Don't be apprehensive re the treatment, you will be fine, better to get it done now, rather that loose a holiday because of pain. I saw a chap a couple of weeks ago the day he flew out to Dahab, he was most grateful to have things sorted so he could enjoy his diving.
Good luck and let us know how it turns out,

Are you a dentist?
I'm sure you're a very nice person but you people scare me witless.
I've changed my appointment to Friday 9am. Can I take Nurofen and soluble aspirin at the same time?
