Haha, going tomorrow and I like going. Especially tomorrow as I’ve had toothache for a week, well only when I bite on that side so not too bad. Bet you get some interesting answers though 😜
I feared it for a long time (bad experience with a wisdom tooth extraction). Now that most of my teeth are store bought, and I have a very good Hygienist, it’s not so bad.
Fortunately, I will not have to see another dentist unless I forget where I put my high impact plastic teeth at the end of the evenin’ or possible episode of sensual frivolity (don’t ask). But, considering my age and past record of embarrassing misplacement … the percentage of forgetting once again gets compounded with each advancing year. g
I can definitely be a tough experience. My least fave is when they are trying to fix a tooth, saliva is accumulating in the back of my throat, there’s no suction and they ask me to hold still and keep my tongue out of the way. “I’m choking here!” lol
I feel bad answering this question truthfully because I have a close friend in dental school and I’m aware that dentists have feelings too, but if I’m going to be honest, I greatly dislike it.
Not my favorite thing to do, but I’m not petrified by it. I like our dentist though. She’s very relaxed and makes it a non-miserable experience.

I don’t mind spending money at the dentist. I believe I will appreciate the preventative maintenance when I’m 97 and still have my own teeth.

I am hoping to avoid losing teeth later in life by maintaining them properly now.

A very good idea, I didn’t and paid the price.
