I’ve made posts in the past and I’m embarrassed to admit I still haven’t seen a dentist. It’s mostly because of lack of time now (trucking job) and getting time off is extremely difficult. Well I am thrilled to say I have dental insurance now and in September the wait period is over and I’ll get help on extensive treatment.
Yesterday I found a dentist close to my house that sounds wonderful, they understand anxious patients and have great google reviews. I requested an appointment and when they called me a few hours later I let it go to voicemail..I’m so ashamed I want to cry. When they called I felt such intense fear I wanted to throw my phone. The insane thing is I NEED to go. I KNOW it logically. Why can’t I make the appointment!? My gingivitis seems to get worse never better and my front teeth are crooked and chipped. I want to fix my issues.
I don’t know what to do to force myself to make the call. I wish I wasn’t so scared of the dentist. I guess I wanted to get this off my mind and into the internet void. If you have advice and similar experiences please share!
