Fun at the dentist's office

I had my root canal yesterday morning. It wasn't bad. It only took about fifteen or twenty minutes after the numbing was complete and they really got to work. It wasn't painful, but I wouldn't want to do it again, either. There was something very disconcerting about how I could tell what they were doing by the movements and sounds without feeling anything. I took three ibuprofen after I got to work, and had a fat lip for a couple of hours, but it went away. I'll be going back many times before all the work is done, unfortunately, but at least this potentially painful problem has been dealt with.
