In 2 weeks I am having 7 teeth extracted under sedation, as I have a real phobia of the dentist, can anybody tell me of their experiences please.

I have had dental sedation quite a few times now due to phobia and I have to say it wasn't too bad.
The worst bit is putting the cannula in, as always, but I always look away, when the valium goes in it works pretty quickly.
Make sure you have some decent painkillers at home for when the anasetic (SP?) wears off as it will hurt unfortunately.
Not sure what else to put, but if you've questions I can try to answer from my experience x

Thank you all for your replies, my phobia started when a teenager in the 60,s, they were butchers.lol.
when these teeth are removed I will have a new top denture, which of course is another worry, but heyho, the joys of being a pensioner, will let you know how it all goes.

Had it twice and it's wonderful!! Can't remember a thing. Just make sure you have someone with you and you aren't alone when you get home. Then just sleep!

Had 13 milk teeth out under gas in the 1950's. Mother pushed me home in a push chair. That put me off dentists for life but I do go regularly and let them get on with it. Dentistry wasn't as good in the 50's 60's but better than 100 years earlier.
Our dog had 30 out under sedation. He didn't seem too bad. felt a bit sorry for himself for a couple of days.

My dentist who I have been with for about 4 years is brilliant, she has helped me so much, have had one extraction, and a filling with her, and see her every 3 months for a scale, and polish, but 7 teeth was too much for me, so she is sending me to a private dentist for the sedation, ok it has cost me 295 pounds for this treatment, and then will have to pay 214 for my dentures which was a shock, but because I am not on any benefits have to pay even though I am a pensioner, should,nt have worked all my life lol.

My 11 year old son needed 3 baby teeth extracted and he received sedation via gas. He was very relaxed and so didn't flinch when the needle was put in his gum to administer the anaesthetic.
he was given oxygen for a few minutes afterwards to clear the gas from his system and then walked out of the dentist happy as Larry!

Well I have survived, had it done yesterday, I can remember the dentist injecting the sedation, and nothing else, it was like having a GA, next thing I remember was my daughter coming in the surgery, she said I looked like I had had a bloody good night on the wine !!!!.
The dentist and nurse walked me to my daughters car, and apparently I said to my dentist....wish I was 10 years younger......
Felt fine, and just took 2 painkillers before bed, had a fab sleep, no pain this morning, hope I have,nt spoken too soon, and yes he was dishy lol.
