    I broke a tooth a few weeks back, its not too bad i think, Do i still need to get a injection to fill it. Also how long do fillings take?

    They may not be able to fill it, it may have to be rebuilt, crowned, or what not.

    Injections aren't so bad. Nowadays, they numb the area before the needle. All you feel is pressure, no pain.

    Should not take too long. It will take longer for you to get numb than to do the filling.

    I assume that depends on the filling? If it's a root canal or very deep filling, it will often take longer than the anaesthetic to take effect.
