The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ? (kbin.social)

For me, this is the injection of anesthesia at my latest consultation at the dentist, it was so painful that i screamed to him. Anesthesia is rarely a time of pleasure, but damn, it has never been so painful.

Same here. Aside from one of the injections (brief stinging/pinching pain in the roof of my mouth), the entire process was painless and I didn’t even need painkillers afterwards.

That said, I can see how there’s a lot of room for different experiences between countries, different orthodontists/dentists, and even between individual patients depending on which tooth and how bad the decay was.

Not OP but the dentist thought the nerve was dead so didn't bother. It's one of my clearest childhood memories from more than 40 yrs ago and was the worst for me until about 10 yrs ago.

Maybe guidelines have changed cause my last one was fully dead and they still gave me local numbing.
