Accurately, not reassuringly
We numb this. You will feel the injection — a sharp scratch and then a spreading ache for about ten seconds — and after that the quadrant goes heavy and thick. You will feel firm pressure and scraping through the bone, which sounds worse than it is. Afterwards the area aches for a day or two and the teeth feel longer, because the swollen gum has gone down. Hot and cold sensitivity for a couple of weeks is normal and it does fade.
The stop signal
Raise your left hand and we stop — then, not at a convenient moment. If something feels sharp during treatment it almost always means the anaesthetic needs topping up, which takes two minutes and is completely ordinary. Saying so is not a nuisance and it is not being difficult.
Nervous about the dentist?
Turn this on and we will explain everything — what each treatment actually feels like, what the noises are, and how to make us stop. It stays on as you move around the site.
