Anesthetic

Cool to Drool?

Most people would answer, "No, I do not enjoy drooling, it is indeed not cool." BUT that is exactly what many patients do for hours after routine dental appointments. Having provided dental care for over 30 years, I wish I had a nickel for every patient who said "I hate being numb after the appointment is over!." I'd likely be retired by now. (Patients do, however, generally acknowledge that being numb during the appointment is preferable.)

Many patients have to get back to work, speak clearly to others and eat and they just dislike the sloppy feeling the local anesthetic provides. (Does anyone else remember the scene of Dudley Moore in the movie "10" after his dental visit?)
