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  

    I sympathise with you as I have a fear of having anything done too, though from what you say about your dentist, you will be in good hands. 

    Go easy on the dentist, try not to let the reflex kick action come into play!

    It's not just the reflex kick action, it's the batter someone to death instinct that I worry about! I'm not as bad as I used to be, but I have fought back because my ex husband tried to take my coat off so as I could have an injection, I imediately went into strangle hold break and punch away. I did manage to sit in the chair and have a 60ml valium injection, that was when I found out that valium dosen't work on me, as after 30 mins I was fighting and asking for the other 20ml they had in reserve.

    I expect I will get an OMG reaction when they see my mouth, it's what I usually get, hopefully they won't try and push a load cosmetic stuff on me like the last lot, they only seemed interested in doing implants and facial fillers. I wonder if some of them don't deliberately make your teeth worse so you either have to have all thier expensive stuff or no teeth? I think lots of people have no option but to have no teeth as you'd need a second mortgage to afford what they want you to have.

    Now I have to go to the minor injuries unit because I think I might have broken my arm falling over Boris cat.
