In the next couple of weeks, I go back to the dentist to get a couple teeth extracted.. (My adult teeth) I'm so afraid of the dentist. From when I first walk into the dentist the smell the sight.. Everything in my mind is telling me not to get it done. I have already got diagnosed with periodontal disease & severe tooth decay... All on the top row almost all the enamel is gone off my teeth, None of them are broken off yet, (that I know of)
I will be awake through this procedure & I know that he will numb my mouth but I'm so scared that something is going to go wrong or that I will feel it. I've only ever had a filling filled before.
The thought of me getting this done, is horrible. In my mind I can't do it. I'm trying not to back out. My husband is making me go cause it is getting worse & the pain I have in my mouth now is horrible. I've been on Orajel for almost 3 years now with this going on.
About a month ago was my first time to the dentist in a long time. Over 15 years. & He was just looking in my mouth, & I was shaking in fear. He does however want to clean my teeth first. "to see how much pain I can handle" was his words. All though I have never heard a dentist say that before. I think I would rather just have them taken out. But how? I'm so afraid & I honestly don't think that I can get through this.... Even though I want to so bad, Just to get them out..
How long does it take per tooth after they numb you?
I just want to get this over & done with..... I really hope that I can just go in there & be brave & get it done & over with... But I don't see that happening.
