No it didn't hurt when I had to get a filling.

Depends on the Severity of the Filling, my Mum used to be a Dental Assistant. They will numb your gum using Benzocaine or Lidocaine (Local Anaesthetic) then, they will drill through the hole in your teeth and neaten the hole up, whilst a dental assistant sucks all of the moisture and debris away from the area.

Pain Wise it's not much, just remember that after having a filling to not eat on that side or touch the filling for atleast 4 hours. You can drink but it's better to use a straw.


Good luck.

I have had many fillings most have fell out lmao. But its real quick with barely any pain. The more you worry then the worse you will over-think and worry about it bud. Just relax. Just ask them if it will hurt and I am sure they will say it won't.

BestFriends wrote I heard it feels like a chainsaw ripping through your gums, maybe that's just me

You sure you were getting a filling and not having wisdom teeth pulled

I have never got pain from fillings, and I have had them twice in my life.mthey feel weird, and your mouth feels numb, that's it.

Fillings are barely anything. Just get some novacain if you can absolutely not stand it.
