Does getting a cavity filled hurt? PLEASE HELP/ ANSWER!?

You shouldn't be nervous. Trust me its not that bad. I have had almost all of my teeth filled. tHE SHOT IS SERIOUSLY LIKE A TINY PINCH. Try pinching yourself. That's how it truely feels. Yes they rub a gel that numbs the area where the shot will be given. Its called topical, that way you dont feel the pinch as much. I would rate it a 2, but then again everybody is different. Well it really depends on the shot the doctor puts on you. For some odd reasons, the tetanous shot hurts but the hepatitus shot doesnt. Honestly, its not that bad.
