Yes Chicken, I've complained about the noise and pain since I was little. Of course, as a child they just ignored me. (Yes, I was that screaming child the dental assistant and three other adults were trying to restrain.)
As an adult they would either ignore me, or overly medicate me, on the theory that it was "displaced" pain from the tooth. This also never helped.
When I got old enough to get nitrous, that at least helped me relax enough to sort of ignore the pain and let them work without biting anyone.
The whole experience certainly has helped me believe and understand when my autistic son can hear things none of the rest of us can!
