feel any thing.
then they will use a drill to get all bad
parts out. and then they will fill it with
the material that they use for fillings.
no sweat. it will be fine.

you will not feel the drill, that's what
the numbing is for at the beginning. when
they numb the area, you will feel a little
sting from the needle. that's about it as
far as discomfort. it's no big deal. just

Numbing Gel Posted: 10-30-07 10:49am
My dentist used a numbing gel on the area
where the needle goes in so I didn't feel
a thing even he put the needle in. Ask
your dentist if he or she will do the same
for you.

I've had several fillings, due to my
laziness. My dentists used a gel (flavor
of your choice) and after letting it sit
on my gums she injected me ( i ttly
freaked, but i didn't feel a thing and i
am terrified of needles. Just make sure
that you hold still or else you'll feel it
( i can say this from experience). I'am
always scared about going in to the
dentist, but after they clean out the
rotted part they fill it (don't run your
tongue ovr it during the process)! lol
anyways it's been a reminder to brush
better, especially now that i have braces-
joy joy!!
Hope all goes well

You've Got Nothing to Worry About. Posted: 12-06-07 19:41pm
I was horrified to here i had to have two
fillings last time i went to the dentist
as it was my first time. My b/f totally
freaked me out by going on about how they
jab u in the gum wit massive needle blah
blah blah but its all rubbish mate - well
u do have to have an injection in your gum
but it doesn't hurt hardly at all (and i'm
a massive wuss wen i cums to things like
this) The worst bit was wen he was
drilling the dead stuff away - it felt as
if he was drilling my whole flippin tooth
away really its miniscule, and that was
only bad coz of the vibrations in your
mouth but deffo no pain.
Just try to relax n pretend your floatin
on a cloud n you'll prob enjoy it lol =0)

Dentistry has come a long way, I know
because I have bad teeth. I also feel it
depends what dentist you go to. If you are
in the NY area check out my dentist.
Dr. Shawn Sadri He's really good and it
also helps that he's HOT. lol. hey if you
are gonna be at the dentist might as well
have a hot guy's hands in your mouth. lol
