Hello Everyone, I just faced the dental phobia that kept me away for the dentist for over 10 years maybe a bit more. I had some residual roots removed from my lower right and will have to have two more eventually, upper right and left...that's a total of 5 when all is said and done. I take care of my teeth, but I had an eating disorder when I was younger and with MS, and not going to the dentist, I couldn't save them. My dentist says that my face isn't going to change any more than I look now since all I had left were roots of those teeth in the first place. Still, it's causing me anxiety. My husband is still in school to be a psychologist and he says it's causing me anxiety cause I am obsessed with the fear this is going to change my face. Yes, I am nervous about it. I still have to have two wisdom teeth removed when I can afford it, but that is later. I am almost 42 and just anxious about the extraction I had or the am going to have. since they are just roots right now.
Is my face going to change any more ? You can't see them, they are all back teeth and I still have good bone density and healthy gums.
Thank you
