When undergoing a root canal, it's important to inform your dentist that you have myasthenia gravis (MG). Here are some key points to consider:

- Local Anesthesia: Local anesthesia, such as numbing injections, is typically used for dental procedures like root canals. This is generally safe for people with MG.
- Medications: Continue taking your MG treatments until the morning of the procedure, unless instructed otherwise by your care team.
