Eva,
I am glad you were able to go through with it. Some are great when they know how much fear you have....glad that was what happened with you.
I don't know when I will ever get up the nerve to go to the dentist....or what I need is an awsome oral surgeon. I am having problems even getting myself out of my house for things I am not even that afraid of...let alone trying to do something like dealing with a dental appointment knowing that almost all my teeth need to be pulled.
I don't exactly know what happened because when I was young, my parents had a dentist that we went to yearly & he wasn't exactly horrible. They said at that time, the enamel on my teeth hadn't completely formed when my teeth were being formed. I had been very sick, high temperature & a lot of antibiotics. They said that was what messed up my teeth. When I was in high school, I had already had most of my molars filled & had to have a cap on one because it had chipped. That was over 35 years ago. Since then, all the fillings had chipped out & the teeth around them had also chipped....some down to the gum, leaving only the roots. There is so much to do & I would have to be completely knocked out. I am a bit nervous because I am on such a high dose of fentynal (a narcotic for my migraines) that I don't know how I would do if I was put out on top of having that much narcotic in my body. I can't afford to go off that either because the migraines are so horrible.
I am glad your had good luck with your new dentist
Debbie
