I have lived in Houston all my life, and I love this city. But now I also have a new love. I love my sedation dentist. Last month when I needed to have three fillings and a root canal, my dentist suggested using a mild sedative so that he could stay in my mouth and do more work than he would usually attempt in a regular visit. I was a little nervous until he gave me the sedative. Although I was awake, I was not bothered at all, even when he did extensive work in that one visit. I’m glad I won’t have to schedule several more appointments to get everything done. The worst is over.
