Okay...so I've been lurking around the forum for a while and finally decided to create an account.
I'm having oral surgery this coming Tuesday to have two teeth pulled. I have panic disorder and I'm absolutely terrified! This is probably a procedure that could have been done in a regular dentist's office, but because of my anxiety I've decided (with my dentist's recommendation) to get IV sedation. As a matter of fact, when I was at the dentist this past week my heart rate was 109.
Okay...so here is what I'm most terrified of. I feel like during the procedure I'll probably be fine because of the IV medication, but I'm worried about waking up afterwards to a huge panic attack.
Can anyone tell me their experiences (praying they're good ones! ) with sedation dentistry? I'm scared!
