DENTISTS! Anyone else petrified?
Absolutely petrified to the point where I haven't been for about 10 years and luckily haven't needed to. However, a small hole in my tooth which I've had for a few years but wasn't bothering me turned into the whole tooth crumbling over Christmas but I wasn't getting any pain so still left it.
This week though I've been getting extreme pain and I know I'll have to give in and go but I'm so scared :( It's not just a "don't like dentists" it's a genuine fear. Anyone else like this with dentists? |
is there a reason you’re so scared :umm2:
i’m not scared at all it’s just a chore going :skull: |
my dentist is gorgeous so am fine with ha fingering my mouth
|
I used to be but after I got braces it was just meh get on with it.
I go free though so I go every 6 months, if only go when I needed to otherwise! |
I’m not scared of going, but once I’m there and in the waiting room, being able to hear like, the drills and stuff being used freaks me right out
|
I’m not scared of going either. I had to have two fillings and a tooth taken out when I was younger so I never really had a fear of going as I got older.

I used to shake just taking the kids for their check ups.
Ended up pulling some of my teeth out myself when needed. I can remember the dentist coming out and giving me a calming cuddle in a full waiting room when he took two of my son’s teeth out, quite embarrassing, but very understanding dentist.:blush: |

I'm hoping the pain will go away but I can't see it happening
|
it's time to go to them :devil:
|
I don't like going but it's better to than leave it.
I left my teeth go really bad when I was very ill with anxiety/depression (I was a recluse basically), the meds I was on killed nerves in my teeth and rotted around some fillings I already had and I ended up having abscesses... Nothing a dentist will do to you will be as painful as that trust me!! I ended up having 4 teeth out and 4 fillings in one sitting last September and it was a breeze and kind of did away with any of my nerves about dentists! Just the injections that stung a bit and then lots of tugging :laugh2: |

Avoid them
Money greedy pigs |
I hate the thought of going, but it’s okay once I’m there, if they could do away with the drill noises it wouldn’t be so bad,

I'm not particularly scared of them but I do find the whole thing pretty horrible.. some bloke sticking his hand in your mouth and the drill against your teeth when that needs doing and last time I was there they scraped away some plaque which made me wince a bit. I can't imagine actually being a dentist, you have to inflict so much pain and you see people in such a vulnerable state :worry:
|
I've just lost my balls up inside my body.

I haven't had stabbing pain for about 20 minutes :dance:
I'm CURED |
Not scared of them but haven't been for 4 years if not more. Just because I begrudged paying 20 quid for them to check my teeth which are fine. They are still fine without going to the dentist
|
It's the thing I'm scared of the most honestly

And when I had to get my wisdom tooth removed last year I had to go to multiple appointments within the span of like 2-3+ months it was a mess :skull: |
