No laughing gas or anesthesia? I figure I will need something like 8 root canals & 6 teeth pulled. I'm not a huge fan of dentist pain.

It depends on each persons specific dental needs. But they generally just do the shots.

Keep in mind, if any of your dental work includes anesthesia it becomes a surgery and you have to report it to meps

Can you get kicked out of boot camp if you need a lot of dental work?

This question has been answered many times.

It is very unlikely that, if you passed meps, you will be separated for dental.
