Can a tooth be completely numbed before a root canal treatment?

Friday, November 26th, 2010
Q.

My dentist says I need some root canal work on a tooth that aches when I eat. She had drilled out the decay, nearly down to the root, but it still hurts, hence the root canal work. I had 1 injection for the filling, but I still nearly had to ask her to stop, as the pain was so bad. (My last dentist used to give me 2 injections for a filling, & it still used to hurt). I really dislike the idea of root canal work, can the tooth really be numbed enough for this work to take place? Any help would be much appreciated.

I have a sensitive tooth. Should I have it removed?

Monday, November 22nd, 2010
Q.

I have tooth that has become very sensitive to hot and cold.
my dentist has suggested I rub sensodyne toothpaste.
How long should I continue this as if this does not work she has suggested I have deep root filing to have the nerve removed.
I had terrible experience some years ago when another dentist tried a similar thing and I experieced excrusiating pain.
Because of this i am more inclined to have the tooth removed.
Do you have any advice and are some aneathestics more effective than others?

What anaesthetic options are available for fillings, specifically root canals?

Wednesday, November 17th, 2010
Q.
I have an extremely sensitive rear molar that needs a filling. The last time two lots of injections didn’t deaden the pain during the drilling. What else can be done to reduce pain? If I need a root canal on this, can I not be knocked out so I don’t feel a think until I wake up?,

I’m only young but by now I should have all of my baby teeth out.I still have alot of my baby teeth but the new adult once are nearly out but my baby ones are pushing them in diffrent directions so in the christmas holiday I have to have them taken while I’m asleep but I was wondering what the dentist will do to put me to sleep. I’m a little scared about that part more than any.,

I have really bad teeth, but I’m really scared of going to the dentist. Can I get work done under general anesthetic?

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I thought that i was the only one with this phobia. My teeth is in really bad shape and i refuse to go to a dentist because all, everyone of my experiences has been horrifying. I would like to fix my entire mouth however, i would like to be under general anesthesia. Is this possible?,

Can out of place tooth be fixed with veneers?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have one tooth that I feel ruins my smile. The tooth to the right of my front 2 teeth is slighlty set back and shorther than my other teeth. If I smile on a photograph it can sometime appear that the tooth is missing altogether as it does not run flat with the others. Can this be fixed with 1 single veneer or would all of my front teeth need reconstruction. I am a very nervous patient who does not have lots of money to spare so I would also be interested to know how long/painful the procedure might be and what sort of price I would be looking at. Many thanks.,
