OK i am really pleased to have stumbled upon this site - i am really scared of the dentist, my phobia stems from a childhood visit to a really bad dentist - i was given the old style gas and reacted badly to it - i was also left in agony and from what i remember lost a fair bit of blood ! Anyway, it is well over 10 years since i last visited a dentist, i have done my best to keep my teeth clean etc but i know i need to visit a dentist soon. I have wisdom teeth that in the past year or so have started to cause crowding on my other teeth - it isn't too noticeable at the moment, but i know it needs sorting - i only ever had 1 filling and the tooth that was filled is no longer there -- it is basically like an hole with part of the old tooth still in - i am getting constant pain here and i think this is caused by the pressure from the wisdom tooth ... maybe pushing tooth into the gum etc etc - i would imagine i need quite a bit of work and i really don't have a clue how to address these issues - i have no fear of doctors or operations - i have had surgery a few times and it doesn't bother me at all - but the dentist scares the hell out of me
So any help advice appreciated - i am also worried and embarrased about asking friends/family for help so this place is a lifeline
