Went to the same dentist for over 30 years and he was always the best. A little over a year ago one of his sons was doing a root canal on me and hit a nerve in my tongue with the novacaine and it was like an electric shock. It numbed half of my tongue for over 6 months, and took me close to a year to fully recover. It was just one of those "dentist deals" I'm sure and I don't really have any bad feelings toward them,,,,, BUT, I can't bring myself to go back there again. I really don't ever want to see a dentist again, but know I better find one soon. I just keep thinking that in my 58 years, I have never had one minute of pain from my teeth because I didn't go to a dentist, but have had months of pain at different times because I did. This is all backwards from my perspective.
