[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This happened to me before years ago. When I needed dental work more recently, I pre-medicated myself with ibuprofen but the numbing shots worked. One of my parents has red hair and I wonder if that’s why. I have brown hair. Or maybe the dentist was missing the right spot that day. Who knows. [/quote] Being a ginger definitely makes it less effective! It’s practically impossible for them to get me numb. And I have horrid teeth, so it’s really not fun. I don’t know that’s it’s worse now as an adult though - it’s just always been bad. I always pre-medicate myself with a combo of ibuprofen and Tylenol, which does seem to help a bit. The radiologist who did my breast biopsy was a ginger and thankfully understood how to get things super numbed up. [/quote]
