Yesterday I had 8 teeth pulled with IV sedation. I hadn’t been to the dentist in 27 years due to fear, previous bad experience. They were excellent. !!!!! My Hubby went in the back with me and i don’t even remember him leaving they let him stay until I was under. I was crying very upset when I went in the back , they put gas on me and it wasn’t long I was talking to the surgeon about my garden , canning, and even hunting . The dentist then put the IV I. Me I can remember saying “ that’s a little prick” it didn’t even feel as bad as someone punching me. They had already rubbed a numbing cream on me . My Hubby told me later he gave me. Couple shots in the IV and I was gone. The next thing I remember was my Hubby rubbing my arm as far as I knew he never left my side . I can’t say anough good about the dentist and his staff. I’m not really in much pain today the worse is the lingering taste of blood in my mouth. This isn’t as worse as a tooth ach would be. The surgeon even called me last night to check on me said if I have any questions or concerns to call. All I know is if I ever need a oral surgeon again I’m sticking with thei guy. !!!!!.....they let me hold my Rosary during the surgery for comfort. !!!!
