I Dont Like Going To The Dentist

I'm just back from the dentist...

My mouth and nose is all numb from the anesthetic at the moment...
I broke a front upper tooth...and thinking she could just fill it....made an appointment...

Turns out...the tooth already had a big filling...and there wasn't a lot of the tooth left...
So ...
Root canal treatment fist...
Then a crown later in the month...


The root canal work has now been done...and she took an impression of my tooth for the technician to make a new crown ...
I have to go back in 2 weeks to have the post fitted...and the new tooth fitted...

None of it is very nice... The drilling and pushing and pulling..
The suction in my mouth feels absolutely horrid...
I have a low gag reflex at the best of times...and with a mouthful of tools and dentist instruments...and this huge suction pipe spraying water...and sucking at my gums...there was more than once I felt my stomach churn....

My husband just had four fillings put in this morning. He's now complaining of a numb nose.
