Question

PLEASE HELP! I have to get a cavity filled today for the first time!

How much does it hurt (from your experience) to get a *small* cavity filled compared to a larger one? Also, what is the general process of doing it?

Answer 1

It’s not that at bad at all imo, when I had it done I had 6 cavities filled and eight teeth pulled, they drugged me out hard so I didn’t feel anything, I fell asleep on my couch and woke up and thought it was the next day bc of the drugs lol. Then I tried to drink coke when my mouth was still numb and spilled it everywhere but yeah I wasn’t in pain at all

Answer 2

Its not that bad.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have had like 6 cavities filled, and its pretty straight forward. They start by putting numbing jelly (idk the real name), and then they drill off the rotten part of your tooth, then they fill it up with cement.

You won't really feel pain, but the numbness of your jaw will make you drool.

this is all my personal experience, but all patients and dentists are different. hope this helps!!
