Does getting an anesthesia shot in your mouth hurt?

Answer 1

Actually, not at all, depending on how you handle it. Mind over matter.

But typically, the injection itself feels like a toothpick poking your skin, and it really doesn't hurt. Just a quick pinch.

The next day or two, you may have a small headache and some stiffness in your arm, but as along as you ease it, it shouldn't be a problem.

Answer 2

Definitly not. Biting your tongue hurts like H3ll.

A shot is far more scary than actually painfull. If you are referring to an injection that is. If you mean getting shot with a gun, I'd go for biting my tongue instead. I have been told by though and strong men that being shot by a gun hurts very, very much. And they wouldn't use those terms lightly.

Answer 3

if getting a shot in your mouth is anything like getting your tongue pierced it probably will only hurt a little at first but im assuming it will swell up and then it hurtss bad for about three days

Answer 4

The thought of it hurts more than the actual shot. They will use a swab to put something on your gum to numb it before the actual shot. It is uncomfortable but not all that bad. For me the most uncomfortable is when they have to work on your front teeth but, even that, doesn't hurt as bad as the thought of it.

Answer 5

To tell you the truth you just feel something cold in your arm. Just remember stay calm it will be over befor you know it. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! O.o

Answer 7

Not if the dentist or hygientist is gentle and uses a topical on the gums before the injection.

Answer 8

Some do, Some don't.

Answer 9

Yes. It does.
