FOUR, actually. I had a bad one, but I've had three good ones, too...no real "horror stories" though*.

Make a deal ahead of time with your dentist to ply you with a mountain of Vicodin and everything will be ok afterwards.


*One tip: Make sure (and have your dentist & his assistant make sure...DOUBLY sure) that your tongue is out of the way when you bite down on that gooey stuff that takes the impression for your crown. Having stitches in your tongue isn't all that fun.

Really the worst part was, during the procedure, adjusting my breathing to through my nose while my mouth was wide open.
