I am in the lucky position in that my dentist is a very close personal friend, who grew up with my father. He is a great guy, never had any problems.

This is bad because it means I always end up biting my cheek badly. The flow of blood in my mouth always freaks me out a lil.

*Shudder* I hate novacaine... I hate the aftereffects, feeling all numb and drooling all over yourself, not to mention the sight of someone cramming a huge needle in my mouth isnt the most pleasant thing to behold. Last time I had a cavity drilled, I did it without novacaine. It didnt hurt as bad as I thought it would, but I certainly left some nice hand-shaped indentations on the arm of the chair. I wish there was some other form of anasthesia that didnt leave one feeling so nasty after it is done.
