If you really do floss everyday your teeth should be fine GOOD LUCK the dentist sucks!

That sounds like a cavity.  They will numb your tooth and you will hear the drill and feel the pressure, but its not that bad (wink).  Some dentist will put you to sleep if you request it.

I know its scary honey, but trust me - if you don't tell your mum and go to the dentist, the pain in your tooth will get really bad. I'd advise that you take a personal stereo with you and listen to some music while the dentist is doing your fillings because the noise of the drill is the scariest part in my opinion. Try not to worry too much about it, I know it's scary when you've never had fillings before and you don't know what to expect, but it's really not that bad, I promise.

You're right.  Find a different dentist!

I wouldn't because it might act poorly with the medication the dentist gives you.

I had a bad experience with a dentist...he couldn't freeze the infection and had to call in the receptionist to help hold me down while he drilled to the nerve and froze the nerve. ever since then i fear dentist and shake uncontrollaby when I have to go. Dentist suck...you can put a man on the moon and do heart transplants but dentistry is still painful..i don't get it.

by finding another dentist.  Slap him with the invisible hand.  \n\nreally, the guy's been to college for 8 years...he's not going to figure it out if he hasn't already.

Hi Lucy,\nI put off going to a dentist too because I was so scared. But when a tooth cracked I had to go, so I looked for a dentist who specialized in treating nervous patients like you and me. So I went, and guess what? It turned out to be not bad at all!\nI got to wear headphones and listen to really relaxing music. He also put cotton or a foam spongy thing to keep my mouth open and a tube that kept taking the saliva out. Then he put a numbing cream in my mouth. When he was sure it worked, he then very gently gave me some tiny shots of novocaine which didn't bother me at all. My eyes were closed, so I had to ask him if he really DID give me the shots!\nObviously he did, because when he repaired my tooth I didn't feel anything. He also kept explaining what he was doing or what I was going to hear next (drilling and grinding noises) but honestly, there was no pain. I was more worried that I would fall asleep, I was so relaxed! Afterwards, he just had me tap my teeth on a small piece of film a few times to make sure that the bite was ok (and drill a bit until it was perfect.)\nAnd that was it! \nSo please tell your mom but let her know how scared you are. And best of luck!

Hello! I'm an NHS dentist.\nOn a typical day  (8.30 to 6) I will treat/ see around 25 patients, sometimes more. Some will just be coming in for check up and a clean (15mins for adults, 5ish for a young child), others for fillings (about 25- 30mins for an appointment, although you can get several done in that time). I will probably see a couple of patients who need dentures made (10-15mins per apppointment) and maybe some more complicated procedures such as root canal (endodntics, 45mins per appointment) or crown/ bridge work (also 45mins for the drilling, maybe 15 to fit the work).\n\nMost patients are lovely, but the few problems we get concern either unrealistic expectations of the patients, or money. I guess we don't ever really see people at their best as most are worried about real or imagined pain/expense, but most of the time as long as the dentist explains, doesn't hurt and the fillings stay in, people are happy!\n\nHope this helps.

Your going through exactly what i am i am shamed terrified everything! My doctor put me on to an excellent dentist and he didnt yell he was so nice and freindly and did not say one bad thing about me. I need all mine pulled wisdom too apart from 7 lower front ones. I coudlnt make an app my mother had to, i even freaked out during the xray! My doctor gave me a mild quick sedative that lasts about an hour to calm nerves before they put me under, maybe talk to your local doctor. I have seen the dentist now i feel better but i am still scared and petrified! I can fill you in more about my history if we can contact via email, not sure but happy to tell you what i have done to combat my fear in the last week weeks if it helps you :) Gee my husband doesnt even know how bad my mouth is and i only opened up to my mum 5 weeks ago! Good luck i wish you well (i just have to get thru it first too

You need to cancel your appointment... That is way too much for your mouth.. You are not properly healed from your oral surgery. Give it 6 weeks before anymore trauma in your mouth. Plus your heart does not need anymore numbing pain medication going thru your system this soon....
