Dentist

Well all went well at the Dentist today. I have a little mouth and there was like four hands in it and on my face! It hurt a little but he deaden it some more. They kept mashing and whatever till I thought I was going to pass out. My nerves were shot. I could barley walk out. I really thought I was going to passout. All he did was put the healing caps on my post. I told them they were going to have to give me something next time. He told me to take motrin for my jaw and teeth. I'm still weak and its been 7 hours!!!! I sure hope I don't do this everytime I get a splinter.  Does anyone know what causes that? The shots were not all that bad

Hi Mee, I think it was anxiety for me too. Still sore this morning but not to bad. I was put to sleep along time ago and they messed my jaw up, they must have had to pry my mouth open or something. It has not been the same since. It I open it to wide it pops out of place. The Dentist heard it poping too. Sometimes it makes it hard to eat. Hope your having a good day.

wow I so hear you!  I just went to the dentist and it was gruesome.  it was root canal, they gave me shots but could not get it numb.  I was so tense and anxious, tried hard not to let it bother me but I wanted out of that chair so bad!  it was like two hours and not done.  that was Tuesday, im still sore (my jaw) and in pain.  they gave me motrin 800 too.  I felt really horrible and weak when I left too ... they say it helps if you can eat before.  I think that its mostly anxiety for me.  hope ur okay!
