Time saving. My wife was in the ER years ago, and I had a dentist appointment. I would have cancelled, but she made me go. I explained the situation to the dentist and asked if he could do it without anesthetic. He was leery, but said he'd try. Three cavities drilled, filled, and done, not a peep from me. Ever since then, no anesthetic.

And yes Truffle, I hate needles. So that was gravy.

I have no wisdom teeth. Go mutation!

My dentist asistant is very kind. I always suspect she had something with my dentist.

6 months after i discover she is his wife.

I must trust on my instints more often? Mmmm

I hate needles too but I close my eyes and think in yummy pizza.

I 100% agree. Heck, having difficulty getting Taft and Johnny Cage replaced placed the town at a hardship to start ZSS.

I have a high tolerance for pain and a very high gross out factor (unless its bug related) but it was either the way you wrote it or my mood this morning, but I just about lost my breakfast reading that. congrats, that's a very rare thing to accomplish.

i had a good tolerance of pain, when i had cavities filled i had no novacane, unless there was no choice.

on a side note with all the time off from work with my aching feet and bed bug issues(both resolved thank goodness) you think i would have all my notes done for spiderman mafai.

But, reallity is nope only half way, not to mention i lost my handwritten notes. Thank goodness i have two proboards one for mafia use and one for my own.

I woke up in the middle of getting my wisdom teeth taken out. I knew what was going on, could feel the pressure in my mouth (no pain though), and even remember a little of seeing the dentist and nurses. I could not have cared less though, because all I could think about was how terribly my nose itched (very common reaction to anesthetics).

The next day I was eating solid food (or at least chicken fries from Burger King).

I had a nightmare experience with my wisdom teeth. I won't share.

I too woke up halfway through.

The next day, I was working a concession stand at Ozzfest while on a heavy dose of Percoset. Twas fun.

I remember. You were miserable.

I was still mildly envious you got any anesthesia (dentists get "scared" to give me anesthesia for various health-related reasons so I've had two root canals - both from incidents, not from failure to take care of my teeth - with no anesthesia. It's not as bad as you'd think but you do find yourself getting rather irritable when the dentist decides "he needs a break" and you've been sitting there for over an hour in that situation.)

Replace "watch this video" and "click this link" with "Play Good Mythical Mafia" (then click the link to watch the video).

Nevermind this post...

I also woke up halfway through. I don't remember exactly what I was thinking, but I remember I was trying to tell the doctor and nurse something in a very urgent fashion. Of course, trying to speak with all that mouth stuff going on caused problems, so the doctor nodded and they turned up the dosage and I passed back out.

For the sake of preventing an argument...
