I HATE anything dental.  I have an extremely sensitive mouth even a cleaning leaves my whole mouth in pain for days.

 

I have an excellent endodontist mt last root canal was easier than having a filling or especially a tooth pulled.  ZERO pain during or after.

We are on the same dental journey (we mighjt as well be twins!).

 

The implant that got fowled up and two years to complete (I was growing bone) is STILL an issue!  Now they're trying to get me back in (before we go on vacation) for inflamation which has just happened.

The mask worked in that no one knew I was missing a tooth!

I went back to the dentist yesterday.  It took me 1 & 1/2 hours to get there.  I sat in the chair.  In walks the dentist.  I opened my mouth.  

He reaches in a pulls one tiny string and says.."Done..see you in 2 months".

 

From the time I walked into the office, sat in the chair, opened my mouth and left there maybe 10-12 minutes total.

 

There's so much money in my mouth...phew!

I can't think about it for 2 months.

I had a root canal and it wasn't as bad as getting a tooth pulled for me.

 

I guess it depends on the Dentist...
