Can you get put under for a general tooth removal procedure [in Canada]?!
Question: Can you get put under for a general tooth removal procedure [in Canada]?
My friend needs to get a molar pulled because of a really bad cavity that has destroyed his tooth.
He is HORRIBLE with needles and anything metal going in his mouth (or anywhere on his body). When he needed a filling done (at age 10) he needed the assistant, the dentist and his Mother to help hold him down cause he was so freaked out. Not to mention when he was 13 and in the hospital with pneumonia he punched a nurse in the face who tried to take blood. He's REALLY BAD with stuff like this, ahah. Even though he tries to be strong about it. But this IS serious, so please no negative comments about his reactions...
So, can he get put under for a tooth removal in Canada??.... THANKS in adv!!!
