Could really use some support right now..
Ever since I was young I’ve dealt with really high anxiety, going to school, flying on planes, and going to the dentist. I remember my parents trying to get me to go to the dentist and it was so bad that I would actually run out of the office and they had to chase me down the street. Now at age 32, I am ready to put my fear behind me and make a change. I am really tired of hiding my smile in every picture and being nervous about meeting new people and what they will think of my teeth. I feel like they are holding me back in my life.
I’ve researched online and found a dental clinic in my area which I feel is a great fit for me, but calling/emailing to make the appointment is super scary for me. I am not scared of pain or procedures, I am more just embarrassed of my teeth and what the dentist will think of me (I think my teeth will be the worst they have seen!) I am missing 3 back molars and can imagine I will need some fillings/root canals as well. Any support or experience you have in making this first appointment will help me so much!
