Any dentists here?

I think I have a cracked tooth. I’ve managed to get an emergency appointment for tomorrow but I’m dreading it.

i HATE going to the dentist - which is why I haven’t been in YEARS and I’m mortified as my teeth are shocking. They’re yellowing, have a build up of tartar and probably need countless fillings. I already had an extraction years ago and I’m terrified of how judged I will be.

surely I can’t be the worst teeth they’ve seen!

My DH is a husband and I promise you, they definitely won’t be the worst teeth they’ve seen. A lot of people are in your situation and it absolutely doesn’t phase them.
Your dentist will have seen everything from pristine teeth to full on gob rot 😂 trust me, they will not bat an eye.

Good luck for tomorrow xx

I absolutely do not judge or care. I'M there to help with what you've come in with. Don't be deterred. X

Thank you

I am really hoping this will be the start of me fixing things and improving my dental health for good…

20 mins to go … not envy!! Boak!

How did it go OP? X

It was ok! Turns out I didn’t need treatment as I didn’t have a crack which I am pleased with. Really glad I went so I could stop worrying. I did expect they would give my whole mouth the once over but she said because it was an emergency appointment she could “only look at the tooth I’m concerned about” which surprised me. I can’t find a dentist taking on patients anywhere and now I’ve took that step of bravery I really want to have a regular appointment and have all teeth checked!
