I get a kick outa that too, I'll fondle my lip after a dentist visit until the numbness goes away.  I traditionaly look away when I get a shot or something, just makes it go quicker with less discompfort I think, but kinda similar experience with me in the ER that day.  I guess I was used to the pain by that point from the accident because I was just entranced by watching and "feeling" the doc work inside my wrist.  I thought the last bit of stiching it all back up was the worse of it though, but not the needle part itself surprisingly, I grinded some teeth when he was stiching it back up and doing all that pulling/stretching, and feeling the thread run through the skin, made the salamanders and probing seem like... well, just salamanders and probing.


Lucky catch.  Would that of lead to complications or just a lot of gas though?

i think air into the bloodstream like that will kill ya. not sure though.

There is one phrase that all dentists say that irritates the heck outta me. During the teeth cleaning process they will always say "Your gums are bleeding a little."  :mad: Oh really doc? How strange, they don't do that at home when I brush. Maybe its is because you have stabbed me repeatedly with that sharp little pick hook of yours!  :furious
The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

Actually, that's the bleeding from the inflammation in your gums caused by leftover plaque from poor brushing.  Are you flossing each night?  Brushing?  Using mouthwash?  Are you using them as directed?  If you were, there wouldn't be blood all over your gauze patch.  In fact, the blood loss is only around 1-2 mL, less than you lose every time you take a dump (dead red blood cells make stool brown).

i'm a very patient(for the most part) person.

 the dentist office i go to is one of those groups of dentists.....you knoew......a few all work together? well......one that i had for awhile was this old guy. every single time i went there, i had to listen to lectures about how i need gto take better care of my teeth.(for the record, i take very good care of them). the problem is that bad teeth runs in my family. i almost always have some sort of problem when i go there.
 finally one day, i went there, and this guy starts lecturing me. i couldn't take it that day, so i started to get up to leave. he goes "wait! you can't get up now, i'm about to start on you." i told him that if i stayed there for more than another minute or two i was gonna knock his bellybutton out. he backed off, and let me go.
 talked to the receptionist(as quietly as i could) about this guys attitude problem. they rescheduled me, gave me a different dentist to be working on me, and all was as good as it can be in the dentist office.  oh yea......he doesn't work there anymore.

I brush morning and night, use floss in the morning and water pick at night. I don't use mouth wash though. Maybe I just have had dentists who aren't too careful when scraping my teeth. I am not looking forward to my next visit because I have started smoking cigars sence my last visit and know full well how smoking can affect the teeth and gums. Oh well.

Your mind performed what was known as 'thin slicing', it took a tiny sliver of information and expanded it.  Then, when you realized your life hung in the balance, adrenaline kicked in, and took you down long enough to shout.  When the jolt ended, you went back into the clouds.
