Do getting cavities filled hurt?

I tried putting clove oil and doing warm salt water rinses for months to avoid the dentist, but the cavity only got deeper. When I finally went for the filling, it was a very simple and painless process under local anesthesia. Don't waste time on home remedies for deep cavities, just get them filled.

Not at all! The dentist will numb your jaw so well that you might even fall asleep during the drilling. The only funny part is your numb lip afterwards, which makes drinking water a bit messy. Go get it done, it's super easy!

I actually cried in the waiting room before my first filling because my anxiety was so high. The dentist was very gentle and explained every step, which helped calm my nerves. It really doesn't hurt because of the anesthesia, so please don't let fear stop you from getting treated.

My grandmother used to say that chewing neem leaves would cure everything, but for a deep cavity, proper dental care is necessary. Modern dental techniques are very advanced and they numb the area completely before starting. You will only feel a little pressure, absolutely no pain during the filling.
