Nope,it doesn't hurt.They give you a needle in your teeth.If your scared just close your eyes and think of something else,after the needle you will feel notthin.When they drill in your teeth all you will feel is a vibration.Then they will wash your teeth will cold water,with a rinse,don't worry it won't hurt.Good luck!

I've had quite a few fillings done and to me, it doesn't hurt at all. The only part that slightly hurts is whenever they give you your shot in your gums to give you your novaccaine (sp) ; but I'm deathly afraid of needles so I probably make it seem worse than it is ; but even though I hate them, it still doesn't even hurt that much ; just a little pinch.
But during the whole procedure, your mouth is very numb and everything, and continues to be for quite some time after your fillings already done with. The only other "hurt" you might experience is sometimes ( depends on you and your teeth ) there may be some sensitivity, which is why doctors ask you not to eat and everything for a bit after it's done. But that goes away shortly.
So basically, you'll be totally fine! Maybe even bring your ipod, my dentists let me listen to mine to distract me while they're filling my tooth.
I hope I helped.

In my opinion, no, it does not hurt. I've had this done before, and believe me, it's nothing to worry about. Just go in there confident, and don't think about anything (that is bad, think about things that are good :) Also, it would probably help you not to look, so that way you cannot see anything. If anything, it will actually tickle a bit. Honestly, it does and that's about it. It takes some time, but it doesn't hurt (mainly) because they do numb you. And if you do feel any pain whatsoever, they will numb you again. So, don't worry, I can promise you that you have nothing to worry about.

In short, it will not hurt. The only times where you might have instantanious pain is when they numb your gums and when they "push in" the filling itself. Other than that it's pretty harmless.

I have had a filling so many times. It does not hurt I promise you. All they do is numb your mouth etc. It will be done in no time. Do NOT be scared or when it happens you will be all jittery. Be calm and you will do fine. That is my advice.

Quick answer: No
Long answer: No, the only pain I have ever had from a filling is the slight prick of the needle they use to numb you up super well and afterwards when the numbing wears off and I realized I accidently chewed the inside of my mouth to shreds because I was so numb. So don't chew the inside of your mouth. You'll be fine.

usally theyll numb it, sometimes those shots hurt other people but they dont normally hurt me. once they give you those shots you shouldnt feel anything except some pressure.
hope this helps, and good luck!

They always numb you if it would hurt!
Like a needle or some numbing cream stuffs.
If you don't like shots.. well go for it anyway.. because you won't feel anything when they are working on your tooth.
And without your gums being numbed and they drill on that tooth in the hole. It's going to hurt and you will feel it throughout your gums.
It doesn't hurt if you get your mouth numbed first.
