After talking about broken ribs I got to thinking that, although fucking painful, there are far greater physical pains. Burns come to mind but they have nothing on an exposed tooth nerve. I've had several and I think it is the worst pain I've been dealt.
My dentist was integral in me experiencing something I never would wish on anyone. I gave permission to do a root canal and he shot me up with the novocaine. I don't know if he missed the nerve or didn't wait long enough but he attached a drill bit that looked like it belonged on an oil derrick and began an aggressive attack at the center top of the tooth. It didn't take but a few seconds for him to break through, and into,the live nerve while exerting full pressure onto the drill.
That, my friends, was my worst experience with pain.
PS, I never paid the fucker either.
