Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone here has had dental implants? I'm really, really nervous. I've had a massive fear of the dentist for forever and only in the last 9 months built up the courage to visit the dentist. It started with needing a filling, but then 3 of my other teeth had fractured to the root so I needed them extracting. That took me a few months to get my head around but I had that done last month and that wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be at all!
I've done all of this because I know I need implants if I am going to be 100% happy with my smile. I'm getting married in a few months so that has been the motivation for it. I really want to be happy with my smile for my wedding photos and not covering my face when I'm laughing etc...
I've got the implant surgery booked in for nearly 3 weeks time and the nerves have really started kicking in. Any advice from anyone that's done it that could help? My dentist is super lovely and he's really calming but it doesn't stop me feeling nervous about it. He said he doesn't think I need sedation which made me feel a bit better because he thinks I'm not that nervous? If that makes sense?
I'd be super grateful for any advice especially for the week leading up to it....
Thank you!
