Hi everyone
Im 38 years old and have to get my 4 wisdom teeth removed I wanna do iv sedation but my dentist doesn't offer that so my option is laughing gas but I do have anxiety and I don't know how well I'm going to do can anybody give me some tips our experiences on laughing gas or IV sedation
 
Hi. I recommend not extracting all four in one go. My recommendation is to spread the extractions over 2-3 appointments. You can start with an extraction of an upper tooth, with a laughing gas.
If you do choose to have all four in one go, then an IV sedation sounds reasonable (though I don’t have experience using it)
