Cavities | Posted at 8:21 PM
I had to go to the dentist earlier today to fill a small cavity. I was unsure as to what to expect. Hearing reports from “it hurts� to “I didn’t feel anything.� Well now I present to you the answer:
I didn’t feel anything. They wiped a gel on my gums to numb the region, then they used the Novocain needle, which I didn’t feel. I could kinda feel it somewhere but not painful at all.
Then, after it was all numb, the entire procedure seriously took about 5 minutes. In and out.
What happens later is a different story. My right side of my face is still numb and I can’t eat my supper because I can’t feel it very well. It’s been 2 hours. I will wait another hour and see how it goes.
I took an Ibuprofen so it would kick in and it’s not sore yet but I’m sure that will change tonight. How fun because I want to fall asleep on the train tonight.
My dad made really good food and I want it, damn it!
