Anyone have a root canal done?

Had a few, no problems.

Several.


You shouldnt feel a god damn thing if they use the right drugs.
Make sure to ask for a painkiller prescription on your way out the door.

I've had two. It was the equivalent to a really expensive filling. Absolutely zero pain other than the needle of a anesthetic.

I got one yesterday. My previous 3 had been performed by an endodontists, yesterday my dentist did mine and it was the first one that I didn't feel a thing. I always tend to remember a slight sting when they got the root but not this time. Probably just a coincidence.

Had 2. First was no biggie. Second wasn't either until the x-ray showed that my root was cracked, which meant the tooth was FUBAR. Needed an extraction and an implant Translation - BLOODY EFFING EXPENSIVE, even with insurance.

Oh yeah, get it done by an endodontist, not a dentist.
