My daughter is 19, her dentist noticedc last year that her impacted wisdom teeth needed to be removed but didn't tell her until this year. All 4 are impacted.We've had a consult with an oral surgeon, who told us he'd use general anesthesia. My daughter was born with a hole in her heart. It has since closed up and she has palpitations and is under a cardiologists care.She's worried as I am , after seeing all of these plastic surgery nightmares, plus the fact that the oral surgeon told me, in front of my daughter, that 'there are always risks'.OMG, that terrified us both. The date of her surgery is Dec 28 and she's worried already, Christmas will be a disaster.I mean, she faints over blood being drawn. I'm scared for her. Any advice? The doc mentioned laughing gas, she cannot have any epi .Do you know of anything that could work besides general?I know I have a fib, a heart condition and I cannot have general.HELP!
