Hi there!
This is my first thread, sorry in advance for any grammar/spelling mistakes.
So, I really really need to vent.
The background:
I've been always terrified of wisdom teeth removal, I've seen friends and family going through REALLY bad experiences with that.
When I was about 13 years old I got my orthodontal treatment done. My teeth were perfect. Later on, with 16 y.o. my orthodontist told me: let's take an x-ray and get the wisdom teeth extractions done next month. I never came back although he was really nice to me. Needless to say, my teeth are all "misplaced" now, just because of this **** wisdom tooth. I'm ashamed of my mouth, but I just can't stand the idea of the extraction.
I also had a really bad experience with "uncaring dentist", wich was so disappointing because she was my dentist since I was a little kid, always very caring and warm. That day I said it was hurting and she was like: oh, but it's so shallow! You don't need any anesthesia for that! And I'm almost finished by now! - And she was NEVER finished >.< This was the last time I saw her, or any other dentist.

Today I'm 20 y.o. and few days ago my gums got really swallowed and it's hurting like hell. Looks like it's the wisdom teeth coming up, but there's no room for it!
So, that's it. I've been crying in terror for the last 3 hours because I'll HAVE to go and get the extraction done [and that makes the pain even worse]. But I'm so afraid D:
I don't even know how to start, how to call the dentist or what to tell him/her. I'm seriously thinking about going to my grandmother's dentist, she is experienced with children and people with alzheimer, sclerosis, etc.
I really don't know how to explain, it just makes me wanna wake up from this terrible nightmare.
