Does it hurt less to get a cavity filled than to get a tooth pulled?!


Question: Does it hurt less to get a cavity filled than to get a tooth pulled?
I have a cavity andI have never had one before in my life, but I have had most of my teeth pulled. Does it hurt less than getting a tooth pulled?

Answers:

you don't feel pain at all while getting a cavity filled , there may be some kind of sensitivity to your teeth being filled
you have these sensitivity cause while doing the cavity we do not give anesthesia but while performing extraction we give anesthesia so you don't have pain at all
its better to get your teeth filled than extracted



When i was younger i had all my teeth pulled out except for a few , and i was under a sleeping mask and i could not chew or do anything and it was a bummer. But you would probably not know because they but you under anesthetic when you have cavities so i am guessing yes because when you get a tooth pulled it may leave some sensitivity but Good Luck anyway! :)



Yes, and there is more long-term pain associated with it too. It will stay sensitive to heat and cold for about 2 or 3 years.

If you pull it, you lose a tooth, but there is no pain other than a little aching for about a week.



Hell yeah
