Just typed in to search engine ‘what to expect when not been to dentist in 35 yrs’. Never even dared to type such a thing before or even type the word ‘teeth’. I guess I’m on the first rung of the ladder. I know I’m lucky with my teeth. Coupe of fillings when I was a kid but that’s it. Had a hole in my tooth for about 5 years now- No pain. No tooth ache. Never had growths or anything. However I know they are brown at the back from smoking. And also hard plaque is hanging over my gums.(I think that’s what it is). And my teeth dont feel as ‘tight’ if that makes sense and they are sensitive.. See... I literally have NO idea. But I think that’s bad so I’m ready to go to the dentist as I don’t want to wait until something drastic happens. I can’t be like ‘if it ain’t broke...’ anymore. I can’t believe I’m even writing this I’m so terrified. I imagine big needles and the worst pain. And them making problems when there wasn’t problems, or telling me I need work when I don’t, to rip me off like kwikfit. I simply have no idea what to expect- or what can be done if they find I have terrible things going on. Bit of encouragement would be useful! Thanks!
