The Dentist

Does anyone hate the dentist as much as me?

I've got to be there in an hour! It's only for a check up -
but I can't stand it! Dentist surgeries are scary places!
Will I see the light of day again???

*quaking in my shoes*

I also have a pretty bad fear of the Dentist...just the
sounds and the whole sitting with my mouth
open...Ehhhhgh....

I wish they would knock me out for just the checkups...=)

My fear of dentist started when I was about 10 - I had to go
to have a tooth pulled out. It was a small village dentist,
and they had to get someone in from the city hospital to
administer the anesthetic. My dentist was ill, and some
'supply-dentist' was gonna do the extraction. I didn't want
this strange dentist to do the job, and they strapped me
into the chair so I couldn't get up!!! They said it was so
that I didn't fall out!! Fall out - my ass, you can't fall
out of those chairs they have armrests!!!

Wish me luck - gotta go now!! Yikes!!!!!

never been to the dentist
and my teeth look very good
i am nervous though about my judgment teeth cos I know
sooner or later they will fuck me

judgment teeth? hmm thats odd, here in the states they call
them wisdom teeth. i think its the same thing, like when
the back teeth start growing in?

ive never had that.. but wouldnt mind because then the
doctor would give me vicodin!

ugly heads right now, I can run my tongue through my mouth

Dentist has never bothered me. Even that scrappy thing feels
like "good pain". I don't see what there is to be frightened
of.

Oh yeah, I have an intense fear of anything medical. When
the dentist work on my teeth, I'm sure they notice my heart
beating out of control, I am SO terrified. I'm always afraid
they'll find some lethal disease, and have to take out all
my teeth, and I'll have to eat baby mush for rest of my
toothless, miserable life!!!!

I HAVE SURVIVED!!!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!!

Actually I have to go back in three weeks for a replacement
filling, and then a week later for a small filling. I won't
be so concerned next time, because I know what to expect! I
just think the check up is the worst bit - fear of the
unknown! I just imagine that the dentist is gonna say
terrible things like 'you need all your teeth pulled out'

Anyway, I feel so much more relaxed now! I'll be able to
sleep tonight!! :-)

You weren't the one physically restrained at the dentist, by
being strapped to the chair, Ceri!!! I'm sure that most
dentists were butchers in a former life!!!

I had my wisdom teeth extracted last summer. It sucked. I
did get NO2 which nice, and the actual surgery wasn't bad at
all, but afterwards it was nothing but pain and bleeding for
two days.

I have a debilitating fear of anything medical... I haven't
got a routine check up at the doctor's in a LOOOOONG time...
and the dentist scares the shit out of me.

But I had braces for two years (shudder), so I got used to
having my mouth and teeth and gums and whatnot fucked around
with. Now I don't even worry about it!

You're right about dentists being butchers... they're so
VIOLENT in there... I'm amazed they don't jab my gums with
that hook thing, they're moving it so quick...

I got the dentist on friday.

My old dentist once pissed me off by ramming her fingers in
and putting loads of crap in there, i just barfed all over
her. Such a sadistic but fun thing that was.

i almost puked on a dental hygenist once. She was making
one of those molds for my retainer, when they inject that
goo into your mouth and make you hold it there for a few
minutes, and i gagged and almost threw up.

I have survived my first filling! I'm still numb at the
moment from being frozen up good! Actually it wasn't that
bad. The dentist was explaining everything as they carried
out the work, and really made me feel quite relaxed - which
is a first for me, let me assure you!

I don't have fear of the dentist, it's a mere annoyance.
I've got an appointment coming up next week.

After suffering the worst treatment imaginable(root canal
treatment a good few years back) at the dentist for roughly
1 and a 1/2 hours with an open mouth (rubber block inside
mouth firmly in place nearly dislocating my jaw,being unable
to properly swallow down the fluids that came pouring freely
down my throat), and needing vaseline for my lips because
they were bursting, I know 2 things:
1. Dustin Hoffman is a wuss (marathon man) and
2. that the next time he can just take out the damn tooth
and be done with it. Not in the least because it's a money
issue.
Thing is, I don't trust 'em anymore now that things have
changed for the worse in our healthcare system. I always get
the feeling he's the one producing them holes during the
check-up's or that he's just doing a half-assed job so his
"customer" will be sure to return for another expensive
treatment and he can keep on raking in the $dough$.

Don't you ever get the feeling that he's using that hook to
check your teeth with a little too firmly? Sometimes he's
really janking it and then he goes: "Oh, yes I see, you've
got one there!"
