How can I find a NHS dentist that will help me with my dental phobia?

Thursday, November 18th, 2010
Q.
I am 36 and not been to the dentist since i was 13 and had a bad experience over the last 16 years i have really needed to go but been in a controlling relationship and wasnt able to go even if i wanted to luckily he was sent to prison for 6 years just over a year ago now. Since then although i have a really bad phobia i have had to try and force myself to take my 2 kids to a dentist as my phobia and inability to go has caused them needing dental work.Although i have actually managed to walk through the door it is a very uncomfortable feeling and i can not be in the room when they have work done i am just glad my 2 teenagers are braver than me its them seeing if im ok on the way home instead of me being there for them . I need to try and get myself to a dentist but all the ones i come across have just made it even harder for me to see someone.They dont know my history so assume it is just a case of cant be bothered .I know i need all my teeth out as the ones that are left are stumps or rotten and after being basicaly locked in a house fo the last 10 years i also have problems with agrephobia where i find it difficult to actually walk out the house it doesnt make things any easier when i have visable rotten and missing teeth when i talk.I have tried emailing a few places in my local area but to be refered to anywhere that treats phobias and does this sort of work under sedation i am told i will need to be refered by a dentist..if i could find a dentist i was happy with and who understood my fears then i wouldnt be in this situation. I dont know if you work with nhs patients but if you do i would really appreciate some useful advice before i end up a total recluse.

Can you advise me on what to do next as I am a very nervous patient?

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have rotten teeth in my upper jaw and arranged an appointment for the first time in years to visit a dentist in Manchester. After the consultation I was given 3 options, 1) Remove all the rotten teeth and fit a denture. 2) fit a full mouth bridge that would be anchored to 1 tooth. 3) Implants. At the time I couldnt afford options 2 / 3, and was far to reluctant to get dentures as I’m only 30. I now have more money available for treatment, but the dentist wont see me again because I failed to turn-up for my second appointment (very bad, I know, but I felt I was being pushed into getting a treatment I didnt want). Could you advise me of what I should do next – I am still a very nervous patient and feel embarrased going to see a dentist who doesnt know my situation. Many Thanks,

What would the dentist do about my 2 rotten teeth?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have a fear of dentists and have not been to a dentist for nearly 20 years. I need to have a few fillings put in but the main problem is that i have two teeth at the back of my mouth that have rotten completely down to the gum? I think I have finally built the courage to go visit a dentist, but am still worried to what they would do to my two rotten teeth? Could you share some light regards.

What role did cotton wool have on my decaying tooth over a period of fifteen years?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
15yrs or so ago I had a dead nerve in my upper left 2 ….the dentist at the time recommended a crown. Whist my crown was being made i was fitted with a temporary crown. Recently this crown came loose so I went to my new dentist to have this re-glued. To my horror the tooth inside the crown was rotten and was beginning to rot my front tooth. I had been complaining to the dentist that there was a smell coming from the tooth. The dentist discovered that on what was lef of my tooth was a lot of cotton wool ….which appears to have been left from the temporary tooth back 15yrs ago. What I want to know is what role did this cotton wool have on my tooth decay (there was a lot of cotton wool) ?……or why would my tooth rot like this as I have great oral hygiene?,
