Is it as scary as people have said? I get it done tomorrow morning -- Is it painful? I'm very scared about it, I guess..

If you have a good dentist, it's a piece of cake. I've had 4 in the same day and it's really no biggie. ;) Try to relax, take the gas, get through the first shot, and you'll be fine. :)
Good luck. :)

Don't worry, your dentist will make sure it all "sleeps" there. You will hear a lot, but won't feel a thing :) Good luck!

I've had them before...they are not bad. My dentist always makes sure you are numbed (novacaine & gas if you want it), comfy (warm blanket, headphones, aromatherapy) and relaxed. I actually fell asleep during the last one, I got so comfy.

I've never had one before, but to tell you the truth, everyone I know that has has one, says they are easy.
I think someone on PT had one done a few weeks ago?
Anyway, I hope its very easy and as pain free as possible for you.
Hugs,
Kelly :)

I had one a month ago and it really wasn't bad. Even the novacaine shot was deadened with a patch before he shot me up.
I had it done at 3:30 and ate dinner at 8 with no problem---well, maybe a little drooling:rolleyes:
Not something you volunteer for every other day, but truely bearable.
