its very likely that your wisdom tooth will need removing, and only one filling after ten years not going to a dentist, wow thats good, you will be ok moy, your gums will be anestetic you wont feel pain, though later when it wears off you may feel some discomfort, after dentist take an easy lazy day , spoil yourself

I do sympathise Moy. Me too I hate dentist.
Last time I had really bad tooth problem I worked on it for about a week and finally got it out myself. That's how bad is my phobia, ever since I was 9 years old and had a bad experience.
It was gas in those days with a horrible smelly rubber mask
Everybody tells me that these days it's much different no pain at all.
I'm thinking of making an appointment to have a couple of wisdom teeth put in
Seriously my dear, I wish you good luck and bon voyage
i dunno Terpe i think i would cancel it or just tell the dentist to bugger offI do sympathise Moy. Me too I hate dentist.

i know moy, i dont think anyone looks forward to the dentist,
your fobia, is there someone can go with you, hold your hand so to speak,
your teeth are important to the health of your gums, and if you risk your gums you risk your overhall health, try look at the bigger picture and say cheese when you bite the dentists finger

You’re not alone Moy
It really is vital to remember that dentists are aware of phobias – they are highly trained and if they enjoyed inflicting pain they would be struck off the UK General Dental Register. Dentistry has also changed and is still evolving – conservation is the key to modern dentistry.
You should communicate your concerns to the dentist, and they in turn should fully explain their planned treatment. As with modern medicine, everything they do for you is evidence-based, meaning there is good reason for doing it. If you don’t understand and are not happy, there are set procedures to complain, and/or change dentists.
Modern dentistry involves better, more effective, local anaesthesia and drills. Equipment for all procedures is constantly improving. Please be re-assured – while no normal patient enjoys a visit to the dentist, avoiding going only leads to future problems. The worst scenario is to be forced to attend Casualty at your nearest hospital for emergency dental treatment.
thanks for the encouraging word Doc Alan
i will rem that
it just that im trying to overcome the said phobia but it seems i felt anxious even more
if they schedule you for extraction can you suggest instead to do a filling first before extraction

I had 2 wisdom teeth removed around 3 years agoi am goin to dentist tomorrow and just to think it right now ewwwww
so any nice encouragement though here about goin to dentist

removal is not painful at all and i hardly felt anything
Then 2 days later the pain started and it never stopped for a week
it needs to come out diba
Try having your gnashers yanked out when the anaesthetic doesn't kick in, like some clown did to me.
i know..the filling done on my tooth but until now it still achingTry having your gnashers yanked out when the anaesthetic doesn't kick in, like some clown did to me.

The thought of it is a lot worse that the actual thing. Once you had the injection it will be ok.
ask them to rub some anesthetic gel Ros, last time i went they rubbed some on the gum where they were going to insert the needle (near the front tooth
ill try next time joe..ask them to rub some anesthetic gel Ros, last time i went they rubbed some on the gum where they were going to insert the needle (near the front tooth

I think having mine taken out gives my face more personality.

I recently lost a crown that had been in place for 20 years , dentist told me the only solution is now an implant which cannot be done on NHS so that would cost £2000 , and I need three so for me its out of the question . Had two wisdom teeth out at the age of 35 , I was reassured by the dentist that I would be fully anethetised and they were true to there word , I did not feel a thing . My fear of dentists dates from childhood when invariably they did not give quite enough nitrous oxide , just enough that I could still feel the pain and see and hear what they were doing but unable to speak or move to tell them to stop , thankfully they dont seem to make this kind of mistake as often these days .
I have only ever had 2 fillings.
I had a spell when I never went to the dentist for over 10 years and when i did finally go, I was in and out in a jiffy, all ok. But, those 2 filling I did have were done when I was at primary school at age 10. It was the dreaded council digger dentist, who gave me no anesthetic and even with my trying to scream that he was hurting me carried on regardless.
I went for a checkup last year with a new 'young' dentist who decided to be over exuberant with the sharp pointy hook thing. He made my mouth bleed for a week with all his prodding, so I complained. The next time I went I reminded him of his antics from the previous year and he was very careful.
Anyway, I guess the moral of the story is to practice good oral health tactics. I know some problems just come during your mouth's lifetime, but minimising what you put in there helps.
If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up
