I'd agree with the above, i was in so much pain a few months ago i couldn't sleep i had to sit up all night and had about an hours sleep in the armchair, if i layed down it was unbearable.

Last time i saw a dentist was about 14 years ago because the pain from just having fillings was unbearable. I went to the emergency NHS service and had the tooth out i was shocked, i didn't even feel the injection! The dentist i went to years ago must have hated me.
For me the acute pain of the drill that goes right through the tooth is THE worse pain i can experience.
