i feel like i'm going backwards. i have a great dentist that i've been seeing for almost three years. many sucessful visits. but EVERY TIME i am still so scared beforehand. why? it doesn't make sense. i do a lot of positive self talk, and still i have problems.
i'm curious if anyone finds themselves in the same situation as me. how do you cope? can you get yourself in the right frame of mind?
i have to go tomorrow for some work to be done prior to crowning a tooth i recently had a root canal on. i don't like the work a bit, but it doesn't scare me near as much as having the impressions done, which i'm sure will take place tomorrow. this will be the third time i've done them. i hate that i get so scared, i know it's really simple. but i am having a hard time getting myself to bed tonight, because it puts me that much closer to the dreaded appt.
any words of advice? does anyone else hate the impressions as much as me? how do you cope with them?
thanks for listening...
