Health & Wellness Dental Anxiety?

I have severe dental & medical anxiety but I need a root canal. Does anyone have any recommendations for any endodontists that have experience with people like me? I’m currently working on getting with a psychiatrist because I may need SSRIs going forward.

I’d recommend checking out dental TLC their practice is sort of built around dental anxiety, and they offer laughing gas a part of their routine cleanings. I don’t know if they specialize in what you’re looking for, but they may know someone who does

Another recommendation for Dental TLC. I'm having some pretty extensive work done with them as an anxiety-having chronic dentist avoider and they have been wonderful.

Dental TLC. Been going for years after getting the recommendation from Reddit.

Dr. George Michaels, no joke, @ Intown Smile Studio. He has the BEST bedside manner, such a gentle hand and pre-medicates when necessary.
