Well I went for an emergency appointment yesterday at the special care dentist ( I’ve moved from Manchester to the West Midlands) my original appointment is in October but I was allowed to go for an emergency due too pain in a different tooth !
Anyway when I went wow the difference from going too mainstream dentist is just so noticeable and also nice .
I was allowed too cry , I was allowed to ask when they were going to look in my mouth etc .
Anyway I have a small mouth and need some fillings ( Deep ones hopefully I’ll be okay having that done ?) and I also need this poorly tooth sorted but the way she discussed it all just made me feel more able too manage the mess off my teeth until I go back in October and sort out a treatment plan which I’m going too write down . She took a few notes like the fact I do not want local anaesthetic with adrenaline, I also need the wand and if I need sedation it needs further discussion, they were so nice and listened too everything.
Honestly I know it will take a while for everything too be done as I also need more dentures but I know I need all the treatment done first .
Good thing is no infection present, I will just take ibuprofen when I feel pain again and also keep up with salt washes like the dentist said just to help things .
All in all I believe this will be the best thing for me and how ever long it takes then that’s okay as I know that my needs and adjustments are valuable, I even thanks them for being kind and nice and they said please don’t that’s what we are here for .
I still can’t look in my mouth and I get flashbacks of when dentist have said things or attempted to do things and I can not go through that ever again .
