Good afternoon!
Don’t worry about the root canal procedure.
To calm yourself you can discuss your fears with your dentist so that the procedure goes smooth.
All the best

If you are scared of dental procedure my advice is to find a good dentist first. He knows his job well. Rest party Is psychological so you can consult your psychologist in The town. He can advice you how to remain calm in your stressful sessions.

Hi,
Yes you must discuss your fear with the dentist. This will help the dentist in keeping you calm during the procedure. A method that you can make from your side is listen to music so that your mind is diverted and you are thinking less about the dental procedure.
