Lip injections with anesthesia?

July 14, 2015
Asked By:RottieMama in San Diego, CA

I am horrible with needles in my mouth. I don't get novocaine at the dentist because of how much the needles freak me out. I'm afraid that if I tried I to get lip injections I would pass out. Is there an option to be under GA or something similar?
