What is a Dental Filling?

[briensmith]

The first part of the dental filling is often the most uncomfortable and most dreaded by patients. Dentists normally have to drill into a tooth to get to and excise decaying portions of the tooth. Generally, dentists use novocaine to numb the sensation of having the drill applied to the tooth, but both the sound and smell of the dental drill is enough to cause anxiety in many patients. Some patients have adverse reactions to novocaine, and go without it during drilling. The procedure is described as somewhat to very painful depending upon individual perception.
