Long story short, I'm getting a root canal on Monday.
I'm really nervous about it, because I've heard a lot of horror stories about patients who are hard to freeze. I've never had trouble with it before, but I've heard that root canal situations sometimes cause issues with freezing?
I'm planning to take 5mg diazepam and 600mg ibuprofen about an hour before the appointment, so I should be as comfortable as I can reasonably make myself... but I'm still afraid re: freezing.
Is there anything I can do before then that will improve my odds of getting profoundly numb?
