With the help of everyone here, I got through two roots canals earlier this year and some weird jaw pain (which is soooo much better now). I saw a periodontist and began seeing the hygienist every few months. Yesterday was my six month check up with the dentist, plus a perio cleaning. I never thought I could go to a dentist like a normal person, without weeks of anticipation, anxiety and fear, but this time I did! Sure, I had some anxiety, but nowhere near the debilitating fear I had before. I credit this forum for being a wonderful resource and support and getting me to this point. I could not have done it without all of you. Oh, and the dentist said things look great with my teeth, but we’re still working on the gums. 
There is hope for us dental fear sufferers! Things can get better!
