Phobia caused by pain relief not working

[debroxton]

I usually have dental work undertaken under sedation. I've tried being referred to receive a general aneasthetic, but was refused. At my last appointment, under sedation, I ended up with injections in the roof of my mouth, which never work and woke up in pain when I was injected at the side of my mouth. My dentist no longer does dentristry work under sedation. I just don't know what to do next ..

Wondering how you are doing and if you were able to find another dentist that will do sedation? It sounds like your dentist may of had a bad experience sedating you. Sometimes having your medical doctor or another doctor write a "Medical Necessity" letter stating the it is necessary for you to have GA will help. Sometimes these letters have helped me with different situations. I hope you are doing well now.
