Amber - 15 shots??? Oh H no .... they'd have to knock me out .... club me with a Shockwave or something.
I hate those shots .... nothing is worse than them. :(

Don't you just want to smack the dentist when he says it will just be a little pinch!!!

I bet I really freaked out the other patients. They were all praying they didn't have the same dentist as me. Lol

OMG!! I would have freaked out and ran! :lol:

So I had my gums scraped today. The scraping wasn't bad, but the 15 injections in the mouth I got first were horrific!

Root canal a while back, they did the injections and apparently hit a nerve. That entire side of my face was paralyzed for over 12 hours! I had to tape my eye shut because I couldn't blink and I could feel pain when it got all dried out, but I still couldn't blink. I'm not very fond of that dental assistant LOL

I had no choice. Some sort of plaque buildup under my gum line was eating the bone away and I'd I didnt my teeth would all fall out! My worst nightmare! literally, I have nightmares where all of my teeth fall out.

And yay fudgey!

I have that nightmare too... it's creepy and wrong!

Yeah. I thought she was doing one or two then I started feeling the jabs. 3 on top inside, 3 top outside, 3 bottom inside, 3 bottom outside, 3 in the tongue. She had to reload the syringe. And it was a very big syringe. I screamed.

Wtf? Why 15? Sounds like great bedside manner explaining what they were going to do BEFORE the procedure...omg...

My mouth was drooping on that side and I was drooling. I looked like I had a stroke. And the nightmare is terrible. They start crumbling in my mouth and I have to spit them out one at a time.

I "liked" that to show I read it .... sounds like you need a new dentist. :glare:
Our civilian dentist is WAY nicer than the Navy guys. She is a sweety.
Much better customer service since they WANT you to come back.

She said "go home and take some ibuprofen." didn't even get laughing gas. :(

I don't know why so many. From talking with other people they say she's a little rough and people complain a lot so maybe she decided she would numb me so good I couldn't tell. She put a towel over my eyes and just went to town.

I keep going back because they are really good at not hurting me during normal teeth cleanings. This is the first time in years that I've needed anything else from them.

She didn't say that this time, maybe she got smacked. Lol! She just kept saying "calm down!" while she stuck an 18 gauge needle in my gums. Lol!

Could be :lol:

I have a really great dentist now, he has never once hurt me, besides the shots anyway. The last dentist I had got mad because the roots on the tooth he was doing a root canal on were at an angle. I had to go back 2 days later for him to finish it and he was not gentle!!

I am always scared that they won't numb me enough. I would be out of that chair and out the door!
