I hardly brush my teeth.

Its the secret to keeping healthy teeth imo.

I thought a chip of the tooth was not to do with decay? Two posts and no votes. :nono:

 

[T14086]

Where did you say chip off tooth?

someone sticks a needle in your gum
pain is subjective
when i had an abcess under an impacted wisdom tooth they could have used a black and decker with whiskey as anesthetic for all i cared.

life isnt a poll.just get on with it

 

[KeepItFiat]

Ok thanks for your thoughts Custard.

 

[Stu DemonD]

Dental injections don't bother me.

 

[vtec]

if ya dont brush your teeth then there not gonna be as strong as the should be so will break easier., and as for the pain of the needle, it didnt bother me at all, especially compared to the pain you'd have before going to the dentist, I broke 2 back teeth in a accident and i wouldnt mind having a chainsaw in my mouth if it would make that pain go away.,

 

[Alan.D]

Depends on your pain threshold, for some it will be nothing for others it will be agony, just hope yours will be nothing..

 

[mcmozza]

I got given a numb injection, then the dentist made me wait in the waiting room for half 35 mins before i had a fillling. By then the anaesthetic had started to wear off anyway. So yeh, i hate dentists.

i actually enjoy the needle, its a cold sharp pain that feels good.

 

[vtec]

i felt nothing bit a little pinch and then there was no pain after that, it feels weird though when your all numb but nothing bad,., ill never understand people who are scared of dentists, the pain of a toothache is are more annoying than the needle.,lol

If you don't brush your teeth, this is what happens

And does it hurt? Let's see... It's kind of akin to having a 6" nail smashed into your jaw with a mallet. Don't do anything about your toothache and it will feel like a red hot piece piece of coal in between you tooth and gum. You takes your choice...

Only joking! You'll feel a little prick (HAHAHAHAHAHA!) when they give you the numb injection. Once it takes effect you'll feel no pain at all when the work is being done. And I always found that the anaesthetic worked better after I'd finished at the dentist and was on my way home.

Now, stop being a wuss and go and get it sorted before we have a poll on "Shall I chop my head off or get my really painful bad tooth sorted out" :bang:

Never had one myself so hasnt hurt me.....

Not strictly true,its not uncommon to have repeated injections and still feel the pain/not going numb.I had 5 & still felt every part of the extraction.
