Attention all anxiety sufferers !!! Next Dentist visit be sure to get novacain WITHOUT epinephrine.
It's basically adrenalin in a needle, and Lord knows we don't need anymore of that.. Anyone had a really bad experience at a Dental visit? Posted on 11/18/07, 01:11 am |

A loooong time ago, like when I was... 10, I believe. I had to have a tooth pulled and they gave me a shot. Oh geez. I started screaming bloody murder. LOL Then around the age of 13, I had another tooth pulled and they didn't give me a shot but some numbing gel. The dentist had a tv in the office and he sort of used it as a distraction for some patients like myself who get anxious about visits. I was watching the Powerpuff Girls and all of a sudden, YANK! And I was all.. "HEY. wtf?! Oh.. you're done? Sweet." lol

i recently had to go just for a check up. since i have had anxiety and panic attacks i was REAL nervous - even though i have been to the dentist like millions of times before! Anyway, i had my check up and the dentist wanted to give my teeth a quick clean - i started freaking out! how silly does that sound!anyway she managed to clean them but i was a nervous wreck by the end of it. Turns out i need my wisdom teeth out at some point - oh no!! lol
