I had been in an accident that left me with shattered front teeth. I was self-conscious about it. Before I could get them fixed, some jackass (a complete stranger) walked up to me and very coldly said, "Your teeth look sooooo stupid. Why do you walk around looking like that? You'd better get those teeth fixed RIGHT NOW because your f**ked-up face is making me want to puke." I was really embarrassed. Did he think that I didn't realize that my dental work was messed up? There are little things called "appointments" that you have to make with doctors to get things done, you know. I had to wait until the dental clinic could get me in for that large a repair job, because it was going to be a rather long ordeal. Anyway, that comment was the absolute last thing I needed to hear.

I doubt it but go and ask your dentist for advice.

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!

Sounds to me like a Doctor visit is definitely in your future, thats not normal, unless maybe you broke open a hemmoroid during a bm.... and you should still see your Doc to be on the safe side.

Go see a dentist!!  No one here is a dentist, or at least as I've seen from the responses to your question, and neither am I, but I can tell you that if you are having a problem related to tooth decay, IT WON'T GO AWAY BY WISHING IT AWAY!!! And the longer you wait the longer you'll suffer and the more work the dentist will have to do to fix the problem, and you'll get even more scared, and a bigger bill.  Another possibility here is that you're having sinusitis, or impacted sinuses, and that can hurt like hell and make it feel like your teeth are going to explode out of your mouth.  Go see some medical or dental professional.  This ain't gonna go away by hoping it does.  I know!!  What's that phrase: "Been there; Done that!!!!"  Get a  move on girl!!  You'll be glad you did!  God Bless you.

dental phobias happen sometimes for no reason at all. but often it will be because someone was rough or didn't explain what was happening to them when they were young. thank goodness it doesn't happen so much anymore but there are still terrified ppl out there.

Have you seen a doctor about it?

I felt like you do, and it turned out I had very severe Grave's disease. I went to several doctors who were unconcerned.\n\nThen (sorry) I went to the ER. The ER doc is the only one who took me seriously, actually examined me, did the tests necessary, and diagnosed me.

First of all, well done you for going!!! That's the first step in overcoming your fear. I totally understand where you're coming from, I'm scared of dentists too and hadn't been for 10 years, then was forced to go because of toothache. Like you, I found out I need a lot of work done, 9 fillings and all my wisdom teeth extracted because of decay. I found that out 2 months ago, and haven't done anything about it because I'm too scared. But now I'm starting to get problems with one of my teeth and it looks like I'm going to need a root canal.\n\nSo I understand your fear, but things WILL get worse if you leave them. Maybe consider sedation dentistry rather than GA? That's what I'm going to look into. Good luck.

Going to the dentist is a real downer, I'm terrified. I get scraped and tugged at and poked and apologies. The dentist shouldn't be so rough that they have to apologize about it ya know? I feel like they are going to rip my teeth out of my head. And the spit sucker thing, is really awful.

Find a really good dentist! I was so scared of the dentist before i didn't go to the dentist for 8 years till one day  i had a toochache so i went in and the dentist didn't even touch me and i was already cryng like a baby on chair lol. My dentist is so nice, he knows how to work with with dental phobia when i went back again he gave me some pills to relax that helped. I don't need to take them anymore, but still everytime i go i have butterflies at the stomach but the minute i sat at the chair i feel fine and lauch at my dentist who is joking around! So ask friends or family ro really good dentist, i am sure they know that's how i find mine! good luck

Lots of people are VERY frightened of the dentist. There are dentists who specialize in treating them. Some may even prescribe a little bit of a relaxing or calming drug to take before your visit. (Of course someone else would have to drive.) \n\nYour family doctor might know of one, or might even willing to prescribe that kind of drug for the visit. You could ask the dentist to do NOTHING\nbut look and talk the first time. (You're the boss.)\n\nAfter the first few visits, your level of fear will drop amazingly fast. Really! So do what it takes to get started, and I promise, it will get easier.
