Boo! I have to get a root canal :(

I'm seriously bummed...I've never had any major dental work done, besides fillings.  Apparently I have a crack in my tooth, which is the source of all the pain. 

Re: Boo! I have to get a root canal :(

  • It's not as bad as it sounds. Just think how much better you'll feel soon. :)

  • I have never had one, but I have heard they have come leaps and bounds in how they do them now, so hopefully you will be ok! I just had a filling this summer, it had been years since my last, and it was not bad at all!

     

  • Sorry! Hope you feel better afterwards!
  • That stinks!  Hopefully they will give you some good drugs.  Wink

    Feel better!

  • I have a crack/chip in my very back molar too and I need to get it filled before it's bad enough that I need a root canal, but I'm so scared to go to the dentist!  I've never had a filling before (just a couple of teeth sealed). 
  • I won't lie, I'm a little on scared side, but it sounds like it won't be as bad as I'm anticipating.  MrsB - that's definitely the case with a filling, they aren't so terrible.
  • Unfortunately, I've had two.  It's not that bad. Just a little longer in the chair and numbness/soreness lasts a little longer (than a filling).  But a good excuse for a milkshake!

    Honestly, the tooth pain you're experiencing prior to the root canal is much, much worse than the actual procedure.

  • That is awesome to hear!  And I definitely perked up at the prospect of a milk shake.
