Not very fun I might add. My appointment was at 1:30pm and after arriving 10 minutes early was seated in the chair right at 1:30. Ok, so far so good. Well, that was about as good as it got. Ok, the movie Twilight was good too. (They let you choose a movie from their collection of about 50, so you can watch during your procedure). The reason I even went to the dentist you ask...I chipped my tooth on Wed at work :( Anywho, doc said she'll probably have to do an "overlay" (partial crown for those like me who have no idea what an "overlay" is--I know you know Mandy!) That is UNLESS the cavity has grown deeper into to the tooth, then a root canal would be the result. But she wouldn't know that til she was in there. Well, 2 hours later she has made her diagnosis. Cavity = super deep = root canal. I call work, I'm not going in tonight--sorry, have to get a root canal. After a lot of this:
shots of anesthesia
slobber
drilling
taking molds of my teeth
talking to the insurance lady
watching the sexy Edward...
I was out of that uncomfortable chair at 7:00pm.... yes you calculated correctly... 5 1/2 hours!!!
I wasn't asking to know what a root canal was either...
