Hi, this issue might seem really pathetic to some but my mental health isn't great anyway so this seems to be taking over my life right now.
I am dental phobic and have a severely bad gag reflex. This is after a number of bad experiences over the years. I can even have a mirror put in my mouth without gagging.
i currently have a need for a couple of fillings and am in quite a bit of pain.
A few days ago, i went to dentist and got IV sedation. I don't remember anything but apparently I was fine getting injection and a couple more xrays but when they went to start the treatment, they said I would not open my mouth for anything. I dont understand what happened but im still here in pain and at a complete loss of what to do.
Has anyone ever had a similar experience under sedation or any have any advice on what to do to get IV to work because I dont know where to go from here.
