Hi, maddy!
I think almost everyone on this forum thought before their first appointment that their teeth were going to be declared "the worst" that their dentist has EVER seen. As far as I remember, I don't think that has happened.
I also thought my teeth were the worst, since before 2008, I had not been to the dentist in 23 years. Oh, I brushed twice a day (didn't floss though, because I was worried I would hit a cavity and cause myself pain).
Then I went to the dreaded "first" appointment, (which, by the way, I cancelled 3 times before I actually went to it). I found out that my teeth really weren't as bad as I thought ( I thought every tooth was going to have to be extracted.......... 25 or 26 teeth!! ).
It was only 9 teeth to be extracted and 3 of those were wisdom teeth. A couple of minor cavities in addition to the 6 terribly decayed teeth that were going to be extracted. That was IT!!!!!
My dentist at the time complimented me on my home care.........I nearly fainted.......a compliment from a dentist!!!
So take heart from my story and know that you that you probably won't hear that your teeth are the worst!!
Good

as you go through your dental journey.
