I Have always had pain during procedures at the dentist. I avoided going for a long time due to my anxiety from past pain filled procedures. They used an x tip, ligaject, and numerous other shots. That was handwritten on my treatment sheet so excuse any mistakes. I still had pain with every injection much less when he tried the drill. Drill was fine on the top but not down in the middle at all. Even the taps drilled into the jaw in two places hurt. The bent metal pieces being pulled out with a pliers didn’t hurt anymore, but after an hour of this and still unable to touch the tooth with a pick the dentist said there is nothing more he can do unless I wanted to deal with the pain and he would drill into the pulp and add Novocain directly. He said that should work. I didn’t want to go there I was already in so much pain. He said that I needed to find someone that can knock me out. He filled my tooth with a temporary filling and that was it. No referral no nothing. Any advise would be appreciated. I think I have an infection in the tooth as it hurts to chew anything at all and lower jaw is very sore. Thank you
