First Appointment Fear! Gulp! - Dental Health Message Board

Hi everyone, mystic venus, Gossgal, Soland, brwneyze and everyone who has been communicating with me! Well, this is it, the first appointment! It is 9.30am here in Ireland and my friend calls to pick me up at 9.45 for my appointment at 10:15. Needless to say, after having never been to a dentist in my life, I am petrified! I have windy pains and I am shaking with nerves. I have built up in my mind all the terrible things they are going to say. It is just a consultation but I have horrible, disgusting, crooked, discoloured, plaquefilled teeth so I know what the outcome will be! I am terrifed. Even though my teeth have made my life a misery, I am scared of having them out. Anyway, I best go and rinse myself with mouthwash and get ready now! Will log in later to see how everyone is getting on and fill you in on how it went! Gulp...............
A very terrified Chego. :-(

Hey Chego, I just woke up and according to your post it was 9 am there and the post says 4 am here so I guess its been a few hours now you should be home shortly. Hope you had a good visit. Please keep us up to date. It will be really interesting to see how dental care and whatnot in Ireland compares to here in the USA. Good Luck on your quest to a beautiful smile. Keep us updated. :-) Dena
