Hi there. I've just signed up to this site as I have my first filling on a bottom molar tomorrow and I am absolutely terrified. Can anyone provide any reassurances that might comfort me with just 24 hours to go?
I've had teeth out in the past and coped ok with the injection/extraction. It's the drill that gives me the most fear - I struggle even with a scale and polish, the feeling goes right through me and I often have to ask the dentist to stop. Desperate to not be a drama queen tomorrow and act like a grown woman!! Dentist is really nice and advised me to wear earphones, but i don't think this will help with the drill feeling..
Thank you in advance if anyone can help!
** Forgot to add that the teeth extractions were when I was a young teenager, and somehow was a lot more brave than I am now. Put off going to the dentist for 7 years before this and this filling is my first treatments
