The last time i visited the dentist i was younger and had multiple teeth very painfully removed. my parents never booked me another appointment. now at 20 i’m in desperate need of a hygienist appointment and also have had what feels like a bit of one of my molars fall off (painless and i didn’t notice until i happened to run my tongue over the tooth), so i’m guessing i have some decay. However i feel ive left it too long and i’m so scared of being judged by the dentists. NHS dentists aren’t accepting patients in my area so i’m gonna have to go private which will have to come out of my savings which is why it’s taken so long to get to this point. I just feel like they’re going to be as disgusted by my teeth as i am. any advice on how to push myself to book an appointment?
