Does the dentist terrify anyone else??

All my life I’ve had cavities, so the trip to the dentist was always terrifying. I mean, someone drilling into your mouth? And that sound of the drill, and the smell… I have to go to the dentist tomorrow and im scared. But I know I always feel better once all my work is done.. but still. I will avoid the dentist for as long as possible, until my eating can’t take my cavity anymore. Oh and BTW, my bad dental luck is not from lack of care, I brush my teeth everyday and floss, I seem to have been born with “soft teeth” what one dentist has told me. And when I do get a cavity, it grows rapidly.

Is anyone else as scared of the dentist as I am? I know those lucky few who have never had a cavity in their life or just had one or two may not be so scared, but what about those who have had a lot of cavities? I swear I feel like fainting when I lay in that chair!

I rather have someone drilling in my mouth than in my azz. But anyway once they dead the nerve you want feel it anyway just hearing it or the pressure and that don’t hurt I had 4 teeth pulled at one time and it did’t hurt just my face was numb for awhile but other than that it’s fine and you always can sue if they hurt you Good Luck.
