I am 45 years old and haven't been to a dentist in a long time (15-20 years) mostly because of my extreme fear. I've developed anxiety over the years, which in turn, has made it difficult for me to see a dentist (as well as other medical professionals). I know I need alot of work done (teeth broken off, loose teeth, etc.) It is now difficult to eat. I can't tell you the last time I was able to eat an apple or corn on the cob. I think about my teeth constantly (day in and day out). My teeth are not the worst teeth I've seen, but I can't seem to get past the embarassment of not seeing a dentist for so many years. I want my beautiful smile back. I do know which dentist I'd like to go to, I just need a push to get me there. I'm tired of living this way! Need some encouragement and support! Please help!
