I have been putting off going back to the dentist b/c they always seem to have a hard time numbing me up for cavities... which makes for a dreadful experience!! Do any of you know of a great dentist who would not likely have this problem? I really need to get to a good dentist... and fast! Thank you so much in advance.

What can I do next?

Dr. Higgins in Lathrop, MO is fantastic. He has a lot of patients who go up there from Johnson County because he is worth the quick drive. I have a TERRIBLE time getting numb, especially on the bottom, and he did it quickly and without a lot of pain. There is a technique that you have to really be good with to basically block the nerve from the joint of the jaw (as he explained it to me) which is what he did for me, and it was the first time I didn't feel like crying the whole appointment. You should give him a call - 816. ###-###-####

I go to Dr. Crawford in Olathe, he's awesome! I have the same problem you do, unfortunately, you're probably going to need a couple of shots anywhere you go, but Dr. C is sooo gentle, and he takes his time and I never feel like he's rushing,and I've never left with my teeth not feeling like the job was done well, and he has done some serious miracle work on my teeth! I would highly reccomend him. I've been going to him now for almost 15 years, and have never had a complaint. Even after he's done serious work on my teeth and the numbing wears off, I don't feel pain like I thought I would. his # is, ###-###-####.
