Let me start by saying I am a long time lurker of this forum and i would like to thank all that post to help ease everyones mind about the dentist.
Now, I had my appointment last Friday at 8 to remove all 4 wisdom teeth. The bottoms are all the way through while 1 one of the tops is not and the other is poking through. So the morning of the surgery I took 1 pill of Xanax wich was .5mg they offered me two 5mg Valium which I declined for the Xanax that I had. I take it an hour befor arrive and they get me right back to the chair. Once in the chair they get the IV started and want to put the mask with Nirous and Oxygen on. I decline and advise to just inject me to get started. The nurse gives me something to help me relax via IV but I did not feel any differ.ent The Dr then comes in and gives me the main sedation drug also via IV which also did not work. He then advised that this will need to performed under General Anesthesia at the hospital. IS this normal ? I thought the drugs were supposed to make you feel like you went to sleep. Any thoughts on this?
