oh, lord. academics who choose the manual life are the flame to my moth... i'd better stay away from any sgatl events you go to!
i hear root canals are actually THAT BAD, but get the gas and you'll be ok.
I asked for it. Because I already know that I am terrified of the dentist and it makes me sick to my stomache.. I think I asked for it when I went in to have the tooth looked at. I had chipped the tooth and I didn't know I was going to need the root canal.
My dentist also had valium on hand that he could give out. Which he did when the one dose of valium wasn't enough.
they'll give you good pain meds and you'll be right as rain.
