Thread: does having a filling and a jab hurt?

i am having my first jab and filling at the dentist i am really scared of the dentist as it is now i have to have treatment i have never had treatment done before except a a filling with out a jab. im really scared i have nightmares about it!!! please give me some advice or information

Hello,

The filling will not hurt because you wont fill it at all.. you will be given numbness in your mouth so you wont fill the pain.

After the filling is done the numbness will take a few hours to where off.



Good luck xx

Sorry to say, but it will hurt. But you shouldn't worry! It's only when you get the jab that you'll have pain at the back of your mouth, and the filling shouldn't hurt because the jab is there to stop that.
But don't worry yourself over it! You'll be fine!
