Root canal

- #shorts Why do I need a root canal?
An animated video of why a tooth may need a root canal and what the root canal procedure entails. A cavity can reach the nerve chamber of a tooth. Once it is inside the nerve space the bacteria from the cavity will kill the nerve inside of the tooth, it can then spread to the jawbone and cause an abscess. To treat this situation, your dentist or endodontist will perform a root canal on the tooth. They will drill into the nerve space of the tooth and remove all of the dead nerve tissue with endodontic files. Once the tooth is thoroughly clean inside, the root canal space will be filled with a material called gutta percha. Afterwards, your dentist will cover the tooth with a dental crown to protect it.
If you'd like to learn more about root canals, I highly recommend the book "Pathways of the Pulp". amzn.to/3Zgc2XL

@@VeryNiceSmileDental I think that you forget to mention that there is also filling with paste like materials that act like dentin? Not just gutaperk. Like Endomethasone sealer plus Gutta percha ? I think they are used together? Yes?
@@skygames2742 Yes the gutta percha points are cemented with a cement of some type. I typically use Endo-Rez by Ultradent with a single cone. I haven't done lateral condensation since the 1990's (not that there's anything wrong with that.....)

LOL. Thanks for watching!
Nothing like the truth despite what capitalism have maked of my country (lie machine)
I had to get this done on both of my back teeth actually, it hurts depending on how much good of equipment the dentist has. When I had mine done they had almost none, hurt like hell and had to get at least 25 shots in each side of the mouth. the pain you get from the cavity eating at your nerves is a lot worse tho, 100% glad I just got it over with. Oh and plus my dentist was an asshole and made it ALOT worse.
@@Lazedizzy
That last one is the worst part
@@orctrihar what? The thin files?
the scariest part of this whole thing is the price of the crown.
No such thing as a poor dentist...
Whew no lie
I didn't buy a crown and I'm fine.
I guess I was lucky. My dentist drilled straight down. Cleaned it out and filled my tooth with silver like a filling. There was no crown needed. So I guess that as long as your cavity is not in the side of the tooth. And straight down from the top. You might not need a crown.
Yeah but their job is to stick they hands in your mouth. IN YOUR MOUTH.
American Dentist: That will be 60,000 dollars please.
Just north of NYC, specialists are charging around $2000.
$900 in texas with crown lol.
I'm a dentist here in Manila. That will only cost here around 500US $
Around 29 $ in Kerala, India.
$1500 with insecure in CA 😢
PSA, if youre removing the nerve and the patient begins screaming, double check to make sure the anesthesia is working instead of just continuing like your patient wont have massive trauma afterwards.
I second that. The dentist is now my least favorite place.
@@ANONYMOUS-zy3cd yep, 1st is the dmv
*skill issue moment*
thank you person with puro profile picture
DUDE that was me for my wisdoms. they fucking absolutely shattered my tooth and i was there like UH YEAH FUCKING OW
Remember Dr......MAKE SURE THE DAMN NERVE IS DEAD!!🤬🤬🤬
Trust me on this one! The pain is something I can't describe and I'm a combat veteran!
I'm always amazed to hear how many dentists don't wait long enough for the anesthetic to take effect, and they don't check to make sure the tooth is numb before they start working on the tooth.
Damn that must have been a traumatic experince
Yeah, I had the same experience once... Thankfully, the subsequent root canals I've had were a MUCH BETTER experience. I didn't feel shit!! They were even easier than a cleaning, lolol
went through that too, had to sit through 2 hours of agony.
Just went to the dentist today for a bi-yearly cleaning and I have a tooth that is sensitive to cold water and pressure from my gun being recessed too far. Boy, I tell them every time to be careful and unfortunately they have to clean that tooth as well and it makes me jolt from the instant pain!
To anyone scared. The numbing needles are the worst part. If you want to simulate that pain, give your self a quick pinch for not even a second.
The only time it hurts is if the needle RARELY punctures your nerve. I’ve only had this happen once out of 11 teeth and the pain only lasts for about 5 seconds instead of 1. You’ll be fine so go fix your teeth before you regret it.
The dentist gets paid and trained extensively to do these procedures so don’t give a thought about that
my dentist put a q tip with benzocaine on my gums before he gave me the injection. i didn’t even feel the needle. proof there’s so much that can be done to make you feel comfortable during this procedure, you just need a good, compassionate doctor.
it was my 2nd root canal to a different dentist and boy i was so wrong about my expectations.
the 1st one went smoothly (mostly just in injection at the beginning).
The 2nd root canal was like a glimpse of hell on earth. It touched the nerve more than 3 times (i lost count) and everytime the dentist touches me, i was holding my breath. I tried getting my mind off of the pain by thinking of prime numbers and I could never get past 7 or 11 each time.
No, the worst part is 45 minutes of drilling. And then they didn't get the whole root
I've had teeth removed, and the anaesthetic didn't work.
Luckily my dentist started the extraction, I said "ow" (wasn't too bad) he said: oh, that anaesthetic didn't work? Let's try again. (No pain after the second injection)
@@akeleven
During the initial treatment they thought I had 3 roots in each molar. A couple of weeks had to pass for them to have a slot to finish up the work at my regular dentist (or better said one of his colleagues specialised in root canals) they found out I had 4.
Didn't have any problems with it, other than it being a little sensitive in near the end.
The pain of the rootcanal is nothing compared to the pain of the infection, just had a root canal a few weeks ago
Did getting your root canal done hurt? It's really not supposed to
I also had an abscess and much pain. I had my tooth extracted instead, though. Felt SO MUCH better afterwards! Tooth pain is no joke.
@@stephenbranley91 Yeah, when the tooth is abscessed it is extremely painful.
I have had a root canal surgery it wasn't painful at all. They did inject that region with anesthics that I could feel nothing there
It’s not painful at all when the anaesthesia actually works but if it isn’t numbed correctly, you’ll be in for a tough time.
The pauses, even he knows how painful that sounds
Namaste, or he's still learning how to do voice overs....
Thanks for watching!
I've had 3 they're not that bad
It shouldn't be that painful, or painful at all if the dentist or endo knows what they're doing. My endo gave me novocaine + a booster and I barely felt anything.
I have to go get two of them soon🥲
I had one done. Barely felt it. Depends on the dentist you have, mine gave me enough sedatives to put down a horse. Honestly the night before where I couldn't sleep and had to hold cold water in my mouth or was alot worse
This sounds like a dentist describing the process while practising base guitar
Bass, how low can you go...
I noticed that too lol
what u doin here
Sorry mate, got a concert on Friday
I've never had a dentist explain it so clearly
Dentist: ok, the bill comes to 78 grand, and your first born child.
The alternative is, you know, just removing the tooth.
Extracting the tooth is always an option.
Cheaper too
No, why? That leaves you without a tooth.
Like 5 times cheaper if the tooth becomes a inconvenient i can get a implant insead in the future which would be almost same price@kubauhlir1730
@@kubauhlir1730 You can get a synthetic tooth implanted to replace it.
For a second I legitimately thought the material they fill the tooth with was called "GonnaHurtYa" and I was like "wow, they're really not lying"

@@HumanSausage48 Depend on people. The first step they do is kill your root nerve. Sometime would feel no pain after this process. But there are a lot of people still feel it really bad. That include me. Even with anesthesia, my root canal work was like hell.

"We saved your tooth! Now, that will be $3900."
Always talk about costs before you proceed with treatment. And for root canals, make sure the cost of the final restoration is included too.
I had 2 root canals with gold crowns after whilst in the military, didn't cost me a cent
@@Blodreina_100best recruitment ad ive ever seen
Had to do this last year. Cost me nothing as dental care is free for anyone under 23 in Sweden. I was 22.👋
We killed the tooth filled it with cement and acted like it costs a ton, that will be 4500..... cost $20 bucks in materials....
Brb gonna go floss
@@CoolOkay_ 🥶🥶🥶🥶
Best decision I ever made was getting new synthetic teeth. Born with a condition which caused brittle enamel I was never able to eat anything like almonds, chewing ice cubes, etc...as I'd shatter teeth on them. I spent so much money trying to save my natural teeth. So many painful root canals, failed root canals, abcesses, broken teeth. Finally I had them all removed. Almost 5 years later I still have nightmares where I still have my painful natural teeth.
omg nooooooooooooooooo
@@FinalFronthow much were they?
I've said this to my dentist many times - "Thank God for modern dentistry!"
As someone who's root canal operation has been delayed for having high bilirubin levels, I find the comment box making me rethink my life
The amount of people here saying that their dentist botched the anesthesia or just didn't do it is scary. I've had two in the last year and didn't feel a single bit of pain. Make sure you do have a good dentist
same i didnt feel a thing
@@music_by_carlossame here. Root canals get such a bad rap
@@varunaX the painkillers didnt work for me the first time either, wasn’t pleasant
There are a ton of hack dentists out there. Most are absolute butchers and on top of that are highly unethical mutilators who will deliberately do things to ruin your dental health and cause you to have to return to them for further treatment. Ask me how I know. The ADA will never police these butchers much less even acknowledge what a wide spread problem it is.
Same here lol.
I had a root canal roughly 4 years ago. It honestly wasn't that bad aside from the part where they clean the roots. It just felt weird, but my dentist also didn't botch the local anesthetic part.
I hope i never need one of these. I have agrophobia and being trapped in a situation i cant escape until someone else finishes inflicting pain on me is terrifying. Fortunately all I've ever needed thus far are crowns on teeth that are still alive, and that's tolerable.
Reminder: if you’re a natural redhead, you might need extra anaesthesia. Get your dentist to check for any feeling in the numbed area before actually starting. Don’t be afraid to tell them if you feel ANYTHING, and do not agree to start the procedure until you’re confident that you’re fully numb.
In dental school I was taught to watch out for people of Irish decent since they may need more anesthetic.
As a natural redhead who was had a root canal problem I can relate, my dentist had to inject my tooth twice to actually make my tooth numb, since the first time she was cleaning it, it felt like excruciating hell, believe me when I say, It was a pain I won't want upon even my worst enemy but hey, that was last year, at least now It's better.
Remember everyone: Wash your teeth, if you don't wanna live in excruciating pain for a while~
Huh do red beards count?
Because one side of my jaw takes way way more to numb it and even then sometimes I can still feel somewhat.
@@Cody_Ramer I’m not an expert so I don’t know, but it’s definitely something you should look into. Could be a factor!
Am I an exception tho… i am raven haired but I do have a very weak tolerance of pain… one time we go to the dentist, my mom’s in there with me thank God. The dentist said “it’s time the anaesthesia must have kick in by now” so i just followed and when she try to pull the teeth out. I feel an awful immense of pain, my eyes went completely white and my mom intervene there, telling the dentist to stop. The thing was my mouth felt numb indeed but idk why when the teeth get pulled out it’s like there’s no anaethesia effect at all. I’ve been scared to go to the dentist ever since. I’ve got 1 remaining impacted teeth now. But I still traumatize by that. I don’t have the courage going through it if I’m not fully down with general anaesthesia. But the dentist always told me it’s not necessary. Despite me telling what I’ve gone through previously… idk whether it’s me or that one dentist just didn’t make sure of that the effect already kick in or not
As someone who has lost many teeth and LOADS of money on root canal extractions;
This isn't even the most difficult part.
The actual thing that hurts the most is the extreme pain you're feeling on your decaying tooth area....
I had migraines and lots of blood and other liquids clogging my throat, just because of one damaged tooth and no painkiller would work until I fixed my issue.
Yes a dead tooth can form into necrosis and can leak bacteria into the bloodstream and can affect heart also
Thank you for reassuring me that I don’t need this

Ha! Goteem!
Root canals used to be notorious for being very painful but nowadays they take about 35 to 45 mins and are basically pain free. A little pinch for the numbing medication and thats it.
Not true, you will feel excruciating pain - local numbing doesn't cut it for that type of invasion of the tooth, some people need much stronger sedation though, some people do not respond well to local anaesthesia
Nope, it all depends on the tooth. Generally a normal root canal you shouldn't feel much. But if you have Red Root, which is an infection in the root novacaine doesn't hold as it should, and you end up feeling EVERYTHING. It is horrible and if you have an infection I Highly suggest you be knocked out for your procedure. No amount of novacaine shots completely rids the pain you feel every time they go down into the hole it's so brutal
Afterwards???
@@jimmydandy9364 The most painful part was hearing the drill and smelling it after the dentist first opens your tooth
Its painful I got it 🙂
I always ask the dentist to double down on anesthetics.. peace of mind works so well
Here’s a little fun fact. The Gutta-Percha that is used to fill up the tooth after the root canal was once used to make golf balls ⛳️

This is what my 5 year old brother is going through. It’s Friday right now and we have to wait til Wednesday for the dentist😥 oh the pain he’s in, screaming bloody murder makes me feel so bad😭😭
Sorry to hear about your brother. Thank you for watching.
😢
I can’t even imagine having to wait that long. Man he’s a trooper.
What? Why would a 5 year old need a root canal? Why not just extract it if it’s a baby tooth
@nexul7261 pediatric dentists try not to pull back baby teeth unless they have too. If a posterior baby tooth is removed too early, it can affect the positions of the adult teeth later in life. It's common to do a pulpotomy (partial root canal) on baby teeth to help them stay in place. Front baby teeth can be extracted without affecting the adult teeth.

I got a root canal yesterday because i had an abcess,my nerve was completely dead i didnt feel anything what so ever!!
Teeth stuff always makes me uncomfortable. I just know I'm gonna have a nightmare of my teeth falling out tonight 🙃
I always seem to have that nightmare. Like my teeth are brittle and all break off. I have to take a moment each time I wake up to confirm that it’s not real.

W for my guy isaac with the reassurance🤝
Honestly yeah, as painful as the procedure was the tooth pain itself was so much worse.
Agree with Isaac. The procedure is far less painful than the toothache that it cures. And if the dentist uses enough anesthesia, it's not painful at all.
The toothache pain was unbearable glad I got my tooth fixed
it’s the money that pains me the most LOL
Cheaper to have the tooth removed if its that far gone, ive had a root canal done, 10 years later the crown broke and the whole tooth had to be removed anyways.
Crowns are up to 3k per tooth and are recommended to get replaced every 10 years. Though they can last as long as 15 years if you take care of them. No thank you.
Hi, crowns should only be replaced if they need to be replaced.
I have several patients with 40 year old crowns.
I actually had this. My tooth nerves died and I couldn’t sleep for 2 days, after that I scheduled an appointment and the pain went away so quick

dude go to the dentist I went today for my second procedure of root canal. first day was the digging and feeling, today I went for the shaping in order to put the crow on my 3rd and last visit next week.. broke my tooth and thought it was okay until that hit with unbearable headache. with the right dentist you won't feel no pain, for me cleaning is more painful than my root canal.
Some people just can't go because of insurance and parents not doing their job.
@@dreamtraveler6135 Dam chill, it was the tooth that just fell out💀
I really loved having root canal. It was such a surprise to go to dentist and not only avoid any pain, but also get rid of the pain I came in with. Feeling when he is "clearing" the insides of tooth was actually good
I'm grateful for the scientific advances that allowed us to have procedures like this, the pain I experienced of biting into a steak at graduation dinner was the worst pain imaginable. Glad I can put it behind me thanks to professionals who have to work on such a small, precise scale.
I still remember my root canal operation. 5 hours of pure torture, my eyes were all red from crying, i was starting hallucinating from exhaustion and stopped responding to pain as it was futile
Does that mean the root was still alive. Should've just done a capq
same, and i had 6 of them
😪😥 I'm so sorry you went through that
When was this? I just had a root canal recently and I felt absolutely 0 pain, almost fell asleep actually. You might've went to a bad dentist
should of asked for more anaesthesia, my root canal was slightly painful just because i kept thinking "it'll be over in a minute, there's no way they're not close to being done yet and it'd be a waste to get more shots" but it wasn't THAT bad just uncomfortable
I had a similar cavity before. The cavity was gradually spreading inside. One day, my tooth sudden broke when I was eating. That was terrifying! Remember to brush your teeth, everyone!

I recently completed two root canal procedures, and while there is minimal discomfort, it is manageable.

I’m glad I don’t have to deal w the pain and stress anymore but if your dentist tells you that you need a root canal, do it because the more you wait the worst the infection and the worst the pain will be
This actually brings clarity to what happened when I got a root canal

As someone that had one this year, they are not the worst thing ever. If you need one, triple check all dentists in your area and go to a high rated specialist. You might pay more, but you wont feel a thing when they do it.

Man toothaches are no joke, But my dentist was awesome. My first time having a root canal and I was terrified, but I felt no pain thanks to having a Dentist who knows what they're doing.
My favorite part was the abscesses magically disappearing.
It is magically how the human body can heal.
Make sure you go to dentist twice a year so you can avoid this. also fluoride remineralizes your teeth to fill in small cavities . You will be fine if you brush twice a day.

I remember how much agony I was in when I had a deeply infected tooth. Dentist told me the numbing shot might sting and I was like “I DONT CARE, JAB AWAY!!” Wow life was so amazing when everything was done. God bless dentists.
There's numbing gel that gets smeared on your gum available, so you don't even feel the needle nowadays, thank God!😬
Infected tooth?
Good to know my chipped tooth isn’t infected. I’d be in massive pain for years by now 😅
I had a root canal before, and the infection was the worst pain I’ve ever been in. I felt the same exact way 😭 my dentist turned me away the first time I came in for the pain and when I came back they finally x-rayed and saw it
@@caitlynames2652 dang! I do my best to alleviate patients’ pain the same day, whether I pull it, start the root canal by just removing the nerve and finishing the root canal another day, or draining an abscess, or at least get them on antibiotics/pain meds for a few days if I don’t have time! I recently had a grown man in the chair almost crying with pain, he wouldn’t even let my assistant take an X-ray, so I numbed him first, then X-ray, then pulled a couple teeth. He was so grateful.
As if I wasn’t scared enough of the dentist, now I know what he’s doing in there!

I've had one of these procedures before... The amount of pain that someone goes through before the procedure is unfathomable. After the procedure, you feel sensitive for a year. But it feels so much better!
It varies highly. I've had 3 root canals and only one of them involved any sort of pain. And the teeth have been totally problem free afterwards. They do tend to break easier than healthy teeth though. I've had 2 of them crack while biting something hard... Although one was assisted probably by a fist in the face.
I agree. You're better off going under than experiencing this sober.
YEAR WHAT
@@chewymustard6426 Just to clarify, I was sensitive to hot and cold temperature's for about a year. After the procedure, you will realize the pain is no longer there. However, you will still be sensitive for sometime... This goes too for sweets and anything that can get stuck in between your fixed tooth. Disclaimer: Everyone is different, chemistry for you is different from me. My doctor told me that sensitivity can last from 6 months to a year. It all depends on how fast you recover. I feel absolutely amazing after the procedure and if you require one, note that the pain will go away.
@@nocturnalrecluse1216 I was awake for my entire procedure, it did require two uncomfortable pokes from the anesthetic.
My son's dentist told me he was going to need a root canal or his tooth would turn black and fall out (his permanent tooth) it's been four years, no root canal and his tooth is fine. Always get a second opinion.
Watching this video on repeat to try to cure my root canal trauma from the past...
I had to go to a dentist this year for the first time in 18 years 😂 never had a problem with my teeth, so I go and complain about a tooth ache and blood coming from that one tooth, had the anaesthetic to numb it and the dentist literally “flicked” the tooth out 😂😂 turns out I still have 4 baby teeth 😂 I’m 34 😂
Life basically gave you 4 extra lives lol
The younglings only saw anakin from down there.
Tf?? Didn't know that was possible
@@bruh......2005 my husband still has his very 1st 2 baby teeth. Bottom jaw front and center. And I have a friend who’s got the same thing and in the same place.

Ig I’m the chosen one bc my front two teeth both have one. I have the king and queen😂
King Toot
Wtf 😂
It takes a lot of nerve to wear the crown
So that's what they did to my front tooth after I broke it.
I went in for a root canal and the dentist ended up stealing my kidney.
"Prank 'em, john!"

HOLY SHIET

Root Canals are not that bad. What's bad is the infection. I have torn ligaments, passed kidney stones, and broken bones. Nothing compares to inflammation in the tooth.
You’ve been through a hella lot of pain🥺, I can only say a C-section is nothing compared to a toothache 😩
I know you lying!! Ain’t nothing worse than kidney stones!! I’ve had a couple of root canals and pain was bad but kidney stone bad???
You ain't had no kidney stone
"Root Canal, and by the look of those x-rays it's not gonna be pretty."
*whirring sound*
"AHHHHH!"
You get what you pay for when it comes to everything, but MAKE SURE YOUR DENTIST IS REPUTABLE. With a dentist, every cent is worth it if you are well taken care of and the dentist communicates with you, and listens to you.
For anyone getting a root canal.. I can guarantee you that this is NOT a painful procedure. It may look terrifying, but if you are in the position where you need a root canal you will be happy for the promise of relief it will bring.
I had a root canal of the first tooth behind the upper canine. The nerve was practically dead so the dentist could actually perform a great bit of the root canal in a "first step" process without any anesthetic. He just told me to say whenever I could actually feel something. I felt nothing. Not a damn thing. Only when he was actually through the root could I feel anything.. and that was more like someone itching a spot that had been dying for a scratch. It was a GOOD feeling, but I let him know and because of that we stopped the treatment there. Two weeks later I returned for the full treatment, with the anesthetics and all the finishing touches - except there was no crown. The tooth is still the same tooth fully, with the exception of where he drilled.
Again, if you need a root canal the pain you are currently experiencing is million times more painful than the treatment itself. Even if it's not painful, but more an annoyance. The treatment feels like.. honestly nothing. Maybe the teeth further back might be a bit more resistant to anesthetics, but the dentist has more than enough to make you not even feel being clobbered by Mike Tyson. A root canal is nothing for that anesthetic.
Unfortunately the same lack of pain cannot be said for your wallet. It is an expensive procedure.. especially if you have more roots that need treatment.
Yep, I did two of them with anesthetic and boy it was pretty expensive
Yah this video looks terrifying but it is actually not painful at all
I’ve made two without any pain and I’ve never heard of anyone getting a crown after a root canal.
@@thomassandstrom9817 mine hurted so bad am 18 and almost screamed while canal cleaning.. why?
is my dentist bad? should i change

@@BigLibera woah 😂
Never again. I've had two and the first one broke after a month and the 2nd needed retreated and I opted to have it removed.
I had that thing and it hurts so bad until your nerves are gone.
I remember finally I was able to afford a crown surgery, the whole room stank so bad because of the rotting insides of the teeth.
Oh man 🫣
root canal? i want to get mine pulled cause its not on top its a hole in the side of my molar at and below the gumline. it doesnt hurt tho unless im cleaning the nerve part on the inside
@@completelytransparent6320 I can't afford to even go see the dentist just went through major flood 6 months ago and before that I was only just getting on my feet after other issues in y life my two rear top molars are basically gone.. while they were rotting it was the worst pain I've ever felt and I couldn't clean them myself properly so I just cracked the right one in half on purpose so I could clean the dead tooth out. Now the roots of the teeth are still in my jaw on right side and only half of the root on the left side is in there as I pulled it out in the shower... Looked like I cut myself badly the amount of blood rushing out of my face... The rest of my teeth are perfect I believe. Not sure how they even died tbh I always brush my teeth twice a day and floss after I eat almost religiously.. I'm scared I will get a cyst and have other issues with my jaw because of it but I have no other choice to wait untill I can afford the dentist
@@insomyt5055 it sucks we cant get the help we need while people are out there hoarding MILLIONS and BILLIONS of dollars
@@completelytransparent6320 keep voting Republican and whining about not having insurance.
Just came back from getting my first root canal & seeing the comments of people whose dentists were careless about the pain is so scary. I didn't feel anything. The dentist injected the anaesthesia (didn't hurt at all even though I'm usually very scared of needles) & gave me almost 20 mins for it to kick in & started only when be was sure that I couldn't feel anything on that side.
I really do MY best to get people numb! Some doctors are just impatient or have poor technique, etc. We all get that one patient that really is a challenge, though, for a variety of reasons. People need to review their local anesthesia book from dental school though😑 Always have plan B, C, D, E… to get someone numb.
Thank god I don't live in america where healthcare is just a business. Live in a third world country but still got the best treatment in less than 50 USD including medication.
@@SpeaksYourWord, 50 dollars for a root canal? What country is that, bro?
My numbing needle hurt… it was a huge injection
@@ptrs559India. In 50 dollars you can have RCT by a decent doctor along with a medium price crown which has 3 years of warranty and is of ceramic. And yes doctor uses x ray and the midern scanning machines to get the proper look at your teeth before proceeding.
This effectively makes me less nervous about root canals
Thank goodness for my Dentist. I felt absolutely nothing and he coached me through it. Made me feel at ease.
I got 1 cavity as a kid in my permanent secondary molar and that was the first & LAST time that ever happened again. I got real good at brushing & flossing my teeth and I also stopped eating candy. That pain & experience traumatized me and both candy & sugary drinks were just not worth it!....
Literally what happened to me. I got 2 cavities in my lower jaw 1st molars as a 12 year old and I brush my teeth after every meal and floss too. I have a very meticulous dental hygiene routine I’ve done for so many years. Never again.
I'm addicted to pepsi and now I watch this every time I feel like getting one. Haven't had one for a week now, which is the longest I've gone without it since I was 12. Thanks for this.
I had this operation on my tooth and I promise you this is the worst pain I ever had in my life.I felt it even through 5 shots Of painkillers and I was screaming,after the first stick that dentist had put in my canals he told me that Therese 2 more sticks to go)))
So I witnessed this pain 3 fucking times
@@blare6185 I had a root canal and didn’t feel anything besides the anesthesia shot they put in your gums and I just chilled for a couple hours and it was fine
@@Alex-gs7rw lucky you💀🤪
@@blare6185 I had one done and didn’t feel pain. Although my tooth already had a filling in it, so there wasn’t any drilling I don’t think.
@@blare6185 yeah I've actually had one before, I just don't want to do it again. I felt nothing so I'm ngl I think you just had a shitty doctor
Trust me don’t let it get this bad. Stay on top of your fillings and you won’t need any of this
That's very interesting. Never knew the whole process of a root canal and the cause leading to this procedure. So far knock on wood, I have not needed a root canal yet, even though my teeth used to be riddled with cavities, despite all the care I did.
That happened to me.
You don't feel any pain until they actually drill the tooth due to the cavity.
However, once they do the procedure, it's actually better and doesn't hurt anymore!
Nice description!
Thanks!
The tooth is actually dead but still functional after the root canal
Take this from experience:
*NEVER cheap out on a root canal. And ONLY let a dentist whom you place 110% trust in their skill to do it.* You don't have to worry about feeling pain because the numbing is the easy part. The hard part is getting that hollowed tooth FULLY disinfected. Otherwise, be like me after a few years with my one and only root canal, and suddenly one side of your gums are swollen with a big old abscess deep in the root of the tooth.
The only option then is extraction, then bone grafts, then EXTRA bone grafts to fill in the boneless void the abscess left, and then wait about half a year it seems before we talk about implants.
I'm currently in the recovery process with the bone grafts.........
Be careful with your teeth, we only have one set.
Finally learnt what a root canal is, now I’m even more afraid of it… brb brushing my teeth 🦷 !…
My boy in the background playing bass like he need money for that root canal. 🦷 🎸
I thought I was going to die at my last dental visit, yeah I don't relish dental visits.
That part when they fill the tooth with those "sticks" was the most painfull experience i've ever had.
doesnt worth it, you got 31 more tooth to use then
They didn’t give you enough anesthesia. For me it felt like pure coldness, but even without the pain, it was the worst part. Is was discomforting. I can’t imagine what you went through.
When I was in school one of my teachers had to have a root canal.
He said to us that he hopes none of us ever have to have one, because it's the most painful experience he's ever had.
I've never gone a day without brushing my teeth since.
@@pep3577 it’s not bad at all. He’s just a weirdo. I had to have one after lacking from time to time during my time in the field and on deployments.
@@pep3577 what the hell guys it's supposed to be painless, with a proper dose of anesthesia I didn't feel a thing
