Dental work : Normally when you are having a root canal or having cavities repaired, you will only need to have a local anesthetic. If you are extremely nervous or apprehensive, nitrous oxide may be administered. Speak to the dentist who will be performing the work prior to your appointment to discuss your concerns.

Comfort zone: A root canal is a common dental procedure. Sedation dentistry is used to provide a safe, comfortable relaxing and anxiety-free experience for certain people receiving any dental treatment. Depending on your degree of fear or anxiety, different levels of sedation may be required. Take care and have a comfortable experience.
