She warned me so they are novicating which is not pleasant either and they are doing it in 2 cleans.

I hope they use a sonic cleaner on the teeth. That can take a lot off and does not hurt.

Expect some bleeding gums too

Shouldn't need deep cleaning then I would think.

Thats what they said needed to be done but I’m ok with it. I never used too unless something was stuck in my teeth so I’m sure that’s why. I guess sometimes you have to learn the hard way.

Dentist measured the pockets in my teeth once. I said NEVER AGAIN! Never had a problem until they did that, then I was getting rotting food stuck down one of them.

I would ask what the presumed benefits of this "deep cleaning" are vs regular cleaning. Sounds like your teeth aren't all that bad. I would try to avoid doing something that needed Novocain unless it was very necessary.

Learning the hard way...my least favorite educational method (but one I seem to experience a lot)

Other than having to go back for the cleaning, sounds like the appointment went pretty well DMC!

I haven't been to the dentist in about 8 years... dreading the cleaning I'll need. Currently looking into buying coverage.

You wouldn’t think they’d wreck your gums on purpose. I’m sorry that happened to youI must have done something right to never have had a cavity??
