Whats wrong with me im scared about seeing dentist?

Common: This is very common- there are plenty of horror stories about dentist. Most of them are from older people or people that come in, in pain. The good news is that dentistry has come a very long way and is no longer painful like it was in the past due to new anesthetics, and new instruments. Dentists can also use sedation to calm you down like laughing gas, or valium.

Scared of Dentist: It is not uncommon to be scared of the dentist and or dental procedures. I recommend that you go to your dentist, and discuss your fears with them. What can help you be less scared is if you can talk about what scares you, and see what they can do to help ease you, or help relax your fears. Many times the dentist can prescribe a mild anti-anxiety medicine such as valium to see if that helps also.

Nothing is Wrong: We call people like you normal. Fear of the dentist is very common. Those who like the dentist are the weird ones! a blessing of modern dentistry is that this common fear is recognized, and several options are available to help you overcome it: hypnosis, laughing gas, oral and/or IV sedation, general anesthesia. Find a dentist whom you trust who provides one of more of these options. Good luck!
