Painless denistry

    I am going to the dentist in about half and hour and am pretty sure I will need a filling. The last filling I got was a couple of years ago, do they still use a drill ?, I saw a tv report years ago about new treatment that doesn't require a drill. It's been years since I saw this report surely we have it now and still aren't using a drill

    Asked my dentists about this, he said it's for different sort of treatments and not fillings. It's 2006 why cant somebody invent an air or laser drill that doesn't make that horrible noise and doesn't touch your teeth, instead of coming up with more memory for i-pods and pointless frog songs.

    Anyway most of my teeth are fine just need a couple of cleaning sessions and he will remove the filing on my teeth that's giving me a bit of trouble to see if he can fix it. If not I'll need a root canal that will cost €500 to €600. It's not that painful and most of the time there's no pain so hopefully it's just a problem with the filling. He said superficially it looks fine.

    The last time I had trouble with my teeth was on an airplane, apparently the pressure in the cabin can cause trapped air under the filling (something like that anyway). So hopefully it's just a problem with the filling from that time.
