Hi all.. I have had dental phobia almost all my life but made worse by soviet dental care years ago... my teeth are bad, my fears are big and it has resulted dentist to pull out all my upper teeth on right side...
i have so much more work to do but i am terrified.. i guess my biggest fear is getting sepsis after dental work, after they pull out more teeth or after root canal... i know i need to go and take care of teeth but i have mojor fear something going wrong
 
Hi rintsike and :welcome:, so sorry to hear about your past traumatic experiences with dental care :(. Sepsis is an incredibly rare event after dental work, and most dentists will never encounter it during their entire career. Is there any particular reason why you think you might develop sepsis?
