AIBU to consider paying for sedation because of severe dental anxiety?

[TheOpalFox]

I’m petrified of the dentist and need work doing but I suffer too badly from dental anxiety and have been putting it off for yeahs .

Has anyone paid loads of money to be sedated? I can pay over a grand and be sedated to have work done? I know it’s expensive but im petrified! And I have heard sedation is good? So im willing to pay it if it helps?
Because everyday feel like my teeth are getting worse and worse 😞

My sedation was at a specialist practice. The appointment was 1.5 hours and the sedation part was £300.
That was for root canal surgery.

I was terrified of dentists until I went to a recommended dentist. Absolutely lovely professional dentist that puts you at your ease. Fear was almost gone after first visit. Have had a needle since too. He is based in Preston. Message me if you want the business details.
