I had one done years ago, but the root was infected and several shots of freezing didn't numb it. So the dentist put a final needle down the center of the tooth directly into the root.
It was pretty close to what I'd imagine a shotgun blast to the head would feel like. A lightning bolt of pain jolted me two feet outta the chair - and I usually have a very high pain threshold.
After he scraped me off the ceiling, everything went fine after that. But that pain left an indelible impression.
