Be strong, don't run away, when you hear the drill,💉💉🤣 

☘️🤞 

No drills til next time.. 🤣 I haven’t been in for 14 years and I have a cavity by my gum line on one of my front toofers. It’s affecting my smile and I’m a very smiley person. I’m so glad to have a plan in place and not to be losing any teeth. Just wanna smile again. If anyone else is scared like me just do it you’ll feel better. 😊 

Very well, we have to laugh, the next day 22 I am going to do a dental cleaning, I get stained from coffee and tobacco.☕🚬 

Thankful for no drills. 

Good for you!!! your very brave  

The necessary evil 🦷 Goodluck! 

Nice👍👍👍. I used to dread it too lol, but after a session or two already get use to it even the drilling part😅.  

Showing up is 1/2 the battle. Teeth care is so important! Good for you! Hope all went well. 

Bad teeth is a significant contributor to several heart issues 

The dentist doesn't scare me, it's the oral surgeon I am afraid of. I broke a wisdom tooth 3 years ago dentist said he couldn't fix it wanted me to go to oral surgeon and have it removed. I was too scared so I lived with the pain until the tooth died and most of it has broken off by now.  

Thanks everyone. 😊I feel exhausted but the hardest part is over with. Everyone there is as nice as you all are here. Nobody made judgy comments and they seemed very caring. Slowly putting myself back together. 🌈☀️ 

Ok, thank you for the encouragement, it's been more than 5 years for me going to the dentist so I will call tomorrow 

I'm going Weds...look at us..being all adult and stuff..lol💜💜 

Yes Diana 😂 😂 

I‘m going to the dentist Tue (tomorrow). I go twice a year!! 😁 

Sk I’m probably going to end up with five appointments next year between the work and cleaning. After this, twice a year might be a good plan. 👍 

Glad you got that over and done!:)
