Here are some things I practised/did prior to a recent 1st dental treatment in 15+ years.
I looked up the patron Saint of teeth.....Saint Apollonia, and found a site with prayers to her directed at different aspects of dental fear/phobia....and I prayed.
I researched crystals for grounding, balancing, anxiety etc. bought some and arrived with different stones secreted about me.
By chance I came across a technique called havening....a self soothing technique using stroking movements......it is really relaxing and can even be done in dentist's chair (I forgot!)
And of course I overdosed on Rescue Remedy.
Whatever gets you through.
