Fillings don%26#039;t decay. With as bad as your decay sounds, you might need a root canal. You might not, but prepare yourself for that possibility. On this visit the dentist will do your x-rays, clean your teeth, numb your mouth and drill out the cavity. You won%26#039;t feel anything but pressure. Then they fill the hole that was made and harden the filling material, and you are done! If It%26#039;s bad enough to need a root canal, then you will make an appointment for that on another day most likely.


Dentists aren%26#039;t about causing you pain anymore. Any procedures that are done you are numbed up A LOT so that you won%26#039;t feel pain. Don%26#039;t worry, you will be fine!
Reply:It depends. I had a dentist who used grit to blast the cavity away. No anesthesia, no pain. However, they MAY inject a pain killer into your mouth (which DOES hurt) and then drill away the cavity, which won%26#039;t hurt after the injections. You can usually just get a composite filling, which is white and hard to see. They still use silver, since it%26#039;s cheaper, but they last as long as, if not longer than the tooth.
Reply:I see...It night not be a cavity. Must be a stain.





If it is a cavity, you might have you get the tooth extracted because the cavity is too big.
