The Dentist And The Drill
I promised to write after I visited the dentist and I meant it. Today was my appointment and I’m home, alive and well. My fear of the needle was dumb because it didn’t even hurt. It was just a little pinch just like the dentist said. It took 5 shots to numb my nerve enough that the drill didn’t hurt.
Two molars are what got filled, right next to each other on the right side of my mouth. One was a really deep cavity, it was almost to the nerve. The other one was deep, but not as deep.
Now that it’s all done and over with, my jaw aches and if cold water touches those teeth it aches, but the dentist told me it would be like that for a short while because of how close to the nerve it got. As for the jaw ache, that’s from the 5 needles. She said the ache would go away after 1-2 days. It’s because of all the needles it took to numb my mouth.
So that was my dental adventure and if you happen to be scared of needles, I want to tell you their’s no need to worry. Just open your mouth and don’t look. You will hardly feel it if your dentist knows what s/he is doing.
