Question:
Do any dentists still knock you out for procedures?
I have Delta dental. The dentists that I've asked said it is not something they do. I have extreme gag reflexes and dental sensitivity. After having done both, I would rather be hit in the face with a baseball bat then have a dental dam inserted in my mouth... It really is that bad for me. I'm willing to pay, I know that my coverage won't take care of this. I just want to know if there is any use in continuing to try to find a dentist to do this.
Answers:
Ask your dentist for a prescription for "Ativan".
You will have to have someone drive you to and from the dentist, but its worth it.
I have bad gag reflexes also, and it works great.
3 hrs goes by in what feels like 10 minutes.
