Yeah, it's really not too bad. It's mostly boring. I brought headphones to my last root canal because I don't like the sound the tools make (there's some bone conduction going on, so the headphones let me drown that out) and that made the whole experience much nicer for me. I'm particularly sensitive to sounds, so sound has always been the worst part of any dental work for me.
it is pretty boring indeed
Sounds, pressure, and smells do it for me. The smell of ground up tooth is terror for me.
