I'm not having gas." >> So the dentist steps out and comes back with a glass of water, >> "here," he says. "Take this pill." >> The man asks, "What is it?" >> The doc replies, "Viagra." >> The man looks surprised, "will that kill the pain?" he asks. >> "No," replies the dentist...

Sedatives are now a real alternative. pop a pill the night before your appointment and then another just before your appt...you will be out cold for the whole process. needs to be prescribed by your dentist, however.
