Myself I'am afraid of the Dentist because I don't know what they will find something wrong with my teeth. Anyone else afraid? :)
-
I am afraid of anybody that works with needles and sharp instruments and that includes Dentists, Doctors, and Indian cheifs.
-
No, I have no problem with the dentist. Of course, it's been a while since I've gone, but no issue with them other than the fact that they, like all medical professionals, try to get you to come more often than you need (more money in their pockets).
-
I'm not afraid of the actual dentist, just the expensive problems he or she will find in my mouth.
-
I just got three teeth filled and gonna go back in a week to get three more filled. I had not been to the dentist in a long time and had lots of cavities. They did a good job though and it didn't hurt at all. You have to take care of your teeth or you will lose them.
-
I am terified of Dentist, they have to give me gas to even clean my teeth. I had a bad experience when I was a teenager where a dentist drilled on my without any deadening. I have been scared of them ever since.

I am not afraid of the dentist I don't really like going to the dentist.. But when I was a child I was terrified of the dentist.. I remember one time I has an appointment and this was when they realized that I was allergic to morphine and laughing gas!! Anyways the dentist starting to give me the medication and instead of putting me to sleep and in a relax state of mind it did the opposite!! It instead mad me very angry and I ended up kicking the dentist in the knee cap! and started screaming!! I totally didn't remember anything of the sort but my dentist sure did! lol
-
Not afraid. I just hate going to see him.
-
I'm deathly afraid of dentists. As a child ( 4 or 5 ), I had a horrible expierence with a dentist. I was scared and started crying and he put his hand over my mouth and nose and yelled at me. I was terrified and I let my grandmother know what happened before we left. She refused to bring me back and told the other mothers who were waiting about what he did. All the other mothers quickly grabbed their children and walked out.
-
I've had a horrible fear ever since I was small. I force myself to go every six months, because I'm more afraid of what will happen if I don't take care of my teeth. Each time, it's an ordeal.
-
NOT AFRAID ,JUST DON'T LIKE GOING ,CLEANING YOUR TEETH HURTS
-
no just afraid of the bill have no dental insurance.
-
OMG.I have a phobia about going to the dentist. Everytime I work up the nerve to go I start dreaming that I go and everything in the dream go fine til I get home and began to loose teeth.Or either I dream that I go and they put me to sleep to extract a tooth and end up taking out like seven teeth by mistake. When I was little my mom took me to this dentist and he was big and mean. When he put the silver instrument in to click the teeth for cavities he was rough. I have went maybe two times since then and I had to force myself because my tooth was aching.Otherwise the thought of going gives me bad dreams.Probably gonna have bad dreams tonight about it!
-
not really...motivates me to take care of my teeth...plus, I'd rather them check them out then for something bad to happen!
-
I think it depends on your dentist. Mine is so gentle always asking me during a procedure if I'm ok and if I'm feeling any pain.
-
i guess no choice we have to keep our teeth clean or else were gonna have a problem
-
I actually love to go to the dentist, she is so sweet and tells me everything she is doing no surprises
-
I actually love to go to the dentist, she is so sweet and tells me everything she is doing no surprises
i like it like that.. some are just so rough on you... and kinda mean look i don't like to go back when people are not friendly
-
I've never had to spend very much time at the dentist's office, thankfully, but if it's about being afraid of pain, I don't believe anything could be as painful as giving birth to children without any drugs. That's just me. :)
-
well, most dentist know what's best for your teeth so I'm not afraid. Doctors, on the other hand do make me afraid :P
-
I'm not afraid to go to the dentist but I honestly can't remember the last time i've been ???
-
I used to be afraid of the dentist. but i get my cleanings regularrly. So im good.
-
no not really
-
I'm not afraid of the dentist. I'm afraid of the needles when they have to give you the novicane! Ugh its just awful. But i'm so scared of it I work myself up and have such bad anxiety before and then its over in a few seconds and I think I didnt sleeep for a week because of that??
-
I am one of the few people I know who actually look forward to going to the dentist. Why? Because they give me nitrous which is the best gas around. I would love to be like the dentist in Little Shop Of Horrors and carry a six pack of nitrous around on my back.
-
I won't say i'm afraid I just really don't like to go, sometimes they aren't careful and can hurt, and I hate making appointments for anything really.
-
I am very afraid of the dentist. I had a very abusive dentist one time. I passed out in his office from the whole ordeal. What a nightmare. I wish I would never have to see another dentist for the rest of my life.
-
No, I'm not afraid of the dentist, only the bill for the procedure.
-
Nope, but I've never had a cavity or anything major, didn't even get wisdom teeth.
-
I don't like the dentist, but I'd rather go there than lose my teeth.
-
no ours is great
-
i've never been to the dentist, but the mass opinion spread by everyone has me terrified :-[
-
Not afraid....DEATHLY AFRAID! Just hearing the noises of the drill sends horrifying chills up my spine!
(let me shake that one off...) LOL
-
I used to be terrified but since I've gotten older I'm more comfortable with it. Thank goodness I didn't get my brothers scaredness, he has to have anesthesia every time
-
No, I am not afraid of the Dentist.
-
No. Why?
-
I am super afraid of the dentists no matter how good they are.
Soon after I get in, I just wish I wasn't there and everything would be done soon.
But my terrible teeth always causes whole bunch of pain and it was never a good experience.
-
yeah.i went for wisdom teeth removal in last year and i scared a lot before doing that but idont feel much pain during the procedure and ikind of felt comfortable at that time
-
I use to be soooo afraid of the dentist then I learned to relax and use self hypnosis on myself.
-
I HATE going to the dentist. they always find a cavity or something else wrong.
-
:icon_rr: no not at all i always look forward to see and hear that my mouth/ teeth are in good shape! :wave:
-
What are you afraid of? Some of my friends have no teeth now...it is all part of aging!
-
no, the dentist is sweet!
-
I am afraid of BAD Dentists...........just the bad ones! :crybaby2:
-
i am not
-
Uh, the only thing that really bothers me is the shots at the beginning. Yuck! Sharp pain equals no bueno.
-
No, not really. I actually have to go the dentist soon, and I can't wait. It's been a while since I had a nice cleaning, and my teeth have been in a lot of pain lately (cavities?). My dentist can be a little rough sometimes, but when he starts hurting, I just let him know, and he takes it down a notch.
-
I am very afraid of the dentist. I had a bad experience with one dentist in this town, well, a couple bad experiences.
-
Nope
-
nope i see nothing to be afraid of really. never got why people are scared of the dentist or doctors.
-
Nope, but I'm afraid of needles. So if the dentist ever needed to use needles on me, then that would be a different story.
-
heck yeah, it's a terrible experience..i'd rather get a broken bone or something :crybaby2:
-
no i am not. but i'm afriad of the scraping part on my teeth.. hurts so much
-
No im not. I need to go have my last baby tooth pulled so my adult tooth can come down and straighten my teeth.
-
im not afraid of the dentist. i realize that i need to go twice a year and i just do it.
-
I am not afraid of the Dentist but I am afraid of the bill they send to me ;D
-
i am 24 years old and i am so afraid of the dentist! im not too sure why but i hate it! i will do anything to get out of going until there is a real problem!!!
-
I got used to it since I had gotten braces when I was younger. :)
