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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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

my mom is a dentist and never numbs me when she works. it only hurts if you destroy your mouth FYI.

that's happened to me before except the dentist gave me 3 shots and it never numbed me. I know how you feel op :/

i agree with 52. novocine is not needed when the cavities are still incipient. Btw, i guess the special paste your dentist gave you was a topical anesthesia. Which is only given to numb the gums prior to injecting the novocaine. It really doesnt help when drilling. either your dentist is a dumbass or s cheapass. Find a new dentist.

oh because I go to dentist and he do the fillings on me and the fillings they do not feel good so what he do is he pinch my mouth or he give me a shot and ay ay ay Dios Mio pero eso duele mucho! then he go and do the drilling but a year later the drilling come out and I say hey this no good.
kristylew03 1
So many shitty dentists out there. The last filling I got he didn't use enough to completely numb me so I had to stop him halfway through to give me another shot, and he cut the side of my mouth somehow. I feel your pain to some degree.

"We'll give you some Novocaine, that tooth I'll be fine in a minute or two. But he stuck that needle down deep in my gum, and he started drilling, before I was numb...Some beach...somewhere.." 0-0

I normally say something obnoxious about op on this site, but this fml leaves me at a loss for words. all I can say is that ******* sucks, and I seriously feel your pain
Veraymix 6
115, I really don't believe that's the answer all the time, but if it ever turned out bad and he injured OP or caused some sort of problem (which obviously he didn't) then as a professional he should be held responsible.

It doesn't even hurt, I've had fillings without anaesthetic before

Nope. Dentists are people who couldn't make it as doctors

Never mind, I answered my own question. they still get the title. :P "A dentist is not a doctor of medicine (MD), or a doctor of osteopathy (DO), but instead follows a different path toward becoming medically proficient in caring for teeth and gums. In most cases, such training, which results in either a doctor of dental surgery (DDS) title, or doctor of dental medicine (DMD) degree. The abbreviation DMD comes from the Latin name, Dentariae Medicinae Doctor."

My physician got free money off of my visit twice on my foot problem. She subscribed two medicine subscriptions and it didn't heal in a month when she said it is supposed to in one week.

Doctors aren't stupid, not all of them at least. It's healthier for the body to use a numbing gel, if a cavity is small you can get away with just using the or zero numbing completely.

depends on how the dentist works and how close to nerves they go. also individual pain tolerance.

I've never had any cavities or fillings before. I would assume... actually I'll just save everyone trouble and not assume. FYL op.

Why did you let him use it? You could have said you didn't want to be his test subject.
1215116a 14
They were probably trying to be polite and not say no, and they probably thought it would work anyways.
flockz 20
