Dont Worry Its a Really Quick Procedure And If You Feel Uncomfortable Just Tell Your Dentist you Need a Couple Of More Minutes 2 let you relaxWww@Answer-Health@Com

I know it can be scary going for the first time of anything - it's just fear of the unknown, and not at all babyish!

Anyway, fillings are nothing to worry about!. The procedure is pretty simple - the dentist will apply a little gel to numb the gum around the tooth that's to be filled before giving you the anaesthetic - the gum is already numb so you don't feel the needle or anything (at most a little scratch)!. Then they'll wait for you to feel numb (it might feel strange and makes your lips rubbery, but it's no big deal)!.

Then they start cleaning out the tooth/teeth with the handpiece!. It's really nothing to be afraid of - you'll be numb, so you won't feel anything except contact!. It's not like a drill you use for DIY - it's very small and precise!. There are 2 different ones they use - the fast one (this makes a high pitched noise and sprays out water) and the slow one (it makes a deeper noise and is used dry)!.

The nurse will be keeping your mouth dry with a little vaccum type thing called an aspirator!. Once the decay has been cleaned away, they'll fill the teeth with either amalgam (silver) or composite (white) - if it's composite they use a blue light to set it hard!. They might need to adjust them after - and then you're done! The time taken really depends on the cavities, and the dentist, but all in all it should take about an hour tops!.

Try and keep calm throughout - if theres a way you like to relax, use that! You could also let your dentist know if you're nervous, and they'll take things slower for you!. If it's really bad, they can give you a sedative - but it's better if you face it, as you'll see that it's all really simple, and you'll be more confident if you need any other treatment!. If you need a break at any point, just let them know - there's really nothing to worry about!

All the best with your appointment!Www@Answer-Health@Com
