Hi..
I was sedated three times for teeth out. First time ONE molar, second time one wisdom tooth and third time, one wissy and one molar.

In my personal experience, i have nothing but extreme love for sedation. I LOVE IT! There is nothing bad about it at all. I am terribly phobic of everything. Drugs, feeling drunk, DENTISTS.... The thing about sedation is that you feel drunk, minus the sickness. You feel extremely happy, no cares, no worries, nothing. As they adminster the drugs (into the back of your hand), you feel as if you are going under, but you are too relaxed to give a crap.

The only thing i noticed was a headache after, not that bad, just bad enough to take a pain killer.

Seriously though....it is perfectly fine :)

Hi Kazzie,

I had 15 teeth out in oen go when I was 10, was just lerft with my front and a couple at the back. I brought 4 of them home to keep Lol

I was sedated when I had my knee done and my teeth out. They just inject your hand and you dont feel anyhting and soon you know it, your awake again. The water they put into it to test was really cold Lol They will give you a seditive if your that bad. I had vailum as I refused which was quick to work and made no fuss over the otehr stuff going in.

It does leave you with a brused hand! I have a bad one still from nearly 5 weeks ago. Lol

Hope it goes ok for you.
Thinking of you.

Hi Kazzi

I was sedated when I had my wisdom teeth out and I can honestly say I didn't feel a thing I just remember asking the dentist if it was all over and felt a bit like I was drunk and tired after it.

Hi Kazzie,
you did so well on your last visit, you took that first big step and made everyone proud of you.
I would consider recieving this letter as your second big step (i'm guessing you didnt hypernentilate at the mere sight of the letter, No? Well done!)
The sooner you take that third step and phone the hospital the better.
Get it out of the way.
I think i mentioned last time that my bezzie mates work in a dental surgery and are trained in sedation. They assure me that it is very safe and you will be awake (which is good) but highly sedated throughout the procedure, therefore you wont have a clue what is happening. Infact you will probably have quite a laugh about it. My friend who also uses this site as a terrible fear of dentist (anything medical) but she swears by sedation and she now as regular visits to the dentist. She even has sedation for a scale and polish!
I know that my words will probably be of little comfort but i hope it gives you some encouragement. Well done and good luck!

[kazzie]

Thank you all so much:hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

And all your words are of great comfort believe me:hugs:

Im feeling a bit better now.....will let you know on Monday when the appt is for:weep:

Dunno what Id do without you all:D

I must be wierd because I love being put under anesthesia. It is a trip to wake up one second later and know that hours have passed. I have had at least 7 major surgeries. the anesthesia is one thing I looked forward to each time. Good luck

[Karen]

Hugs for you Kaz :hugs: I hope you don't have to wait too long to hear.

Nice to have a special dept for nervous folk though Kaz and I think I would rather wait to go there because they will be understanding etc.

Hang on in there our kid. :hugs:

Love Piglet :flowers:
