Title: Do you like going to the dentist?
Post by: melodylogan45 on April 16, 2015, 05:56:04 pm
Do you like going to the dentist or does it cause you anxiety? I know we have to go, but my nerves
are pretty bad while I am sitting in the dentist chair.

I hate going to the dentist but now I don't have to except when I need my dentures adjusted.  It was very painful to have  all my teeth removed but the everyday pain was worse so I am glad I got it done.

I don't like go to dentist. Every time I go, and every time they take x-ray which makes me gagging

I went to the dentist today for the 1st time in 3 years.  Laying backwards in that chair kills my back.

I don't mind going to the dentist, but I don't enjoy it either. My son absolutely loves going, his dentist is awesome.

Whilst going to the dentist cannot be compared with going to the day spa, I don't actually mind it. I get to watch tv, uninterrupted for 30 minutes and get my teeth cleaned, scraped and polished. I does hurt my gums for a little while after but it is a small price to pay for those gleaming white pearlies!

I haven't been to the dentist in God knows when. Thankfully my teeth is still in good condition though...and no I don't like going to the dentist or any doctors/medical office for that matter.

I don't think I know anyone who actually likes going to the dentist - myself included. I go out of necessity to have a better watch on my teeth/gums health. If I knew for certain I could completely manage my teeth/gum health, I wouldn't go then.

I do not mind going to the dentist.  I go every 6 months for my Annual exam and a semi-annual exam.

I get my teeth cleaned each visit.

It has been a long time since I have had a cavity so going to the dentist regularly  is no trouble to me at all.

I go to the dentist twice a year quite religiously. I don't mind going because I like talking with the hygienist there. Just hate it when I have cavities though or something worse like a root canal.

I'm going on the first to get some fillings done. And I don't really like going either. I don't like it when people look at me never mind my mouth lol. I also have to get 2 root canals and crowns which cost over 4k. I don't have the money for it either. They gave me this care credit paper to fill out so I can actually get it. Let's hope I get accepted for that other wise my teeth won't be getting fixed any time soon.

I go to the dentist every 6 months. Fortunately I have a dentist who is very gentle. If there is a problem he fits me in. Going to dentist is not something I love, but fortunately I have not had a negative experience so it is not something I detest either.

I don't like going to the Dentist but I know it's a necessary evil so I go faithfully.  Normally I don't have any anxiety when going to the Dentist it's just one of those things I would prefer not to do.   :)

Wow another ridiculous question ::) Even if you are not afraid to go to the dentist who wants to keep paying those high bills?  What is your next dumb question, Does anyone like getting punched in the mouth?
What do you think people are going to answer with the questions you ask?  So sad and pathetic, hey whatever it takes to fill that quota huh 8) :peace:

I don't like going, but it doesn't really bother me.  They are usually really good about getting me good and numb so there is no pain.  I've had way too many cavities in my life so maybe I am just used to it.

I don't think anybody likes going to the dentist! It's walking into a sterile room to have your teeth scraped and prodded. Yuck!

But dental health IS part of overall health and those appointments really do help, so we all need to do them. It's like getting blood drawn: Nobody actually enjoys it, but everyone begrudgingly does it for the sake of their health.

Nobody i know likes going to the dentist they always tell you that you don't floss enough and they use cold sharp objects in your mouth.

Just a suggestion for you. My dentist used to tell me that I didn't floss or didn't floss enough. However, no one ever told me that you take your floss firmly around the fingers of both your hands and make a "C" with the floss around each side of the tooth that you clean. It really makes a difference. Since I found that out, the dentist has not said I don't floss enough or not at all.
