so today i went to the dentist and they said i have a cavity that needs to be filled and 6 shady areas which they will monitor. first of all, i brush morning and night and for the past month have used mouthwash. i don't eat a ton of candy, pop, etc. i don't know what i did wrong to get SIX areas of possible cavities. what can i do to try and help clean out these "areas" before my next appointment to avoid getting more fillings? and does laughing gas make you completely out of it? im considering using it when i get my filling but im one of those people who likes to be alert and knowing what's going on so would you recommend it?

  1. I hate the dentist and I am very scared when I go, use the nitrous, it  helps so much!  Just remember to breathe through your nose to get the affect....You could also ask for a sedative RX...

    Good luck,

  2. nitrous oxide does not "put you under", used properly it makes you relax.  If you are jumpy about getting a filling, then by all means take advantage of the nitrous.
