I had a molar that needed a crown and no matter how much Novocaine I was given, the dentist couldn't get me numb. PAIN!
So i was sent to a center that specialized in Sedation and opted for a stronger 'Caine' and Nitrous Oxide.
PAIN AGAIN!
As the procedure was ending, I suddenly felt the gas kicking in...when the procedure was all was over. I was told that the adrenaline I crank out was fighting the effect of the gas and when I was relaxed at the end it allowed the sedation to work.
Well , it is inevitable that I have another crown on the other side in the near future and I am scared stiff!
Is there any magic bullet I can take which would allow me to relax so the nitrous oxide can be effective for the hour?
It would be a shame to have to be knocked out for 1 crown.
