I have amelogenesis imperfecta, (no enamel on teeth, open bite on one side and weak teeth. Had veneers and crowns several times when a child before anyone had ever heard of them. Felt like I was experimented on in dental hospital. Now not been to dentist in 15 years, except the time I ran out the room when he said extraction. Have lots of broken teeth stuck in my gums which are also receding badly and my jaw clicks now. A new tooth broke a couple days ago and is loose now I'm to scared to eat because it hurts.
I've no option but to go now and face some extensive work but my fear of dentist and needles is so much, if I think about it when I'm at home, I get emotional and cry and just feel unwell all round. I won't leave the house or even my bed most of the time. Its so embarrassing and nobody is interested in helping.
How do people get over this.
