I felt him working with those long needly things, and I thought, “boy, it feels like he’s *screwing those into the root*!! Nah, that’s impossible, there couldn’t be such a thing as long skinny threaded needly things,that’s like something that Geiger guy would invent…” yeah, and then that reaming action… etc etc.

Next time I’ll ask for something a little stronger in the medication department, although my next appointment is early in the morning on a workday… I guess I’ll just sort of cruise through work after that…

The only thing worse than feeling what’s going on during a root canal is *seeing* what’s going on in a root canal. I worked in dentistry for 8 years, and saw a lot. When I had my first rct, I totally felt half of it – you know, the half where they roto-rooter out the nerve tissue from the roots, with threaded pins that are much longer than your actual tooth + roots? Plus he let you see the fuckers coming at you before poking you with them.
Everyone should be like my new dentist: do not show the patient the long deadly pokey thing. Get them good and fucking numb – 4 shots. Maybe get them high on darvon and valium first. Don’t make them wait. And finish in 30 min. Man my endo guy rocks.

I can’t WAIT to hear about the PTA meeting.
