Dentist

Deleted user over 3 years ago

Hello my name is Simon I have been diagnosed with autism recently and I am thinking about going to the dentist soon but I have a ginormous fear of the dentist I haven’t been since I was at school I have a bad tooth it’s got a big cavity and it’s black inside it doesn’t hurt and I brush my teeth 2 times a day and use mouthwash but I know I can’t put it of forever.

does anyone have any advice should I mention that I’m autistic would that help?

Hi Former Member,

I'm sorry to hear that you are worried about going to the dentist. you may like to have a look at the following information for autistic adults from the NAS website about visiting the dentist:

I hope this helps,
