          Although I'm not sure about the Germans. I had a deep filling over there once and the dentist insisted that anaesthetic was unnecessary... ARGHHH!
          Somehow this all went into the wrong thread, but still. After they had found out what they had to do today, just a filling to tide me over, they got the needles out for the injection but I told them I didn't need one for a filling, never do. Maybe when she hit my nerve root I could have done with it though. The 2 crowns and the bridge are costing me €2000 and the Krankenkasse pay about a grand on top of that.
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            Read this article before you opt for root canal treatment:

            http://www.mercola.com/article/denta...oot_canals.htm

            I had really bad toothache for a month, eighteen months ago and visited the dentist who advised root canal treatment on two teeth. I decided not to have mine done immediately although my dentist was keen, but took some antibiotics that he gave me. The pain went and I have been alright since with no further treatment whatsoever!!!!

            Evidence shows that as you get older and your immunity levels drop, toxins held in teeth via root canal treatment are slowly released and because of this lowered immunity can cause various diseases including cancer and arthritis.

            In one story I read, an old woman apparently had arthritis and doctors advised removal of the teeth that she had had root canal treatment on. Her arthritis then went away.

                  Only suffered this once and it was self-inflicted(ish). Had xray on a checkup and was advised there was a possible cavity that would need sorting. It was n't giving me grief so carried on regardless and as a contractor, didn't get round to taking the time off. Tooth started to get sensitive to hot and cold fluids so I returned on my next 'resting' day and was advised it was now a root canal job. 45 minutes of torture followed, with 3 seperate injections to try to stop the pain as the dentist went in over and over with the tiny files - 'got to get it all out' he explained. I came out shaking and sweating and cursing myself for not getting the initial cavity sorted.
                  If there is any good news, which is a double edge sword is that at least it was free - my brother is the dentist...
                  Got a twinge ? - get it sorted ASAP
