Shameful and embarrassing but I really need help and advice. PLEASE
Here I am turning 60 and still in total fear of the dentist. I have to go, I am in fear of serious health issues if I don't. I have already lost enamel from my teeth through grinding.
the problem is now beyond fear, I did make myself go last year finally, for the first time in I can't say really.... The awful emotion was not enough, I kept gagging and retching. The poor dentist was at a loss. This is serious, I can't have anything in my mouth fir more than a couple of seconds. I had an endoscopy recently and after they placed the mouth piece it became a major event to whip it out due to major heaving. they had to place it when I was asleep.
I seriously hope there is help here, I HAVE to be able to try and rescue what is left of my teeth and prevent illness.
