Im going insane and need somewere to vent this! Due to a very painfull extraction at an emergancy dentist 5 years ago i have never been back to the dentist. I have a bad cavity on one of my lower back molers and baisicly half a tooth left there, it has been like this for sometime but because of my fears of the denist i desided to wait untill it became painfull and yep it sure did! After a night of agony i plucked up the courage to get an appointment. As i guessed i was told i would need it extracting and my extraction is due in 2 days time. I am terrifed, its all i can think of. I called the dentist and told them i was so nervous and the receptionist said i should come speak to the dentist and they could maybe offer an iv sedation. My treatment will be on the nhs and im pretty sure it wont cover the iv? i am willing to pay extra if it will really help me but wondering how good this treatment is? Im worried if i get there and deside i need the iv sedation will my appointment need to be rescedualed? I dont think i can cope with anymore time worrying. My dentist is really nice and has great recomendations but i still carnt help but be petrified! Im scared of the injections, the pulling everything! Mainly the actual pulling as this is when i felt the pain last time, im having panic attacks just thinking of this.. PLEAAASEEE HELP!!
