Kicking and screaming. My old dentist was my brother in law. He's actually a orthodontist/dentist who put himself through school.(he comes from a wealthy family). He's awesome! You can't feel his shots and if you're in a lot of pain he'll give you another shot(per your request, and only up to the number of shots it would take to pull out a tooth. Otherwise complications could occur). But Last time.... I had a tooth with a cavity on my lower tooth third from the center on my left. Well he gave me gas ( I was feeling pretty good), then he gave me my shots (everythings fine) then he comes back and begins working(UH OH) I could feel every little move he made!!! He gave me another shot(still could feel every move), then I continue crying (he tells me I shouldn't be feeling anything because he gave me enough shots to pull a tooth out).
So I know this is bad but I've put off the dentist for a while now (three or four years) because I haven't had the money and because the next dentist I go to is going to HAVE TO put me under. I have a hole in that tooth and I'm just going to have them pull it out. Otherwise it'll need a root canal. But either way I'm getting it out and getting a fake one put in. (I know that if I do need a root canal, and I probably will, they'll still have to perform that. but I'm set on it getting taken out). I'll wait a little to have my fake tooth put in, because I'll be broke for awhile but that's life. I just wish I would have done it sooner, wish I had the money to. That's really what's been holding me back. Well that and my fear of a new strange person poking around my mouth.
Of all the doctors to go to I prefer the gyno. |
