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.

joke answer: murica

actual answer: extract lidocane from anal lube and then use it to numb the area, also practice on some pig jaws while using a mirror as you would for the real thing

Bruh. Just get lidocane from the pharmacy, it's not restricted.

[–] molten@lemmy.world 71 points 2 months ago

Why do that when you already have so much anal lube?

Oh, he knows. 😏

in some places it's restricted, and where it's not you need a prescription from a doctor (which defeats the whole point of doing it yourself)

But that's no fun

It is around here in the concentrations you need it to be for self-dental work

[–] Zozano@lemy.lol 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sure, but extracting the lidocaine from anal lube also isn't going to cut it.

That's why I'm glad I got a dental assistant hookup. They get the best stuff.

This bean does back ally dental. You got a Calendly or something so I can get on your schedule?
