I know you are laughing now but seriously, several years ago I went in for a major complicated root canal and was having trouble keeping my butt in the chair even. The dentist was really nice (and hawt!) and joked around about tequila shooters so I mentioned that if I'd just had a nice big glass of wine I'd have probably been a much more mellow patient. He said he had plenty of patients who needed some sort of meds in advance, some take Valium or something similar, and he was fine with that as long as I told him what I had taken so he could be prepared & plan accordingly. I guess his feeling was that if the patient needed a little somethin' to take the edge off and relax, it was going to go easier for both the patient and the dentist to get through the procedure.Kathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01966643349355325198noreply@blogger.com
