What's the longest you've ever spent in the dentist's chair?
I just did 2 1/2 hours. Constant drilling.

Beat that if you can.

5. it didn't hurt (except that my jaw got sore from being open so long)
it's the smell of burning enamel that gets me.

2. I did about that amount when I had a root canal.
I don't remember exactly how long it was.

6. Four hours, but I was completely sedated.
I did wake up twice, but didn't feel a thing.

7. About 3 hours for a root canal
plus the extra hour for the insertion of the crown a month or so later. :)
