Hi, I haven't posted on here for years but I'm going through anxiety at the moment.
I found out last Friday I have to have a tooth out. It was a shock as I was only told a month ago that it needed a chip repairing.
I came away with antibiotics and the dentist inserted some antibiotic cream in the cavity.
My appointment is set for this Friday and I am absolutely terrified!
I am ashamed to say I haven't been to work all week and I can't think of anything but what's going to happen on Friday.
The tooth in question has had 2 previous fillings a long time ago. Both times the numbing didn't work properly. The first time the dentist didn't believe me even though I was crying. He said he knew his job. The second time with a different dentist and he put some more anaesthetic in.
There must be a reason why this tooth doesn't numb easily. I am just worried sick they will start to take it out and its going to really hurt!
I have a new dentist I have been with since last year and she is amazing! I have told her my concerns but I still can't help worrying!
Any advice please as I'm going out of my mind at the moment!
Thank you
