Today, I went to the dentist to get a filling. Instead of giving me Novocaine, my dentist decided he was going to use a special new paste on me while he drilled. It didn't work. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. The numbing medication didn't work, so I felt everything. I was in so much pain that I accidentally bit down on the dentist's finger, causing him to yell in agony. Now, I have to find a new dentist. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a tooth filled. The nurse just finished taking my info when the doctor came in and started drilling. Through my chorus of screams he realized he'd forgotten to numb me. His only response was, "Guess I forgot to numb ya, huh?" while giggling. FML
Today, I was at the dentist getting a cavity filled. As she's drilling into my tooth, I feel the drill slip, and then she quickly stuffs gauze into my mouth. She nervously laughs and says to me "Wow! You must really be numb!" FML
Today, I went to the dentist. Normally I walk out with no work to be done as he says my teeth are always great. I thought it was weird this time that he was scraping and pushing at my tooth when he usually doesn't. I'd walked in with a full set of teeth, walked out with a dentist-caused chipped tooth and a filling booked in. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to have two cavities filled. I hate going to the dentist. After he'd started drilling, I heard a "clunk" noise followed by an "Oops." My dentist had cut my tooth in half. Now I have to get surgery to have the tooth extracted. FML
Today, the dentist had to give me a lot of novacaine because my mouth wasn't becoming numb. After the 4th time the entire right side of my mouth was numb, except for the 2 teeth getting worked on. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a hole in my tooth filled. After the dentist had injected the anesthetic into my gums, she realized that none of the electrical equipment was working. She sent me home. My entire right side of my face is completely numb and swollen for no reason. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. As the dentist was drilling, he accidentally hit a nerve and I ended up screaming in pain. The whole office heard me and now I'm too embarrassed to go back. FML
Today, I was at the dentist's and she was hands deep in my mouth with a drill, when the power for the whole block shuts off. For 3 hours, the dentist had to keep shooting me up with shots to numb the horrible pain. FML
Today, it was the fourth time I've had major dental work done, because my dentist messed up my root canal. After almost a dozen needles, three missed work days, over $1,000, and 2 broken tools, I only have a tiny, barely-successful filling to show for it. FML

Kick him behind the knee, stuff the tube of paste in his mouth, then ask him for his professional opinion on local anesthesia while you knock his front teeth out.

I was born with my pallet too high so its small and my teeth are bunched into my mouth and crooked and just...horrible, it affect my sinuses so I breathe through my mouth instead of my nose, especially at night when I'm asleep. So I get plaque build up on my front bottom teeth which is caused by that. When I would go to my old dentist, the dumb ass who hardly gave me any Novocaine, and I had to get my teeth cleaned I would hate to go because he would have to scrape my teeth to get the shit off which was extremely painful cause my gums are infected so I bled a lot and idk if he knew what he was doing. I recently switched dentists cause this one is supposed to be better and when I went in last week for a cleaning he looked at my mouth and said he was gonna give me a prescription mouthwash to use because if he cleans them it'll hurt and I'll bleed a lot. I like my new dentist. My old one was an idiot. And my new dentist even gave my mom a list of orthodontists to call to take a look at my mouth and write a letter to the insurance company so they'll cover braces and a pallet expander. Since they wont cover it because they think its cosmetic, my dentist even said that if I don't get them now then it'll be harder to move my teeth in the future (I'm 17) and if I don't get it done then it'll lead to more serious sinus problems. I love awesome dentists =D

boohoo, big deal. I've never ever used novocaine or anything else when they put fillings in my teeth. It's not that bad.
