Tell yourself you're lucky, I've developed a resistance to the conventional sedative dentists use and I need 4-6 shots to get the effects.

have you googled "pain-free dentistry"? if you live close to a major city I am sure there are dentists who will cater to your particular needs. :)

many dentists have gas. don't know if the Medicaid would pay for it though. my Medicaid doesn't even pay for dental.
