Ditto! I haven’t been in years! I take a lot of vitamin D though, which is supposed to help with dental health. I get freaked out when I get tooth aches, but every time so far, all it’s ended up coming from, is the skin of popcorn kernels getting lodged uncomfortably between the crevices of my teeth. I eat so much popcorn, I know just assume that’s what it is when I get a toothache, and just dislodge it with floss!
I am more afraid of dentist bills than drills though, but if I have the option of a drill going into my head or not, it’s a pretty easy choice to make…
And my dentist growing up was mean! …which wasn’t a good personalty trait for comforting freaked out kids like my brother. I think my brother bit him once… lol
I totally understand. I’m so terrified of going that nothing drugs me. I don’t freeze and I can have enough sedation to knock out an over sized male and it doesn’t work. I need to go too and just can’t bring myself to do so. All the best xo
Had to laugh, although I do understand your nervousness. I only had laughing gas once, in my twenties, and all I remember is making up some stupid song in my head to coincide with the sound of the drill. Sure hope I didn’t sing that song out loud!
