So sorry for the crappy appointment. I've dealt with a dentist that turned into an ass hat as well. It ended up being a free visit but I had to have dental surgery afterward thanks to him. When a dentist is bad they tend to be REALLY bad.

Okay, that sounds like a nightmare. I'm sorry. Having been through s******actly once, all they did was stick me with multiple injections with the same needle for a minute, wait, and then get to it. How do they test for whether you're numb? And yikes, jerk of a dentist, too!
Hope your visit and dinner go well!

I've had multiple treatments and if I don't feel swollen and can feel anything I'm not numb.

Amy, sorry about the bad experience. The dentist had no right to be offended because it's his fault you didn't get numb. He was not injecting in the right nerve, that's why the rest of your face was numb. It happened to me once, here in US, and I had a vein bulging on my face. The look on the dentist's face was priceless. When I asked my dad and brother they explained the mistake. When my brother works on my teeth, I swear one injection and I'm totally numb; it's an art and some dentists are just like a bull in a China shop.

I swear he acted like I was being difficult by not getting numb, lol. Thank you for that explanation. I've never had this issue before!!
