how much pain can you bear?
how much pain can you bear?
I'm about to give myself a root canal/filling. I have no dental training. But the pain is more than I can bare.
Ask me anything.
I'm scared guys.

If you’re not sure what the difference is between a root canal and a dental filling, I can’t imagine this possibly ending well.
They are not implying they are the same procedure. But after a root canal, you can't just leave it open. It needs to be filled. So while you're trying to be snarky, it actually comes across as you bring the one who doesn't know what they're talking about.
Last year I had to do a root canal. The anesthesia did not took effect in my tooth and the dentist said that she could not apply more anesthesia cause I already had took an amount equivalent to 5 persons. It was agonizing.
Thats sounds traumatic, holy shit.
Yeah... It was painful as shit. But once she reached my root and applied anesthesia directly to the root, my pain was gone. But yes, it was f painful and traumatic
Wow that sounds brutal. I've had two and a few teeth removed, but the anesthesia has always completely numbed the area. I can't imagine being able to feel that.
Do you smoke weed by any chance? There's a cross-tolerance between cannabinoids and local anesthetics.
I got a pretty bad infection on my thumb years ago from biting my nails. Doctor had to remove a chunk of infected tissue/pus or whatever it was using a scalpel. He tried 3 times to do local anesthesia, didn't work, so finally he said he just needed to get it done. It was the most agonizing thing I've ever experienced.
By any chance, are you a redhead?
No. Regular dark hair
I had something similar but they just knocked me out for the rest of the procedure.
Had the exact same experience several years back. Was in there for an hour or two. They kept breaking the tooth and had to peel the gum back and drill some jaw bone from what I recall.
Things only ended up getting worse with the flu going around and I ended up bed ridden.
Woah, filling cavities with the help of a soldering iron. Nggggg no no no
I think that's a rotary tool. Like a Dremel
I bestow upon thee the sentation of a tooth shattering in its socket
Yikes. I thought that looked like a soldering iron, but I really hoped I was wrong. Damn.
Anybody else noticed there's is no green text to read at all?
Murica.
My advice: Move to EU
Or go to Mexico, got to TJ for a root canal for a third the price and get $75 hookers that you pick from the strippers in the club below the hour rate hotel. You can get a root canal, 4 hookers, a hotel for a few days, and a round trip ticket for the prices of one root canal in the US.
Hooray, sex tourism.
Rather die
Cluster headache.
"I'm not going to do anything CRAZY with it, but that drill motor is probably really soothing right now..."
Cluster headache
"Time to try trepanning myself"
My first thought was him
This is hilarious, thank you
Fuji-9 was my first thought too. Love ya!
Man I've been there. If it wasn't for being able to buy fishflex (Cefalexin) and/or fishmox (Amoxicillin) from the pet store, I would have probably done something similar.
Good luck dude, I pulled my own tooth one time and it is not something I would like to do again
What in the murica?
Murica the land of the stupid where you either die or go broke from medical care sometimes both, but at least we got bombs for little kids
Consider going to a dental school. The one I went to was like half price of a regular one.
joke answer: murica
actual answer: extract lidocane from anal lube and then use it to numb the area, also practice on some pig jaws while using a mirror as you would for the real thing
Bruh. Just get lidocane from the pharmacy, it's not restricted.
Why do that when you already have so much anal lube?
Oh, he knows. 😏
Anal. Lube.
in some places it's restricted, and where it's not you need a prescription from a doctor (which defeats the whole point of doing it yourself)
But that's no fun
It is around here in the concentrations you need it to be for self-dental work

This bean does back ally dental. You got a Calendly or something so I can get on your schedule?
