Not The Worst Thing

My root canal was not the worst thing I've ever been through. My dentist managed to make it an almost pleasant experience. I wore my headphones and "relaxed". He shot me so full of Novocaine that I didn't feel a thing. Afterwards, I just had a minor toothache.

Next day, and my minor toothache comes and goes, but it's nothing I can't live with. It mainly hurts when I bite down.

I did find out I'm in the same group as less than 10% of the population who have 5 canals in their molar instead of just the normal three. What does that mean for me? Nothing. But my dentist and his assistant were very excited. They even took a picture. I should have asked for a copy.
