So I just found out that I definately need a root canal, maybe two.
So I'm just curious if anyone on here has had one and what its like.
From what my dentist told me its not that bad, the pain is usually before the actually proceedure and for some odd reason my body is not feeling the imense pain I should be in...odd huh?

Also I'm curious if anyone has had graphs on their teeth? I just found out that I ave to take out my tounge ring because if I kept it in any long I coul expect to loose my two front bottom teeth before I'm 25.

God my teeth were in such bad shape...

so i'm jsut curious what a root canal feels like and graphs feel like.

I had one about twenty years ago on an incisor. I don't remember feeling much pain, but then again I was tripping balls on novocaine.

never had one but OUCH!!!! sorry to hear that.

I was tripping balls on novocaine.

i like to trip balls...

Ive never had one either. But my teeth are in horrible shape. Last night a piece of one of my molars broke off... so now theres this sharp edge and it cuts my tongue every 2 seconds.

Ive been procrastinating about going to the dentist for a while now. Now I really have to go.

Good luck with the root canal, let us know how it goes.

I've had a root canal. The only pain I felt was in my jaw from having to keep my mouth open so long. It really doesn't hurt, but it's not the quickest procedure in the world.

I had a root canal many years ago. The novacaine is key!
But, unfortunately for me, I still had feeling in the root and unfortunately for my dentist, my hands ended up wrapped around his neck!!!
