My first root canal in an hour!please help!?

Question

I have been suffering from pain for the last 4 days and am getting my first root canal done at 12. I am so scared!!!

I am terrified of needles and dentists! Is there pain afterwards??

How long does it usually take?

Answer 1

I bet it will take an hour, and they numb you up, if your that scared, ask them to use laughing gas on you! All laughing gas is, is this little mask, and you breath through your nose and out your mouth, and it relaxes you. I am afraid of dentists too. I usually use laughing gas when they just clean my teeth! haha, but really, if there is pain afterwards, its just the numbing wearing off.
