geez! our boys are getting some fillings this month,
but our dentist uses locals only.
that is one heck of a drug smorgasboard for a 5 yr old!
Most dentist use what that one did as a last resort. Actually General Dentist should not be doing such a thing at all. It falls more in the line of an Oral Surgeon. Most General dentist would refer a patient to such. I've had tooth extractions of one entire side of my mouth at a time in a dentist office and only had locals for pain.
