Root Canal?

[Rocket50]

So my dentist informs me that one of my teeth has an absence under it from an infection caused by trauma (Ex. A Dodgeball to the face) and will cause future complications unless if I get a root canal.

Root canals are said by some to be extremely painful, while others say you cant even feel it. I dont know who to believe so I ask you;

To the people who have had a root canal, is it painful?

All I have to say is: have fun.

[Deacon]

I never had this done because I never got hit with anything nor do I own my teeth with sugar (although I grind my teeth at night pretty fucking bad without my knowledge - I was told by the person I'm sleeping with)

Although my friend did! and mannn he was baked like there was no tomorrow man. Well, he looked retarded because half of his face is pretty much blown up like a fucking balloon, and man he was like... baked - they injected him with morphine I think LOL!! idk though... Cuz his was pretty fucking bad - as in.. I don't know - his shit was like destroyed so they really had to go in there and fix it..

But pretty much he couldn't eat afterwards - he was quite miserable for awhile. He's high as a kite though - he wasn't himself and he felt like everyone was his .. "best friend" constantly telling everyone he loves them and he'll do anything for them. Called another guy by the name of "baby" and asked him to go lie down on the couch with him.

I don't know but good luck for you man.

It depends on your dentist.

If he's a fucking ninja and can manage not to hit a single nerve, you won't feel a thing.

If he's well, not a fucking ninja, ask for gas.

No, It Is Painfree. As Long As Your Dentist Gives You A Strong Enough Injection, Then It Will Be Fine. If You Feel Any Pain At all, Even If You Can Feel Them Drilling Away Dead Slightly Tell Them, They Will Stop And Give You More Injections. Your Jaw Will Hurt In The Morning As It Is A 45-50 Minute Filling And Your Tooth Will Turn To A White Colour Then A Bit Blue - Meaning That The Nerve Is Dead

Never had a root canal, but if you want my advice, close your eyes and go to your happy place...

Root Canal is a bit different though, it's actually to kill the nerve or something like that.
During the operating it should be a little painful, but they do give you plenty pain killers to numb it, it might be a bit painful afterward though, but I'm sure they'll give you medication for that too.
