A. Dear,
Many people have a phobia of the dentist. I recommend you make some enquires with dentists in your area to find who is particularly good with nervous patients. Most dentists have a lot of experience with nervous patients and will take their time with you in order to build your confidence.
Unfortunately your dental problems will not go away and if you dont not get them seen to, will only continue to worsen.
In regards to cost, an NHS dentist can help you acheive and maintain oral health (some patients are exempt from paymeny depending on their situation, other pay a small fee).
Kind regards
Dr Justin Glaister
