Can I be sedated for tooth extraction on the NHS?

I have 3 very bad teeth, they have cracked down the side and only the filling and the other side of the tooth are left. There isnt really anything the dentist can grip too to pull it out on one side.





I am very scared of the dentist and would like to be asleep when they do this.


Can I get it done on the NHS ( i have found a local NHS dentist)? Do they need a licence to do it?





How much does it cost?

Reply:local anasthetic is just as good i swear you cannot feel it at all. and it is less dangerous than being put to sleep apparently
Reply:local anesthesia will work fine, may be your dentist wants you to be more relax, but there is no mayor complication is you decide on the local anesthesia. Even with no tooth to grab on, we have many non invasive ways to remove a broken tooth. be calm.
