Nice one modes, and well done for going.

I joined dentist last week booked an appointment but chickened out and cancelled it! Think my gums are okay - a bit bleedy though x

Honestly I am the biggest wimp ever with going to the dentist , have to force myself to go for check ups . Think the trick is to get one that understands and stick with them. I have been seeing this one for about 20 years so knows how to manage my dental anxiety lol xx

Good news Modes👍🏼 The dentist must be high on the list of most people’s least favorite place to visit😄x

Aww, great. Well done you!!

This is the one trip that I am looking forward to since stopping (in a sick kind of way). I have really bad gums and I have to get a scale and polish every three months, which is so painful. I stopped smoking 2 days after my last appointment so I'm hoping that my dentist can tell the difference in that space of time as he was always on my back for smoking and was so encouraging to me when I told him I was starting on the patches. I do fear that my next scale will be the sorest one yet though.

Enjoy your free airflow polish

Strangely whilst my gums still felt tender and like you was concerned about them prodding around etc I had no problem at all . Just think when you get them scaled and cleaned they will stay that way as you won't be staining them with nicotine. I'm loving mine lol xx
