Off to get my cavity filled!

First one ever..........I wonder if they have much experience with 43 year old women crying! Wish me luck!

Aw Susie, good luck You'll do fine!

good luck. ask for the gas and air , it works wonders lol (some dentists do this) i need it to even sit in the chair lol

good luck!! don't be afraid to ask for more novacaine!

Well, I"m back and at work. I gotta tell ya, I either have the most gentle dentist in the world, or it was a fluke, because it went very well. Nothing hurt, not the novacaine or anything...........

Good for you! It's not that bad, but I can remember it being horrible when I was a little girl!

It's STILL horrible for me NOW!

I'm glad you made it through without any problems!!!

I have to wonder if it's the difference in dentists?????

it could be! I've had lots of cavities though and never had a problem, no matter who was doing the filling! glad it went well Susie!

Must not have used the big giant drill!

That drill noise was an annoying noise, that's for sure, but no big deal.....

Yes, there can be a difference with dentists. I went to one who was a sadist when I was a kid, and to this day I have terrible phobias when it comes to anything dentist, and I have a mouth full of expensive problems.

I think I have now bought several brand new cars for my dentist and periodontist as a result. I have to go every three months for cleaning, and that's the EASY part.

I will spare you the gory details.

I'm glad everything went so well for you Susie!
