Teeth!

Hi everybody, Matthew here.

Every night I do my teeth and I'm almost certain that I don't do them for two minutes but usually in the mornings I never ever do my teeth. I was just wondering if anyone else has these same problems and if they do what causes them, I'm confused!

Why don't I like doing them?

Thanks to everybody who replies. Smile

Regards,

Matthew.

    jamie,

    you have a choice. Follow outraged's extreme DIY methods or do something different that should be much less distressing. doing nothing isn't a great option as you end up, sooner or later, with a bigger crisis.

    I had to go to the D at christmas, a tooth broke and just had to be sorted out. I dreaded it but went along, i told them how i hated going to the dentists. He promised it wouldn't hurt and it actually didn't! I think that he was a particularly good dentist but maybe they use better needles and anaesthetic nowadays. This was pre diagnosis - i think i would rationalise it better now!

    you have to summon every bit of determination and logic to cope and, i was practically sobbing at the end but you can and will get through it. Cling on to your rational brain that understands that you can get through the ordeal and let them do what you know has to be done.

    i took my mp3 player and earphones in and tried to concentrate on the music whilst it was happening and this helped too.
