I had to suddenly get two teeth worked on this week. One tooth had fractured and now I’m wearing my first temporary crown. While in the chair, my dentist said, “Well, since you’re here and sedated, let’s get this other filling fixed, too.” I have dental phobia, but having to get a major work done during a week of hurricanes, Mom getting ill with diverticulosis and then the Internet wires going down, it did get to be a bit much. I all too eagerly opened my mouth for the Novacaine so at least one part of me would be numb.

I had a bad reaction to the Novacaine (also called Procain or Novacain). I’m mostly fine now, but I thought I’d let you know what it was like, so you know that you will get through it, too. I’m not a doctor, so please don’t use this article in the place of your doctor or dentist’s advice.
