The first step the dentist takes is checking your blood pressure. This is important because your mouth will be numbed for the procedure so it’s a way to make sure you can handle that. Then they apply a substance that will numb your gums and tissue so you won’t feel a pinch from the needle.

After your gums are numb, then you will receive local anesthesia through a needle which will prepare you for the rest of the procedure. Remember, the dentist has performed a filling of cavities many times in their career so there’s nothing to worry about.
