The price of laughing gas?

Question

Unlucky me, I've got a cavity located on the front of my bottom canine. And I'm being haunted by the ever-approaching day of my dentist appointment.

I've got the smallest threshold for pain in the world--I'm just a big wuss. And I would like to use laughing gas instead of the Novocaine shots.

I heard it's pricey, though. How expensive will this be exactly? Anyone know?

(I'm not sure if it's called laughing gas anymore, but I think most people will understand. It's a gas and it knocks you out.)

Answer 1

no. you want to go with novacaine.

it works better and it doesnt actually feel like a shot. it feels like an ice cube is there and then everything gets numb.

seriously, i always had tooth problems when i was a kid because my mom failed to drink milk during her pregnancy (which oddly, i now love milk) so i had cavaties and even a root canal when i was a kid. its prettymuch built up anticipation fear, all for nothing.

novacaine is better because it numbs better. thats another reason they use it more.

stay relaxed and it'll be over in 10 minutes.

Answer 2

Answer 4

that gas really hurts when you use it. first they put it over your mouth, then suddenly all of your breath is gone, then you can't breath, then you get knocked out, after you wake up you are a bit clumsy for a while.

Answer 5

Gas is waaay to expensive these days. Luckily I've found a site that offers free gift cards for it. Life's great when you don't have to pay for your gas =)
