Last year I went to the dentist, and they said I had a cavity. My husband left on 15 month deployment so during that time I was too distracted to even remember the cavity. Now my husband just got home, and I went to the dentist now they say I need to get a root canal because I didn't get my cavity filled. I am so nervous, and I don't want to go (in 2 hours). Do you think if I drink (alcohol) before I go to calm down, and relax that it would be a bad idea? I'm really nervous.
