Sounds as if you found a good one!

I'm getting a root canal on the tooth that has lost its filling.

This is a real test of pain-free dentistry! I've had several done, and two dentists did it well, while two others nearly lost their lives... I don't 'do' pain well...

Also both of my lower wisdom teeth needs to come out, not because they are rotten but because they're just "not right".

Often, the best thing about Wisdom teeth is not having them any longer! I had all four removed at once, under a general anesthesia, so I didn't experience any pain during the removal. And as you can imagine, having four raw, empty holes in my jaw wasn't fun for the first few days, but not really painful. Then... pure joy when I realized my head no longer felt as if it was being clamped in a bench vice! I didn't realize it while I had the teeth, but I sure realized the joy afterwards!

I know I'm going to be nervous next week, but I won't be scared like today.

I think you will do fine!
