My dad has had a root canal done, maybe more than once. He usually comes out of it pretty okay. Woozy and sore, but not too shabby. Hope it goes well for you. |

10.24.16 | I had eight root canals done because of my bike accident when I was 13, trust me, they're nowhere near as bad as everyone says they are. |

10.24.16 | good luck, it should be fine depending on how good your dentist is and how strong the painkillers they give you are.
when i had mine done it was by a goofy indian guy and the place let you listen to a pandora station with headphones, picked saetia of course. so really not a bad experience at all |

10.24.16 | I've had two. They're not fun but they're not the end of the world, and don't underestimate the power of painkillers, either way it's better than having a dead tooth |

10.24.16 | I will eventually have to have I think 3 root canals... I had 2 painfully infected teeth that were in front of my upper wisdom... the pain was so excruciating that I wouldn't wish it upon anyone... Ended up getting 6 teeth extracted at once (4 wisdom and the 2 infected) after being scared of the pain everyone said you go through, didn't feel anything more than some minor soreness... it's worth it |

10.24.16 | Thanks for all the reassurance. Really put me at ease. As I was typing this comment, my mom texted me and said my appointment was moved from 5 to 1 (1 hour from now). Guess I get to miss school on top of it. |

10.24.16 | Hopefully they'll be chill and let me listen to music. Not likely with my big ass headphones. I'd either want to listen to Earth or Discordance Axis. No in between. |
TheTripP
10.24.16 | Listen to something to REALLY put you on edge and overdrive your anxiety! |
DinosaurJones
10.24.16 | It'd be that or they might even knock you out for it. Most places are usually cool with listening to music though. |

10.24.16 | Fingers crossed headphones are okay. |
hal1ax
10.24.16 | Ya maybe they'll put you under for it. That would be nice |
elliootsmeuth
10.24.16 | That would be the ideal. 60 minutes...
The more horrible I hype this up to be, the easier it'll be on me. |

10.24.16 | damn dude good luck, never had a root canal before but I've had all 4 wisdom teeth removed while I was awake and headphones were mandatory so I wouldn't hear the shattering of my own teeth. best believe I listened to some death metal while it happened. |
elliootsmeuth
10.24.16 | Haha, that's what I'm thinking |

10.24.16 | Dentists have improved massively, it's no longer a case of laughing gas and rip it out using pliers. Root canal is not bad at all. |

10.25.16 | I've had a few, no big deal. Nearly fell asleep. haha |
