I've been to the scary ole dentist a few times. I think the worse was when I had an abscess and had to get a root canal. I was a child and no kid likes to take medicine. Needless to say,I did not take the antibiotics quite as prescribed! Big mistake!

We got to the dentist and he gave me some Orajel to numb the spot then,gives me the injection. He waits a bit and starts to drill away. I wasn't quite numb and let him know. He gave me another shot. Nope,still not enough! He says third times a charm and gives another shot! Nuh-uh,I was numb,but I still felt it. I think he tried one or two more shots before he finally takes a needle and sticks it right into the part where the abscess would have been! I had tears streaming down my cheeks and wanted to leap out of the chair! After that,we didn't have anymore problems though. Lesson learned,if the Doctor gives you antibiotics take them!
