phetaroi Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Anyone ever go to Bangkok Hospital for their dental work? I have to have nitrous oxide for one section of my mouth, and they offer it. Money is not a concern. Quality work is. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxout Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Yes, they've got a very wide range of specialists there, and it's a particularly good place if you've got a more complex problem than a few fillings or crowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds perfect. For 80% of my mouth, a shot always does it. But due to some childhood surgery I am in agony on my upper front four teeth...and I do mean agony. Shots do nothing at all. Nitrous oxide there usually gets me through. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you really need your tooth to be totally numb....novacaine injection will be best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I believe novacaine was replaced many decades ago as a large number of people have allergic reactions to it. Xylocaine is what most dentists use now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, thanks for your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
