My teeth are very sore and i know that i need to visit my doctor or dentist about them, however i am very scared of the doctor or dentist, what might?

Please call: Call your Dentist. Your Dentist will put you at ease, determine the causes of your chronic oral pain, and will (in a non judgement all way) help you achieve optimum oral health. Delay will only make treatment more extensive and more expensive. Working together you and your Dentist can, with great comfort, resolve your problems.

No worries: no worries, you are NOT alone, there are millions of people that have the same fear. The dentist is there to help you so please be honest with them so that they can actually help you with your questions and needs.

Options: Know that you have options to help with the anxiety. You may be able to have a valium and/or some Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas). Some dentist will have IV sedation so that you can essentially sleep through the procedures. Most important is that you go. Most likely it will only be a consultation at first...you need to make the first step. If you have any issues they will only get worse!

Sedation dentistry: might help change your mind. It is safe and comfortable modality for patients who have avoided the dentist out of fear. See a dentist ASAP.

Visit your dentist: And don't be scared. Modern dentistry is quite painless. Your sore teeth aren't going to get better on their own.
