Hello

I always have had a terrible fear of dentists maybe because I had a few bad experiences which never helped but then I took advise and the dentist I now see I was totally honest about just how nervous and what all my problems were anxiety etc

I have not long since had to have a dental bridge , a lot of work was involved but with the help of my dentist I managed to get it done

There is nothing worse than toothache , usually when you have holes or broken teeth the pain will not go away without seeing a dentist , so yes you need to phone up , tell them when you phone how nervous you are and could they bear this in mind , you may find that they will be so much better than last time you went as sometimes it is the fear , what are heads have created that is so much worse than going & having the treatment

If you manage to go this time & you get some good treatment it will help build your confidence again & we have to start somewhere to do that

I no what you mean though about just as we feel things are getting better then something goes wrong and knocks us back but like someone said to me this is life & I think this is where we can struggle with anxiety when we get these knocks but the more we can face them & come through the other side it will make us stronger even though I know it is not as easy as said than done

Hope you make that appointment x

Hi Tigger, well I went to the dentist to be told quit bad nerve gum infection ,grear so got antibiotics took those my anxiety going g through the roof what of the infection spread so much, first day been pain free but just started with it again or is it anxiety I forgot nerve pain can be so bad arrrrrrrgh . Hope you are well big hugs binkynoo

Oh sounds painful , no wonder if you have an infection like that you have been in so much pain

Don't worry because no matter where the infection is now you have antibiotics it will clear it up & stop it spreading ...I have had infections before with my teeth and yes you just think it is getting better then you may have a few hours of pain again but it takes the full course of meds to clear it up so that is normal .......Hope you seeon feel better x
