Okay mom's. HELP ME... 🙏🙏.
My 3.5 year old has to have two fillings tomorrow. They told me they are only doing laughing gas, bc they don't have the equipment to put him under. If he doesn't do well, and throws a fit they will give him shots to numb him.. I'm so scared for him little man.. They advised me to not go back since I'm pregnant. So my MIL will be going back, and I'll be in the waiting room. I feel horrible about doing that to him, but I HATE seeing him in pain, I'm not the calm parent, and SO has to work, and can't get off.. please, tell me one of you moms had a 3 year old that needed fillings!!

My son needed fillings when he was four. They used the laughing gas on him and he didn't freak out at all. They put on a movie for him and he zoned out watching that during the whole process. It was hilarious how loopy he was afterwards. He knocked out for a few hours once we left. But over all it was a good experience for him. He wasn't in pain or anything. I do advise you watch him closely after. My son bit his lip before falling asleep because it was numb. So I got extra trays to replace them if they slipped out.

Trays? What do they put on their teeth for children fillings? This is all new to me, bc he went to dentist 6m ago for a cleaning and it was all too, and 6m later for his cleaning they said he needs this fillings and just said "laughing gas, nothing else" ahh. I'm so nervous for him!

@morgyporgypudninpie I'm just so scared, bc he has had a bad experience with a dentist b4 where they tortured him a bit I think? They wouldn't let me go back with him at all, and he came back to me with a bloody mouth and wouldn't let anyone but me around him and when a dentist or anyone in scrubs came around him he screamed bloody murder, and that's why I'm so scared for him to not be put to sleep...

My 2 year old had to have fillings and they strapped him down like what u would see on a crazy person put into a white padded room it was kinda hard to watch but they did that because he started crying before he even got the gas so they couldn’t give it to him then they gave him a numbing shot

My 5 year old had to have 3 molars removed when he was 4 but they had to put him to sleep for that. And had them replaced with silver ones he woke up a little I pain and drowsy from everything but it's all for the better . He's feeling great now and hasn't had any problems so far.

@taylorsmommy1017 even let him go alone at 3 1/2? His dentist advised me not to be the one to go back with him since I am pregnant (33w) so my mother n law is going back with him. I want to, but I'm not to calm when it comes to him in pain especially since an odd dentist of his tortured him "I think" he came out all bloody, and swollen, and anyone in scrubs he'd scream, and start swinging around yelling get away from him.. So since then I've changed Dentist, and he's had two cleanings and this is the first fillings with new dentist. Ahhh! I'm scared, but I shall see how it goes! Thank you all! 👌
