Dentist
I'm petrified of the dentist and I have an appointment tomorrow. Im getting a tooth filled. Ive always been scared, but I always end up walking out saying that wasnt so bad. I realize that the only pain I will feel is the novacaine needle. Is there a way I can be less scared? I know the fear is worse than the actual procedure but Im still terrified.

I have had a lot of dental procedures done because of my teeth, and even though it might sound weird, concentrate on something like your favorite song or do a brain puzzle like this one-
Visualize all the rooms in your house. Now rearrange all the furniture in the house so each room is used differently.
It won't minimize the pain, but concentrating on something else always helps. Also try squeezing the arm the the dentists' chair or if you do what I do squeeze the assistant's hand. I really don't care what people think- it helps me get through it wondering how stupid people think I look. :-)
If you're getting a tooth filled, you will only get two Novacaine shots, and it really isn't bad afterwards AT ALL, so you'll be fine.
Good luck:-)

just calm yourself down and try not to think about it. mine was so easy i didnt even need novacaine and i didnt feel a thing. just think about how good you will feel after it is done. if worse comes to worse think about the best part when you are done u can't chew anything because you are numb and you can only eat ice cream and stuff like that!

First of all, figure out why the visit to the dentist scares you so much. Is it because you don't know what's going to happen? Ask your dentist when he makes the appointment to explain the procedure to you. You can also ask your parents what to expect or look it up online. Are you scared of the pain? Try a different option such as laughing gas. Do you simply not feel comfortable with your dentist? Try changing dentists. No one dentist is right for everyone.
Hope this helps. Good luck with your appointment.

I know exactly how you feel! I used to be petrified of the dentist too. But then one time i went to the dentist (( and i had to get my tooth filled too)) i just thought of my favorite song in my head and i started to sing it (( in my head of course )). That totally took my mind off of the pain. Just close your eyes an think of something or someone ;) that makes
you happy!Don't think about if it's going to hurt or not. Hope i Helped =)

Yeah i get the same why, I get myself so worked up over nothing. I have had a tooth filled and it was NOTHING. Really basically all they do is take this tool which is like one of those electric thooth brush and put it on your thooth, and even the novacaine is just a little pinch. When your waiting in the waiting room just read a magizine or watch tv to take your mind off of it, what I usually think is " whats the worst thta can happen", and thta makes me feel better becuase the dentist never does anything painfilll. If you can maybe bring in a head phoe adn listen to music while your waiting.
Hope I helped and if you have anymre question just leave one in my inbox, goodluck!

I have to get a tooth filled! It doesn't hurt at all just the shot! what they do is dry your teeth off really good and then on the tooth you are getting filled they put a glue like substance in and it dries almost instantly! Good Luck!

I'm always in the same situation. I have horrible teeth, and I'm always going in to get them pulled or whatever. Just tell yourself that what has to be done, has to be done. In thelong run, it'll be good for you. If that doesn't work, then find a large, squishy pillow and squeeze it really tight, that's how I get my anger out.
