So I have made a small victory. I have posted my story on here before but in a nutshell I was told I needed 14 teeth removed and partial dentures. I'm only 20 and after hearing that I refused to go anywhere near a dentist chair. However I gathered the courage to go to an oral surgeon and he told me I only needed 5 out plus my wisdom teeth. Best part is, he does it in a hospital under GA and medical covers it, not dental. He also referred me to a place that can do fillings and root canals under GA. (There's no way I can have work done any other way.) I'm on a 6 month wait list, and I'm not sure if I can go through with it but it's definitely a start. At least I finally made it back into an office. :)

Also, if anyone here is around Vancouver, BC area I would for sure recommend Dr. Bahi in Surrey.
