They use a substance called Novacaine in the US.

Its not that we don't take care of our teeth, its the fact that most dentists have now gone private only and and if you can find a dentist taking on NHS patients then it'll be impossible to register.

I've never quite understood that, maybe it's a regional thing. I hadn't been to the dentist in years I knew I had a wisdom tooth that was going to hell, more cavity than tooth but when a chunk of it just came off while I was on honeymoon I decided as soon as I got home to get it sorted out. And not a moment too soon as I had a cavity elsewhere which needed root canal treatment, that bitch hurt like hell til it was sorted! Anyway I went to the only dentist I knew (in the local shopping center) not know whether I could go NHS or Private, just wanted to get the thing sorted and they registered me NHS straight away. I've had an extraction, root canal and 3 large fillings since. The only thing I had to pay much for was the root canal as they wouldn't do that NHS. I'd been hearing for years how you can't get an NHS dentist anywhere and I got registered at the first dentist I went into. Weird.

I wouldnt really worry too much about accidentally swallowing some anaesthetics you had at the dentist. Well, unless your feeling particular strange/ill in which case see a doctor.

Are you going to tell us the secret behind all these questions!? lol

I'm not sure about the Fish Anaesthic, but if I remember correctly, the other one (Xylocaine) is used in those "sore throat" sprays. I once used a whole bottle of this over a period of just 3 or 4 days, spraying directly into the open hole that was all that remained of a broken tooth when I couldn't get to a dentist. I imagine I swallowed quite a lot of it at that time and it made me feel quite ill (sickly, vomit-y feeling) and I lost my sense of taste for about a week too.

It kept the tooth pain at bay though, until I got back home and went to my Dentist [yes]
