To be a little serious here, I am a dentist and depending on the size of the cavity, small fillings can be done without local (or long distant https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR ) anesthesia. I use a device called Air abrasion which is like a small sand blaster or a laser to remove small decay so no need for half the numb face unless it is a bigger cavity.



And yes, we are not stupid, most of our staff including hygienists are good looking. We have to have something to make the day pass better. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



Good looking hygienists are the best marketing tool for an office. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

well, luckily this one was a tiny one, took only 20 minutes. Ive only recently begun to get cavities (my second one.) Not fun.
