I just learnt a sore tooth of mine is caused by my tooth root never fully closing (due to getting braces and shifting my teeth around). Now at 30 I need a root canal.

I’ve never even had a cavity before. I’m legit terrified. Teeth are the one thing that are much worse than nails on chalkboard for me.

How was your experience been? Any words of advice or words of encouragement? I could use it :(

    Had some. Not bad. The worst part is the numbing. It doesn’t hurt, it just feels strange and tastes bitter. Some advice, don’t take laxatives before the procedure. You’ll be fine.

        Look buddy. Let loose. Don’t let me bully you into not taking a laxative before the dentist. Peer pressure has no power over you.
