2nd appointment in 30 years today,anxiety starts again

The relief really is brilliant. Just keep going and fixate on the moment it’s all done and you’re out the door!
 
Great to hear that everything went well - well done and congrats ? ?

Thanks letsconnect much appreciated...another thing done of the list , slowly getting the jobs done ? and dealing with the he anxiety of it all ..tho the injections into the roof of the mouth iam not liking lol but it's only a few seconds ???
 
Well another trip to the dentist tomorrow afternoon ? anxiety starts again ..... Think it's to get another front tooth taken out ... hopefully in and out ...love that feeling of leaving the place lol ...and hate the feeling going in ... Tbh hate these injections into the top of the mouth ..I know it's just a second or 2 but ? hate them .... hopefully everything is done quick and easy and no pain like the last time
 
Best of luck for your appointment tomorrow Jay ?, could you let your dentist know how much you’re dreading the top injections? Sometimes it’s as easy as leaving the numbing gel on for longer and really slowing down while numbing you up. Keeping my fingers crossed ?!!

No harm in asking about it ?
 
Good luck Jay! :clover:

Good cats ? 2 fillings done today ?.. the injection was abit deeper this time but wasn't to bad & never felt anything during the fillings ..another bit ticked off ... Back nxt Monday tho for another 2 .... Then start on my top front teeth next which need crowns & bridges so fingers crossed it all goes smoothly .. thanks for asking
 
Good job jay!!! Every visit gets you closer to being finished all the work! I go back in a few weeks for more fillings. Can’t wait for it all to be over! We will celebrate with our fixed teeth then :)

Well about to go for my next appointment ????...couple of fillings at the front bottom to be done today ..... The anxiety madness ... Hopefully quick and easy and home
 
hey Jay, im brand new here but im in a similar boat. Im 30 and have avoided the dentist for years and now im facing the music of having to go back after a rear tooth cracked in half. Anyway, your thread has provided me some peace of mind. thanks for that :)

Good luck with your appointment today!
 
Hope it all went well Jay
