How much do these dental procedures hurt, in your opinion?

1- Wisdom teeth being removed...


2- Root canal...


3- A crown...


4- Fill spaces between your teeth with a similar product used for fillings...








I have a feeling I'm going to need the top 3 done in the near future plus a filling (had those before and I can handle the pain) The 4th one, I'm considering doing for cosmetic reasons and it's the least inexpensive way according to my dentist.

#1 Wisdom teeth removal depends on how erupted or impacted they are. Yes, it's not comfortable. You're removing something from your body that is attached. BUT they will give you pain killers to deaden the pain. Plus you'll either be asleep or sedated for the procedure. Not a worry.





#2 Root canals are a breeze....UNLESS you've got a throbbing toothache beforehand. Then it's harder to numb the area and you most likely have to take an antibiotic beforehand. The "bad" root canals that you hear about are people that wait until there's so much infection surrounding the tooth that they're in complete pain before anything even starts.





#3 A crown will feel no different than a filling being done. You'll have anesthetic (no worries) and there is drilling that you don't feel....and a temporary crown is placed until a permanent one made by a lab is cemented. (unless your dentist has a machine that makes the crowns in the office, then you get your permanent one right away). IF you have cold sensitivity afterwards, then it's most likely that the filling is a bit too high and will only need a simple adjustment.





#4 Filling in spaces with bonding material is a breeze also. Not much drilling....only roughening up the tooth surface with a sandpaper disc, so that the composite forms a better chemical bond with the cement.





Hope that helps.....
Reply:I have had numbers one thru three done. The worst part is getting the shot of Novocaine in the beginning.


Don't be scared it really doesn't hurt.
Reply:Medication makes the procedures basically painless. Wisdom teeth removal is sore for a few days after - gargle with salt water alot to speed healing. Root canals require the tooth to be filled or crowned. Crowns require the tooth to be ground down (via alot of drilling) then capped with a plastic temp until the permanent crown is installed. It's all worth it when it's done!
