Visit you dentist: Call your local dentist and find out he or she caters to apprehensive patients. The longer you wait, the larger the cavity becomes to the point you may loose your tooth.

This in an easy one.: Agree with Dr. Zimmerman. The dentist is your friend. Because the treatments that he or she provide can help a cavity or other dental condition from getting worse. Take care.
