Why I Hate Going to The Dentist Part 2

In the last ten years, I have gone to to the dentist several times and had my teeth drilled twice.
The first time, about 10 years or so (maybe even more), the dentist was drilling and his drill slipped and the drill, while still moving, went deep into my tongue, causing my tongue to bleed for 3 days and lost my taste for about 6 months.
I have not had had any tooth pain for over 15 years.
So, last Friday, I went to the dentist to get some cavities filled and of course, that meant more drilling.
On Friday, I felt no pain because the numbness hadn't worn out.
Saturday and Sunday, it was uncomfortable but no big deal.
Monday and Tuesday, the pain was just irritating but tolerable, figuring just the usual pain.
Today, Wednesday, the pain is intolerable, especially in the lower rear of the mouth where you chew the food.
So, go to a dentist and it made things much worse.
I wonder if the Dentist stands by his work and offers guarantees. We'll find out tomorrow.
