dentaphobe!!!!!

Started by Lara3 pages

OOOoooooo!! all my teeth are messed up now and they all hurt. way more sensitive than they were before the dentist went near them. I have to drink every thing through a straw now and I can chew on that side either!!!

And ppl wonder why I dont like the dentist *shakes head*

Now that I think about it, wouldn't dentaphobe be fear of teeth?

do you have to get all technical?

Odontophobia- Fear of teeth or dental surgery.

Dentophobia - Fear of dentists.

Both are terms invented by the masses. Etemologically their meanings are in fact identical.

Where did you get that from?

I cant post it as it's classified as spamming however I did go to google and type in fear of teeth and it was the first result and its an entire listing of phobias. 😄

The list includes Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia as a real phobia. It seems the maker just grabbed stuff at random without researching his stuff.

Not classified as spamming. Spamming is where you advertise a website by posting the link a lot or at innapropiate times. This is an apropiate time to post said link.

unless the link is already on this site I dont bother. its easier that way

I gotta have two composite fillings what ever the hell fillings they are and a good clean. altogether its gonna cost.........

£270.00!!!!! yyyyyyeeeeeeoooooowwwwwwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiI!

I've got to have a root canal done later today and I'm a super wuss when it comes to the dentist.
Last time I had to have some work done, he hit a nerve in one of my teeth and I punched him for it 😖

any advice would be grateful as I'm dreading actually having it done AND the pain afterwards when the anasthetic wears off cry

I'm such a wimp!!!!!

just know it isnt going to last forever and the pain you are enduring is only going to strengthen you for the most unbearable pain that is most likely waiting for you later on in your life.

I really dont know what else to tell you. Every minute in a dentists' chair drags on for eternity for me. I dont mind the dentist or his procedures, but it is just awkward having your mouth opened in the center of a room while a man has his hands inside of it. I always feel like a pussy when i am in a dentists' chair. It is really hard to look and feel cool while at the dentist...,but at least you wont have to go through the unchallenged pain that comes from poorly kept teeth. So, you are doing the right thing 😉

WWWWOooo! That was deep. insightful. thanks

Just don't go to the dentist?

Man, I must be super lucky. I brush my teeth like a slacker, just real fast and often I skip and only do it once a day, and I've never had a cavity or anything.

Once, I didn't go to the dentist in 5 years. Then I went and was kinda freaked out cuz I thought my teeth would be royally screwed, but he just cleaned them and said they were fine.

Oh, and I have never flossed in my life.

Hey, do your teeth hurt now? I haven't been to the dentist in years, and it's sad because I am fully covered for it but I never use it. I'm afraid they are going to tell me I need a root canal, but my teeth don't actually hurt. Only when I chew on stuff like cookies or chocolate brownies, I can feel where I probably have cavities. Anyway, I need to go to a dentist.

😆 Seriously, I never floss either, but then again I have a couple of cavities, but in places where flossing wouldn't matter. I think I beat your five years, I haven't been at all after the year 2000, crap I think it might be like ten years. 😮
