I recently had a cavity filled and must say that it was about as pleasant experience as it could have been. I've always dreaded the numbing process, but the topical anesthetic plus Dr. AWE's careful, slow injection made it no big deal. The one complaint I have is regarding the cleaning and exam prior to the filling. Only after I had my teeth cleaned did I learn that I would have to return on another day because the Dr. wasn't in that day. That is an inconvenience that I would have liked to have known of in advance with the option of having my appointment at another time when the cleaning and exam could have been performed on the same visit.
