who&#39;d done the others) did it, and she didn&#39;t use enough novacaine. But the others were, honestly, your standard dental procedure. uncomfortable
because you&#39;re sat with your mouth open for a long period while instruments are being shoved in your mouth, but i was in any serious pain during or after.

			<description><![CDATA[ I had two root canals on the same front tooth. One done years and years ago and another done as a result of an infection developing after the crown was
replaced last year. The second one didn&#39;t get the infection and it redeveloped so I had an apicoectomy and that was the worst dental thing I&#39;ve ever
done...and I&#39;ve done a lot.
<br>
<br>
Root canals aren&#39;t that bad - it&#39;s a weird sensation and a grinding feeling, pressure, and a strange taste - but I&#39;ve been told... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;m reading the other responses now about the novocaine shot hurting and in my experience it doesn&#39;t hurt at all. The only time one ever hurt me was
when I had one of my wisdom teeth pulled by my dentist (the rest were done by an oral surgeon and I was out during those) and she had to give me 2 shots in the
roof of my mouth. Other than that though I don&#39;t find them to be painful at all. Does your dentist put a numbing gel on the area before doing the
injection?

dentist that are really good at giving painless shots... some suck. My dentist is really good at it, thank God! ]]></description>

experience. Yes it is a shot and it is SLOOOOOW but I found if I closed my eyes and concentrated on breathing real slow and even it wasn&#39;t bad.

			<description><![CDATA[ I had one a few weeks ago (my dentist had to go through my molar to get a nerve out of my gum) and it wasn&#39;t bad at all. On the first visit she took the
nerve out which took I would say about half an hour then on the second visit she had to do the actual root canal on the tooth. I just brought my music to
listen to and was totally fine. I didn&#39;t feel anything at all and the music made the time go by faster for me which was much needed since it took I think a
little over an hour.

the very, very beginning which is good.

Idk. I keep getting mixed responses, and I know I&#39;m not going to know until I go in and get it done, so I&#39;m nervous! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Worst pain of my life. I had to go in 3 times before they could finish cleaning out the tooth. The first 2 times they couldn&#39;t get me numb enough and we
think I still had some infection lingering. The 3rd time I walked in and told them to start me off with 2 shots and once I was numb he gave me 2 more closer to
the tooth.
<br>
<br>
I still felt a bit of pain but it was managable. The other 2 times I was begging them to pull out the tooth. ]]></description>
