Wish me luck for thursday

Please, I have to go to the dentist and I don't like dentists, they only people scarier than dentists are hygenists.

I think I may have a abcess in one of my uper teeth or the gap where one was, I have quite bad nerve damage to my teeth and have previously had some nerves removed. This means that I often don't know that anythings wrong until its really bad.

At least this lot are used to dealing with people with multiple allergies, ND and the terrified. I think they should be scared with the prices these private places charge, but there's not other option, there are no NHS dentists taking patients on, so its £125-250 per filling, I dread to think what it would cost if I needed anything more complicated.

The appointments for 10am, thats the middle of the night!

  • Good luck for tomorrow! Hope everything goes well for you <3

    I fully understand your fears with this. I have a terrible fear of dentists as well and haven't seen one since I was about 13... Really should go but the anxiety gets so bad just thinking about it! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you for tomorrow.

  • It would be good if there was a service you could just tick a box on a website to say who you need to see (dentist, doctor etc.) and they sort it out for you.  Going is another thing, but at least then it would be arranged without that side of the stress!
