Well considering it was a dentist who saved me and my dads life, when our last fishing boat sank Jo, I will not hear a bad word said about dentists.

When I used to go, I went regularly, didn't mind it at all, something to be said for relaxing in a nice chair even if a tad painful sometimes. Only given up going as I can't afford it

I am petrified of dentists, to the extent that I cannot go to see them when I am trying to sell them something.

Once had to deliver and install an item when there was no one else available and in an hour made six excuses to leave and was physically sick

Had some shitty work done over the years by NHS dentists, they always seemed to find stuff to do and balls it up! eventually I got insurance and went private, they sorted out the mess the other had made and I get a clean bill of health everytime I go now.

I don't get nervous at all, and the injection needles are so fine these days and the numbness is so localised that it's nothing at all

My dentist gives me Viagra during extractions. It doesn't numb the pain but it sure gives something to hang onto.

I went to the dentist last week and hate it, but was delighted to find that the new dentist to replace mine who left was a really attractive, foxy girl, dark hair, glasses, in her early thirties - honestly! When it came to the drill, I distracted myself by imagining her and the assistant (in her mid twenties), both treating me while dressed just in white lingerie, complete with stockings and suspenders - it worked a treat!! (Was I wrong?)

When I was little I loved going, when I had a filling I never had an injection til I was late teens which was weird to me.

But now I hate it. Got my check up tomorrow and got a chipped tooth and really not looking forward to it.

The dental nurses arent very nice and seem to enjoy making me gag last time she rammed the suction thing down the back of my mouth even the dentist jumped out the way cos he thought I was going to puke.

Hope tomorrow isnt too bad

I was butchered by a dentist when I was 15.....the treatment went on for weeks and got more brutal with each visit.

It was six years before I even set foot inside a dentist waiting room, as soon as I got throught the door I passed out!

It took me a long time to find a dentist that could make me feel calm, and I have satyed on his books for the last 12 years, and travel back to him for check ups etc regardless of where I have been living. I no longer black out in his surgery, I don't have the panic attacks, or the nausea, sweats etc.

My crown needs to be re done, but I have refused as it means undoing and then repeating the work that was done when I was 15. he has advised just a "touch up" is out of the question.

I now live a ridiculous distance from him - more than 14 hours on the boat and then an hours drive - and I have just chipped, and loosened, a filling I had done at the same time as my crown.

I have been having an awful time here as I know I must see a dentist, and myine is out of the question until the summer. All the old panics have come flooding back at the thought of having to see someone different. I have quite literally been terrified.

Irrational, I know, but there is nothing I can do to stop the panic.

Hull

I'd a couple of bad experiences as a child in the hands of a dentist, who mentally scarred me for life.

It took a dentist around 1985 to recognise that I suffered from acute dental phobia and he prescribed various relaxation techniques, although it usually ended up in me having to be prescribed Diazepam or similar before treatment.

Before moving South last November, my dentist in Hull knew that for even the simplest work, such as a filling, it had to be done under sedation. But he was the only dentist carrying out such work in East Yorkshire and this such work had to be planned months in advance and he charged accordingly.

At the New Year, I broke a back tooth; I took recommendations from colleagues about good local dentists in Slough, and researched them. I ended up making a call; got an appt the next day, and within a week, the tooth was removed, under sedation. The costs were far far less than in Hull, actually about 50% of what I would have paid in Hull, and the service was superb.

I need Root Canal work done soon; it will be done under sedation too, but I'm happier with this guy!

Actually, someone mentioned playing music through headphones. This was a good technique I learned through other dentists and studies show that "music kills pain!"

It's worked for me in the past; the only rule to remember is not to shake your head along to the beat of the music being played, 'cos it makes the Dentist's job a helluva lot difficult!

Something I have learnt over the years, especially when I move to a new area, is to ask my new GP which dentist in the area deals with nervous patients or those who have dental phobia across all levels?

The reason is that according to most GP's, even though they deal with all forms of medical matters, pain and distress every day, the one thing that they fear most is.... the dentist! The medical profession often make the worst patients!!!!

So, they tend to know who is good in dentistry.

Try it. Good luck.

Managed to make it to 30 with all my own teeth

I put it down to the fissure sealing I had done when I was a kid.

Had three teeth taken out in the last couple of years though

over 50 here and all own teeth. Dentist says if I continue this way I could keep em till I peg out.

I reckon Kentish apples instead o sweets may have something to do with it.

tell them you don't want the suction as it makes your teeth sensitive. they can manage without.
