| Filling a tooth.... Fear of needles.. EXTREME
Hey all,
Last time I went to the dentist, ( 2 weeks ago) I had one tooth filled. It was what looked like a superficial decay on a tooth, but turned out to be a deep cavity. He did it without novacaine.. which was great for me becuase I am afraid of needles.... Going back in a few days... he is filling another tooth. It looks superficial (again) but so I don't feel the pain from filling like last time he is using novacaine... Any one have any ideas for help ... I just have belonephobia (fear of needles) and I can't really function the days before I get a needle.. If anyone knows what to do.... whether using medications for painr relief, or something without meds ... I just have no clue what I am about to get into!
