Does Getting a Cavity Filled Affect Colitis?

Hello Fellow UC’ers…
I’m currently on the SCD diet, about 5 months on it….
Well I have been eating healthier than my 85 year old Grandma, but now I have to get a cap on a tooth.
I had a molar chip about 4 years ago, and got it fixed, well I went to the dentist and now I have to get a cap on it otherwise its going to decay my tooth or something, I really don’t notice anything wrong, but I suppose I get it fixed, since I may be getting braces….
But to get to the point, if they numb my mouth and whatever they do, wouldn’t that affect my Colitis???
Could I get a flare up??
PLEASE HELP!!
THANKS!!
