It's not a big deal.

It doesn't take too long. I have 7 cavities..

**sandragonfly** · 02-13-2006, 04:17 PM

I LOVE getting fillings, get to watch a movie, fall asleep its so fun..well for me anyways

The needle dosent hurt that much but then again with all my peircings and tattoos I'm used to needles by now.

just let the Dr. know your scared. If he/she is a good Dr. they will pinch your cheek hard (hurts enough) & you'll NEVER feel the needle going in

Dr. Peoples ROCKED! I was 13 with my first & I left happy & drooly

Because of my *ahem* lack of dental insurance, I don't even want to know how many cavities I've got.

I also hate going to the dentist. I don't really care about the novicaine. Nothing a good pinch can't cure.

I need to find a new dentist

I just had a cavity filled a few weeks ago and it took longer for the Novacaine to take effect than it did the fill the cavity. In, out, done in less than 15 minutes. Just relax and it'll be over faster than you know it.

My dentist is great at giving shots, don't feel a thing. After having a few teeth pulled, braces, root canals, a few crowns cemented in, nothing bothers me anymore.
