I was very nervous all morning and the drive to Winchester seemed like it took FOREVER.
Got in the Dentists office about 2:20. They said sit down and it would be just a few minutes. RIGHT, I thought.
Five minutes later they called me and we were on our way. They asked how I was feeling and I said "pretty good" but they could tell I was pretty nervous.
The assistant took my B.P. which was somewhat elevated for me but nothing serious. Then she did the numbing thing on your gum so the injection won't hurt so bad. The other assistant came to the door and said, "Are you O.K.?" I assured her I was going to be fine once that tooth was out. She told me they could give me gas if I felt like it would help.
I finally did ask for some but didn't need much. Man, that stuff works FAST. So I had her remove it and here came Doc.
The two injections were given with very little trouble, a few minutes he came back and said " You should feel very little, if anything. Maybe a little pressure but that's all" Great, I thought . Sure, just get the damb thing OUT.
Ten minutes later he said, "It's out and held the tooth up". I was so happy I could of danced.
That tooth DID have a crown so my suspicion was correct. I would of had the root canal, then had to get a crown put on and I am very glad I went ahead and had it pulled.
