I’m about to give myself a root canal/filling. I have no dental training. But the pain is more than I can bare.

Ask me anything.

I’m scared guys.

Do you smoke weed by any chance? There’s a cross-tolerance between cannabinoids and local anesthetics.

No weeds. It’s only inflamation, that also inhibit the effect of anesthesia

Oh shit, thank you for telling me! Need to make sure I mention that whenever I need a filling next. I already get really anxious going to the dentist, extra pain would not be a good time

No probs, I talk from experience. I had two wisdom teeth extracted. With the first one I didn’t notice anything, but by the second one the anesthetic wore off and it was hell on earth.
