So, root canals...

...hurt like a sonofa-B AND a mother-effer.

Apparently I'm one of those one in a million types that has an enzyme that breaks down numbing agents rather rapidly, ensuring that I get to feel every skull piercing moment, until they get the good stuff in the long needle and jam it through the hole in my tooth, straight into my brain. Fun times never stop here!

On the plus side, I got to be in charge of the remote for the television while I was in the seat.

You know, I was thinking the same thing after the fourth shot into my mouth, which not only followed the one into my palate, but was also the one that went right into my gaping tooth canal. They never even offered it as an option, though.

I love 'em so much I had to go back for more. In fact, the first one was without anesthetic.

Ditto - that's me too. Although I've been told by my Dr. it has to do with my younger years of heavy methamphetamine's use.

I think I'm in the clear there...unless caffeine dependency counts.

I kept thinking, "Of all the ways to be unique, why THIS one??"

Hey McDuck -

I feel your pain, sir. I metabolize novocaine very quickly and had to have the mondo shots as well. It suuuuuuuuuucks!

No question you need to ask for nitrous oxide, but I didn't know some dentists just flat-out don't offer it. I called 1800-Dentist and asked for a dentist that practices Sedation Dentistry. You could also ask to be referred to an Endodontist, specialists in root canals.

As a matter of fact, I'm having a tooth extracted by an oral surgeon on monday, and you better believe I don't want to remember any of it. BTW, this is a former root canal that broke in half when I grabbed my ripcord in my teeth. SH*T.

Blue skies, pearly whites,

Gato

Well yes, but if you combine that with ketamine, hehe, how cool would be to k-hole at a dentist's chair?

He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.
