Dental Issues

This is an embarrassing one tbh so helpful comments only please. I'm autistic and as a child (and teen tbh) I really, really struggled with sensory issues when it came to dental care. I was only diagnosed recently and as much as I accept it, I also want to work on making steps to improve some of the damages it's causes. So I'm hoping I might find people on here who have had the same or similar struggles so I don't feel quite as weird, and also if there any any dentists in the Manchester region who people recommend as having an understanding of this situation who I can go to without feeling judgement. Thank you all so much in advance

  • There are loads of people who are afraid of the dentist so don’t worry you aren’t the only one. I don’t know Manchester region that well but the one I go to on the Wirral has been great for me. They have sorted everything to make me feel at ease and aren’t judgemental either. But that is on the Wirral so I’m assuming that like at least an hour commute. Hope you find something soon!
