Ok so I have autisum and anexity disorder. I went for my last check and had a new dentist who made me boom a teeth cleaning after the cleaning he told if I didn’t keep up to date with brushing my teeth he would not help me and my teeth would fall out this made me very anxious all day. And I needed up needing to be claimed down. I have an appointment on Tuesday and feeling very anxious about seeing that dentist again. My last dentist was great he help claim my neves and told me if I improve my my brushing I would have nothing to worry about. Diffent aprounces what should I do
Hi there and sorry to hear that your current dentist has made you feel like that! I thought this information from our website might be helpful https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/physical-health/going-to-the-dentist/autistic-adults there are some other links on that page that talk about bushing teeth etc as well so have a look and see if anything is helpful there - I hope your next appointment wont be as tough!
Best,
