It wasn't painful until the Novacaine wore off... I had my mouth cracked open for about two hours straight. He DID use the words "excellent oral hygeine" and "supremely white teeth" on my chart though which I thought was cool.
I had all 4 wisdom teeth impacted, and they had to be extracted surgically many years ago. It's never painful until the novacaine wears off. But then it hurts like hell.
The lower ones are impacted but the top two are ok although an oral surgeon is going to pull them all. Today I just had a tiny cavity filled, my first one EVER! 🙁 But he used white filling so you can't see it.
