                  Nothing to it. I've had lots of them. Once I had one after the novicaine wore off I didn't feel a thing. To this day I still wonder if that dentist didn't just say he was giving me one and just fiddled around in my mouth to fake me out and pocket my cash.

                        Are they going to put you under for the surgery? I had one 6 years ago and I had pain for 6 weeks after. It kept decreasing, but I would wake up from the pain in the morning. Also, I developed a lipoma in my jaw after my mouth healed. Its small about the size of a peanut.

                        All I can say is,"Good luck". Maybe Darvocet would be better than Hydrocodone for you. Take it easy for a few days after surgery. Stay off the computer for long periods.

                                I had one a couple years ago and it wasn't as bad as it was hyped to be. Plus I got 40 Vicodin.

                                  Read "A Million Little Pieces" where the guy had caps and at least one root canal with no anesthesia

                                                dude, you will be fine. I just had one 4 weeks ago. I didn't even notice it. I hope your dentist is good cause you should be all good.

                                                      I had my wisdom tooth extracted months ago and I was totally traumatized by the pain.

                                                        Had a root canal on an eye tooth years ago after the crown had broken off. Trick was...the root was still infected. The dentist froze around it 4-5 times but the freezing never took. So he decided (without warning me beforehand) to put the freezing needle directly in to the nerve in the middle of the root.

                                                        The jolt of pain was like a white lightning bolt and damn near tore my head off. It did the trick and froze everything within seconds - but that's one pain experience I'll never forget - and I generally have an extremely high pain tolerance.

                                                        Never let a dentist pull a stunt like that

                                                        Having 29 extractions in one afternoon years later didn't come close to equaling that pain, lol.

                                                                  what type of filling are they going to use? get that white shit dont let them put metal in your mouth

                                                                  all the bacteria for the next 30 years might take away 10 years of your life, even more if the dentist is a shnewd (shnewd?!?!) and does a real bad job and uses the wrong crap in your mouth..

                                                                  I got one root canal, and going to get it yanked, its just not the same once its drilled, and somtimes it bothers you

Total cost $4400 for the lower right side. Figure at about $15k I'll be done. Smokes and weed and not flossing are a bitch long term. Well, that and I was once a coffee addict that liked it 3 packets sweet.

                                                                      Ativan, btw, is the absolute bomb for dental. Its like low grade valium. I have only slight impressions of memories of last wednesday. Plus my dentist is high grade, and is very free with the novacaine.

That sucked.

Trick was...the root was still infected. The dentist froze around it 4-5 times but the freezing never took. So he decided (without warning me beforehand) to put the freezing needle directly in to the nerve in the middle of the root.

                                                                                          The jolt of pain was like a white lightning bolt and damn near tore my head off. It did the trick and froze everything within seconds - but that's one pain experience I'll never forget - and I generally have an extremely high pain tolerance.

                                                                                          Never let a dentist pull a stunt like that

                                                                                          Having 29 extractions in one afternoon years later didn't come close to equaling that pain, lol.
                                                                                          That is exacly what a dentist once did to me. The pain is undescribable... unlike anything I've ever experienced.

From my 3 wisdom tooth not being yanked out when I had the one yanked out (the dentist asked I stupidly said no..) my teeth have all been "pushed in" and my wisdom teeth are entirely sideways - I know those have to go..

                                                                                            Unfortunately I have had literally 'pressure cracking' on some of my teeth - one in the back now has a nice visible hole in it.. I definitely don't have the money to go to the dentist right now, afraid they would say I need a root canal.. Not even sure what the hell is the cause for needing one - anyone know.. or half ass know lol
