Hi I have an exam in 3 weeks with my new dentist and I already know he’ll want me to do a deep clean. Well I’m mostly ok with it except everyone I asked who’ve had it ALWAYS make it sound like the needle was horrendous pain and they wanted to die and now my nerves are shot imagining this awful pain. Can I expect the amount of pain they’ve told me to expect? Or are they just trying to scare me? I’m trying everything to not cancel because I definitely need to see the dentist..it’s long overdue.
