Sedation dentistry : Many dentists offer sedation to help you overcome your fears. Consult with your local dental society for a referral.

Break the cycle!: Usually anxiety keeps some patients away from a dentist until their dental issues become major problems requiring more invasive dental work. If all of your visits to a dentist begin with you in pain, not too much positive reinforcement there for you. My advice is to bite the bullet, explore sedation if necessary, get your oral health in order, than start fresh with regular maintenance visits.
