Unfortunately, DD(5) has teeth crowding issues which have caused her to get several cavities. The pediatric dentist wants to put her under a general anesthesia to fill all of these cavities at one time- he is also talking about a possible root canal or cap on one of the back teeth depending on what he finds. He has a good reputation; however, this whole thing makes me very nervous. We are going to get an opinion from another pediatric dentist; however, DH saw the X-rays and does believe that this guy is probably legitimate in regard to the cavities existing. I was just wondering if any of the Disers, have had any experience with this. Did you do the general anesthesia? How did it go? Really any information you can give me would be appreciated.
