  • Do I have to be numb?

    It really depends on multiple factors like age, depth of decay, and your pain threshold level. Older patients don't feel the pain as much because the nerve in the tooth is far away from the surface of the tooth, and therefore, you should not feel the pain as much. If your cavity extends to the first part of dentin only, then you will only feel sensitivity when your dentist is drilling your decay. But if extends beyond that, then local anesthesia is recommended. Last, if you have a high pain threshold (the point at which pain begins to be felt), then you should not feel the pain as much. Hope that helps! READ MORE
