I do not like going to the dentist, not that many people do...I have gone twice in the last year and every time my dentist cannot do anything -- the anxiety just rises and I am almost on the verge of a panic attack....my dentist told me she would give me some relaxing medication (not sure what) and then she can clean my teeth....Don't worry Amanda, try talking to your dentist and explain how you feel...and he/she may be able to suggest something that will help you...Take care of yourself.
Best,

P.S. My fear of the dentist started when I was young as well -- really bad and painful incident in India!
Dear Sue, Thank-you for your reply. I have many other phobias as well. But feel foolish at my age.of 48.Thank-you for your advise and concern kind regards Amanda Harrison
hi, amanda. please dont think your a nutter because you have a fear of dentists, i dont much like them either. Everybody on this site have their own individual fears and phobias, and if dentists is yours then so be it.
