    Unless a person has a fear of the dentist they wont understand how you feel, I know how you feel as I have the same fear and I have an appointment for dentist on Monday and I reckon most of my top teeth have to be removed and I have one like you that will need to be cut to get it out. Only thing that helps me is knowing there is people out there in hospitals undergoing major surgery and they can cope with that so we should be ok with dentist, Good Luck

    As long as the doctor puts you under, you wouldn’t feel a thing.

    they use really good drugs be numb the pain

    all you would feel is a little push or pull nothing more

    I've had lots of dental work that would really scare you - I would fall asleep in the chair

    If you were the dentist, would you want someone screaming and crying and kicking and biting in pain or would you want your patient to be calm and relaxed?

    Honey, the dentist wants you comfortable just as much as you want to be comfortable. No one wants to work on someone who is freaking out.
