  • No one should get root canals because they are linking them to cancer if the tooth is that bad get it pulled it will save you the trouble of getting it fixed ever 2months

  • @yalondamackey are you wearing your tinfoil hat ? Root canals do not cause cancer lol what a moron.

  • I had mine done today, your a bunch of fucking pusseys! Its an easy 20 minute job, doesn't hurt and you feel better for it!

  • i got to get a root canal and my tooth is infected

  • Comment removed

  • i just got my root canal today 2 hours in a chair :(

  • Cost of one of these procedures? Looks expensive an painful

  • I had a root canal i was scared to death the day of then i found out it was painless but my tooth and all the serounding areas hurt like hell for days afterward

  • i had 2 done at the same time, no pain at all but i still hate the dentist, having people work on your mouth while your laying there with your mouth wide open and them shoving things in there, thats not pleasant for me.

  • No sound

  • i cleaned 5 root canals...its very painfull

  • im only 15...and im getting one

  • @prettylittlethinggx Age means nothing.

  • @prettylittlethinggx same here. im not going to lie, im pretty nervous.

  • Just had mine an hour ago. Wasn't that bad at all. Pretty much the only pain you get is an hour after its done . Then soreness sets in.

  • I'm getting one January 5th my dentist is a smooth talking black woman who smellsgood... Too good. -__-

  • I had one today. it is when you have a bad infection that it hurts. I felt some discomfort when they were drilling and got another sedation. Then i felt lika a needle stitch and got a third one. I still had some discomfort and aching but I could totally handle it. I am a bit sore now 8-9 hours later but it´s ok.

  • while getting a root canal you feel nothing, its just a little bit uncomfortable

  • how do you breathe? whenever i go to a dentist, i breathe out of my mouth.. i need this done but am afraid i won't be able to breathe =[

  • @lovelyxskinny Too funny. Mouth breather!

    My question is: What about those times when saliva starts collecting/pooling in the mouth? It's obvious you can't just close your mouth to swallow it, or spit it like a real man because of the dam... Is there some kind of vacuum they have constantly running underneath the dam?

  • @PRESTOALOE Lol, yep!

    That's another thing I was wondering. Hopefully they do have those sucker thingies underneath to get rid of some of the saliva..otherwise I guess another fear would be drowning in my own spit, haha.

  • Root Cannals are my favorite when am assisting the dentist... We use a saliva ejector its like a straw its bendable and we bend it so it can grasp to your cheek and then with the big vacuum we get al the pieces of teeth that are coming out when the dentist are drilling in the tooth!!!!

    BUT WHY WNT U STOP IN GRAND PLAZA DENTAL IN SAN MARCOS THATS WHERE I MAKE MY PATIENTS MY FIRST PRIORITY

  • ITS OK 

  • i had one done today, and i didnt even know i needed one...fuck it hurt like a m.o. fucker. it was all fine until they drilled the fuck down to china in my gum...holy shit that hurt...she said to me after she was done..."how do you feel?" i said "i feel like i need some painkillers"..she said "oh its not that bad.." BULLSHIT! >.<

  • i had one it didnt hurt at all

  • how many fillings do you have in total?

  • By the way... The last time I went to my dentist I puked, well the time before my last visit. That's how terrified I was... I was pretty confident going in tomorrow, but after I saw this drill again... My heart is racing. Bahahaha DX life sucks :O

  • No ;( I might have a root canal.. Idk! My upper right molar cracked like 3months ago. Yes, a long time. 2morrow iz the dentist 4 me. I decided to wait bcuz I just wanted my old dentist. But like 1/6th of it cracked. I'm afraid of a root canal, perhaps not. It gets worse... My molars may have cavitys! I stopped drinking soda,brushed my teeth, and shit still happens. WTF... Wish me luck xXx

  • Mine was done very nicely and painless. But my cap is getting lose now a days. I will fix that soon

  • I had one done today ... I DIDNT FEEL ANYTHING ... All of this drama queens i dont understand why they say that it was painful and horrible .... HAVE NO FEAR once teeth or tooth that they will be working on is numb YOU WONT FEEL SHIT .... TAKE MUSIC AND ENJOY AND CLOSE YOUR EYES TO RELAX

  • the only bad thing about this is the begining where they fucking inject the injection to kill all the roots under ur teeth so that u wont feel any pain well it fucking feels so bad

  • i cant hear anything. and im getting a root canal in a week):

  • Omg I'm getting one tomorrow but I'm being put to sleep :(

  • i was like, omg, thats wat they did to my teeth?

  • Other than that it was surprisingly pain free and the orthodontist was really nice. He kept talking me through the procedure, making jokes and saying, "that's it, you're doing great, thank you for your help," etc. A really nice guy. When I saw him with a new tool in his hand I would nudge him and he'd tell me what it was and what he was gonna do with it, usually before I asked, uh nudged. All in all a pretty good experience.

  • Oh man! I remember that thin rubber sheet they put in your mouth. They slathered petroleum jelly all over my mouth and I was drooling behind the little sheet but I couldn't tell anyone. :( I had the constant scent of cookies but I only had a glass of orange juice that morning. It was ALMOST pain free. The little medicine they drop in there stings a bit when the procedure is done. And he touched my tooth with something ice cold (I hear its Nitro-g) to make sure it was numb - it was NOT.

  • Comment removed

  • wtf the dentist is shaking as hell,,, i hope my dentist dont will be shaking that way and do it secure most of the time :P God bless me

  • I might get one thursday T.T

  • Im recommended to get one. Hearing that I won't have feeling in that tooth anymore and them actually touching a nerve inside. NAH. I'll skip it.

  • I had mine done today. I feel like a moron for worrying, it was a piece of piss. Nothing bad about it, seriously.

  • @ComboKickChicken I agree. Except I think my dentist broke mine on the root canal today. I heard CHIP CLUNK CHHHIIJIIK and I jumped. He's all Calm down...

  • No sound

  • Root Canal is painful but can be fixed without going to the dentist

    An all white rice diet and home made calcium (calcium made from eggshells)

    for 3 weeks can get rid of your root canal.

    a diet with nothing but phosphorus and calcium is the answer to your problem.

    Eat nothing but rice & calcium until cured and after it goes away avoid fruits,smoking and candy for a while as the bacteria isnt dead but in a small harmless quantity that can regrow if abused.

  • i had got one of these, one day i was chewing on gum on the tooth and the root canal came out. !

  • *shivers* no matter what people tell me i will always be terrified of dentists

    

  • i am absolutely terrified of dentists and i also have to have 2 root canals D':

  • how long does it take

  • i have to get 5 root canals done,3 on one day and two some othier time......god why dident i just brush my teeth=/

  • @flycodyfly nasty fuck

  • @Brianownzuhard well i rather have to fix my teeth and go thru all that pain then be a cyber "hoodlum" how pathetic must your life be that you feel the need to insult somebody you dont know over the internet to feel like a tough guy/tough.........so in short i rather be a "nasty fuck" then a brianwnzuhard.

  • i got a root canal done yesterday and trust me it was the most painful dentist experience ive ever went through!

  • I'm getting one tomorrow

  • Wow youre strong, i just had my first one finished today and when they were taking out the nerve i didnt expect no pain but screamed when they touched it, not sure why it hurt so much though, i guess because it was infected before,

  • @acofsc1 wel i dont know about that becouse you are a dentist and you are supposed to tell people that it does not hurt ,i mean like you wont be like "look this is going to hurt" if yu said that to me ill be hella gone

  • Dont get a root canal on your front top teeth. I did and it cracked MAJORLY so now i have to get it pulled anyway so i have to pay for BOTH rootcanal and a new tooth

  • @hockeychick1095 XD thats why you see a specialist who only does root canals, i did and i didnt get any cracks at all

  • Comment removed

  • @taylor26488 i had one done yesterday and it didnt hurt at all of course i was numbed but it honestly didnt hurt xD

  • trying doing that for 2 and a half hours and being congested on teh day, it was like i was slowly being choked to death.

  • im getting two done on my front two lower teeth, i have had intense pain and migraines and honestly just wana get it over with so i can move on with my life, its nearly impossible to eat solid foods, found out that a filling was moving onto the nerves in my teeth and that they'd been dead for quite some time?!?!

  • I recently hd 2 rt canals through #3 and #5 gold 3 unit bridge, one acute process with advanced bone disease, TX prognosis is good but I hv had persistant headaches ...onset in the frontal, 10 hrs duration borderline incapacitated with nausea I went to the VA todayLOL. Im told the dental did it ,hard to believe,the trigeminal nerve has nothing to do with the frontal any help??

  • i hate tha needle then tha rest is okay i had one today....

  • Comment removed

  • I work in an endodontics office, the procedures arent supposed to hurt! We dont often see patients who have neglected their teeth enough to let them decay far enough to reach the pulp of the teeth. A majority of our patients often need the procedure done from cracking their tooth hard enough to traumatize it. Im probably just repeating in different words what everyone else has said, but maybe hearing it from someone who works around the procedures daily will shed some light.

  • How about brushing 3 times a day and you won't need root-canals. how about that?

  • @visionimagify cracked teeth (the major cause for needing a root canal) has nothing to do with your hygiene habits.

  • @randompanda89 It comes from lack of calcium, of course. Diet plays a major role. Half of the people I've known really don't eat enough calcium, or phosphate in their diets. Resulting in demineralization of teeth ( I.E. Tooth decay )

  • @visionimagify Idiot,

  • @dantheman945 F you man, It's true. Plague destroys the teeth. If you lack brushing and flossing, you'll need the work done. You're an idiot.

  • @visionimagify Plague? Or plaque?  Plague is more serious . . .

  • @danders76 Wow, I made one mistake, sue me.

  • I think whomever filmed this was really jacked up on coffee~!

  • No Audio Sucks

  • Yeah i just got a root canal and it really didnt hurt. i was laughing though cu he gave me laughing gas. it was embarassibng to laugh,. tehee. but yeah dont be afraid it dont hurt at all..

  • i got one and it only hurt like the next 2 days but that was only when after eating, yawning, and coughing.

  • OK people I just got a root canal an hour ago. I was scared out of my mind and cried on the way there (such a baby) but I can honestly tell you that I didn't feel any pain at all. He even numbed my gum before he numbed it with a needle. It took 45 minutes and it is all done. PLEASE don't be afraid... seriously it's nothing and you'll be so happy when it's done!

  • @jeslovesanimals agreed if you have an abcessed tooth please take care of it before it possibles spreads under the gumline. RCT nowadays is fairly painless.

  • mine didnt hurt at all..and and i go it today..and idk why ppl say it hurts soo much..when it doesnt

  • @caddygal2005 Some times it does really hurt. Not during it but for days after. Mine was done in 2 parts & I needed Percocet for days after each time. But, I'm really glad i had it done instead of an extraction. It's always best to save the tooth if possible. I had an extraction a while back, wish i would have had a root canal instead. I think it depends on what condition the roots/nerves/tooth is in. I had dental implants (major mouth surgery) & it hurt less than the root canal.

  • Is it still suppose to hurt ABIT like a LITTLE BIT after the root canal ? like sorta ache for a while

  • Totally normal, it's not the tooth that hurts; all the nerve tissue is gone - its the bones under the dentin that cradles the tooth that is hurting most likely.

  • I Got My 3rd & 4th Root Canal Done By A Dental Student With A Reference From Another Dentist ugh I Hate Not Having Insurance,And Im Pretty Sure He Left A Root Or Something In There Or Why Else Would It Keep Hurting? Oh And I Didnt Feel Any Pain Til He Literally Push The Damn Thing Into My Tooth :(

  • aww man im crying right now im 10 years old and i need to get 2 root canals im so scared ive been crying everyday because this is my first ever root canal im so nervous

  • Honestly it's not bad if your insurance is good. Trust me when I say it's not bad. The shots are maybe the worst part but thats a over statement because the shots are MILD because of the gel that numbs the shot area so you dont feel it at all or just a lil bit. You'll be fine. I've had 3-4. If you need some advice send me a comment!

  • im in schedule for root canal next week, i think i need some advice for it is my first time..pls tell me things to do..

  • @jesladyonrock18 Know that you might be in pain before it but the needle n shots HELP the pain, There going to numb the back part near the jaw where the tooth is hurting, then around the tooth and maybe some inside, they'll give ya plenty of time to get numb before they drill and if ya still feel it when they start, stop them and get another shot. They'll open it up, clean out the cavity and nerves, file the nerves away then measure the length of the roots. Fill the roots n pack it up. Thats all

  • @jesladyonrock18 terran pretty much covered it he pretty much said the same exact thing my dentist said. I only had 1 root canal but personally i didnt think it was to bad at all. The worst part about the actully procedure is the prepping for the crown.

  • @moelana14 have you ever in your life brushed your teeth? jeez......

  • My (first) root canal treatment was this past friday. It was the upper row - fourth tooth. I was scared, that it might be painful but it wasn't anything compared to the pain I experienced the night before. The dentist gave me a good injection - I didn't feel the drilling -- only towards the end I felt a slight bit of pain -- nothing spectacular though.

    Btw. I am/was terrified of dental treatments.

  • P.S.

    My dentist didn't use a dental dam either.

  • my dentist didnt use a dental dam.

    but it was my front tooth.

    that needed a root canal.

  • i have an appointment the day after tomorrow and i am really scared,please let me know wheher it hurts or not.

  • oh it hurts, and so does the injection. good luck. I have to get two more, as i have already had two done.

  • Your Dentist is a Piece of Shit then because I always go back to my dentist and never once get scared or in pain.

  • it has an oder

  • Why U remove the sound O.o

  • screw that...im gettin mine pulled... :(

  • Don't trust me they're not as bad as you think. I had 2 root canals and they dont hurt at all. I had a root canal exactly where he got it. Having a tooth pulled hurts way more lmao

  • @ColdArmy17 Having your tooth pulled doesn't hurt at all. I was 3 when I got 4 teeth pulled and it didn't hurt at all! It just bled alot. :O

  • @ColdArmy17 lol ive had 2 or 3 teeth removed (if u hav a good dentist u will b ok if u hav a bad one u will feel everything!)

  • @ColdArmy17 when 3 anesthetics fail to numb the place it hurts as much as getting kicked in the balls

    i was rdy to even cry when i had mine done

    its bad when anesthetics fail to do their job...

    but i am sure if the dentist is a professional and knows exactly what he is doing it shouldn't hurt at all

  • @MostWantedWannaBE this is exactly what happened to me. She would try to numb, go back in and i get this jolt of EXTREME pain. This happened like 3 times before they finally got me numbed. I swear i wanted to punch my dentist in the throat after the second one.

  • you've rather have no tooth then an 1 hour root canal? I'm getting a root canal.

  • @rockgod932 I know this was a year ago, but as a future dentist, I advise against that strongly from what I have learned. It would be a lot more sensible to have the painless procedure of a root canal and save the tooth.

  • @rockgod932 Dude get a root canal. Way worth it. Half of my tooth just got done today and i did not feel a thing!

  • @rockgod932 get it pulled and good luck with having a huge space

  • @rockgod932 It doesn't hurt. But then again I didn't need a dental dam. I don't know WHY everyone else does.

  • i'm havin one today and i'm so freakin scared : /

  • did it hurt?

  • Thank you for sharing. I did my root canal a week and a half ago and my brain is still aching with pain with the nerves. It hurt so much vicoden does not help at all.

  • Didn't the dentist gave you anesthesia while doing the root canal?

  • it had more nerves I had to go back for a finish. he did not finish it. thank u for asking.

  • i gotta get one 2moro....help

    ?

  • how long did it take for the dentist to do the root canal mine said it would take 1.5-2 hours does that sound right please let me know i am susposse to have mine done next monday at 8 am

  • that only thing that sucks about it is holding your mouth open the whole time

  • if u skip it now then u might have to get ur tooth extracted later. this procedures is a conservative one where ur natural tooth is saved and prevented from future decay.

  • People, help me out! I have a gum boil at the back of my teeth which usually drained on its own. Last Friday my tooth hurt like hell and I had to get checked by my dentist and he said that I would need to have a root canal and I should start taking some antibiotics for it for a week before the root canal. My appointment iis for the day after tomorrow and I am dreading it...! I do not want to go through this again!! Can I skip it in any way??

  • i wonder if u could listen to ur ipod while having it done

  • i just had a root canal today. no lie it doesnt hurt. the only thing that hurt was my jaw from keeping it open 4 2-3 hrs.

  • I had one because my filling kept on coming out and the hole just ended up being too big, from a tiny one to a big one so they had to do root canal. It really doesn't hurt. The one thing that did hurt though, was when they solder your filling in. They stick some little needles in (That you dont feel one bit) but then they get some red hot thing and solder the metal, god, I was near enough crying. But not to panic, it's ok.

  • I know this dentist and he's actually one of the best ones around...really a cool doc....

  • Had a root canal done yesterday, the 20th. Fairly simple, first three needles only pinch really, like a bee sting or less, then it's all numbbbb. When my dentist drilled out my tooth and got to the nerve I guess the nerve wasn't quite frozen so that was unconformtable but quickly fixed with more freezing. Start of needles to leaving the chair was 1 hour 15 min. Pain in the ass but is it what it is. Might need to go back for re-touching up on the metal filling stuff. kinda rough on my tongue.

  • just got mine today. i didnt feel anything exept for the first 2 needles that make your mouth numb.anyways it doesnt hurt at all. it depends how bad your tooth is though

  • When I had mine, I practically fell asleep. I couldn't feel a thing and I was incredibly relaxed.

  • i'd freak out if they start putting latex over my face since i saw fire in the sky

  • jus got 1 i had a box shape thing on my mouth 2 hold it open

  • I have to get a rootcanal im only 14 :(

  • me 2

  • i had it :) wasnt that bad ask for extra needle stuff even if its numb i did that inly thing that hurt was the y put somthing really hot in your mouth

  • I'm 13 and I had root canal. Dont worry mate, it's ok. Close your eyes and clench everything you can for the injection, then just sit back and relax (well, just the lower part of your body!).

  • yo did it hurt or something by keeping your mouth open that long??

    cuz i just got back from getting a filling..and my mouth feels sore from keeping it open for a while..

  • I got a half of a root canal on my back tooth today. The procedure was very comfortable... I was floating on gas. My canal was so inflamed that they opened it up and put medication in it. It hurts like a son of a bitch two hours later. I'm waiting on my mepragan to get filled.

  • i got my root canal today on my front tooth. and it didnt hurt at all and took for 15-20 mins i guess? they game me shot on my gum so i didnt feel anything during the operation. the pain, it depends on how ppl react to shots. shots dont work out for some ppl. i have had another root canal when i was little, it was so bad and shots didnt work out.

  • does it hurt?

    cuz i got 2 get 1 jan 7

  • do fillings hurt

  • not dat mutch

  • oh man dud..I had to get a root canale today..I'm getting the crow for it on the 2 day after Christmass...they do suck like hell.

  • whats the song in the background?

  • ok,,, thanks man,,, really appreciate it.

  • im getting a root canal on the 24th BRING IT ON PAIN BRING IT!!!

  • i have to get a root canal,,, which sucks,,

    what were those small red things that they were putting in your tooth from around 2min-4min?

    from a 1-10 scale (1 being least, 10 being most) how mutch did it hurt?

  • Dude, during its a 0.8 out of 10 on the pain scale. After its like 3-5 depending on how bad your tooth is. Mine was rotting in my mouth for like 4 years so after the procedure it was like an 11 but, I doubt yours is that bad. Don't let it scare you. That is why I waited so long, I scheduled it like two or three times and chickened out until recently I manned up and said FUCK IT! Its nothing bro, in fact, I got one done a few hours ago. This is my second this month and I still have another.

  • yea it might hurt afterwards I wouldnt know cause im not getting my root canal until this monday but if it hurts like a bitch afterwards well thats when you pop in a few vicodin!

  • Wait, are you telling me that the thing only takes 10 minutes? My dentist said it takes an hour!!!!!

  • The actully root canal only takes like 15 20 mins max depending on the amount of roots the tooth has. The actully root canal is completely painless i mean if u could actully feel it you would be able to sit through it. Getting the crown is way worse then the actully root canal.

  • actuaally i got a root canal today and im laying in my bed right now awake in pain bc of that crap. they gave me as many shots as they could and it still was painful bc my tooth was so inflamed, i got into the room at 92- and lef the office around 1207, they only did two canals.

  • 920* left*

  • oh, and not even fillings usually take less than 20 minutes, so think about the timing of a root canal in comparison...

    its def gonna be way over 10-15

  • The actully filing and removing of the actully roots of the tooth take that long. The whole purcedure takes about an hour. Opening the tooth and numbing your tooth is longest part.

  • omfg...im only 13 and i got a root canal...after the shots wore off..i was crying so much i couldn't even breath...for real...i thought i was gonna have to go to the ER because i wasn't breathing right...wooo, im glad thats over!!
