I'm tellin' ya, sedation dentistry is the way to go.
I took a pill, wife drove me to thedentistoffice. I took another pill (or so), and I was out.
With very few memories of anything else, I woke up the next morning. Root canal and two (temporary) crowns all in place.
Anyway, wuzzent that bad. The residual numbness was irritating, tho...
Eeeek! Don't let them put you to sleep!
I'm pretty numb myself right now.
Numb with shock over that Supreme court decision.
