I’m 23 and I’m genuinely petrified of the dentist - in fact I feel like that word doesn’t even come close to how I feel! I can count the amount of times I’ve been on one hand because the fear was so crippling I just refused to go. I hate anything medical (hospitals, doctors, etc) but the worst is the dentist. My biggest insecurity is my teeth, I’m so embarrassed of them, some are in a bad way and I know I need them sorted because they can be painful at times, but the anxiety is so intense. I really need some advice or just some reassurance that I’m not alone with the phobia and that I’m not going to feel judged. Also, some advice on finding a highly sympathetic dentist would be greatly appreciated ☹
