I'm about to give myself a root canal/filling. I have no dental training. But the pain is more than I can bare.

Ask me anything.

I'm scared guys.

Last year I had to do a root canal. The anesthesia did not took effect in my tooth and the dentist said that she could not apply more anesthesia cause I already had took an amount equivalent to 5 persons. It was agonizing.

Had the exact same experience several years back. Was in there for an hour or two. They kept breaking the tooth and had to peel the gum back and drill some jaw bone from what I recall.

Things only ended up getting worse with the flu going around and I ended up bed ridden.
