lemme preface this: 1. I hate dentists..2..i really hate dentists...3. I feel they are more sadistic than cats that don't just kill the mouse, but toys with it until it becomes bored, then kills it...4. i'm deathly afraid of dentists...
now...lemme tell you how my root canal experience went:
1. go to office
2. get a few shots to numb mouth/tooth
3. watch on monitor as he drills and cuts and scrapes away...i'm tense, but loosen up as i didn't feel any pain
4. get up an hour later after what he called a 'very complicated procedure" bc i had several smaller roots that weren't showing up well until you dug deeper.
5. wait a few seconds to orient myself
6. pay the bill..yes, this was the most painful part for me....no dental insurance....
7...go home, relax, get the feeling back in, i think i worked that night....oh wait, no...i'm wrong, i went shopping afterwards and walked around and then went to work. either way, no real after effects other than a mild headache from lying down too long.
no probs since then.
