 You might not get a shot but the last time I got a shot in my mouth i thought they were pinching my cheek alittle bit. it don't really hurt so you should be ok.

 I am probably the biggest chicken when it comes to shots && i have had a very deep cavity filled because of me being scared of gettin the shot..
 
 Now that i honestly think about it i think i should of got that filling a long time ago because i don`t think that hurt nearly as bad as if i were getting a shot in the arm..It stops hurting instantly because of it being numb..
 
 Trust me you`ll do fine!!

 argh, I seriously hate those shots but it mostly feels like a huge pinch on the cheek except itz a more painful than that. Also, you will might feel a lot of pressure and you may be tense. it mostly depends on how your dentist applies it.  My advice to you is try to relax even though itz going to be really hard. The shot was one of those things that you get over with.

 when i got my first cavity i was scared out of my mind. but once i was actually there it was okay. and the shot was just a quick sting for me but nothing that would erritate the mouth.. so its not that bad actually. and its over in a jiffy.
 good luck!

 Did you know dentists don't have to give you a shot to fill cavities?
 
 I always thought they did. But they don't. I happened to be petrified of needles myself. I don't know why exactly. The thought of it has always been much worse than the actual shot!
 
 Anyway, My dentist told me it is mostly done because its what people expect. He filled mine,
 even put caps on with no shot. Didn't hurt either. You might ask your dentist.
 
 The times I did get a shot it really wasn't that bad at all. :)
