Hello All.
I have a really bad fear of dentists. So if anyone out there knows
some easy way to overcome my fears PALEESE let me know. My teeth are
very bad. Very. I have a lot of missing teeth in the back of my
mouth that basically just fell out because they were rotted. I have
a missing tooth right in the front. My teeth are discolored. For
years I would cry myself to sleep because of how bad my teeth are. I
have had many many toothaches in the past. And trust me, I would
rather give birth to elephants instead of having a toothache. I have
gotten a little braver though. The last dentist I saw was about a
year and a half ago, told me all the work that is required to get me
smiling like Vanna White. I would need all of them cleaned, gum
surgery, extractions, fillings, and implants. I am trying to
overcome the fear. Even those words scare me. I have not truly
smiled in years. I would love to wake up one morning and just smile
my ass off. So again, any suggestions or inspiring stories would be
truly helpful at this point.
Thanks,
Stacy
