Are you afraid of dentists?

Nope, the only doctor related thing I'm scared of is an operating table.

Not afraid. But I dislike going there immensely.

Most of it is fine, except for that polishing spinner thing, and any kind of florine or teeth hardener. I have an annoyingly sensitive gag reflex, so that florine rinse always bothers me a hell of a lot.


I go because I know I need to. But that doesn't make me enjoy it.

Yes,

Some bad memory when a doctor (unconscious or not) drill my tongue when she suppose to drill my teeth ... damn that i hold my scream and my mouth bleeding for more than 2 days

I was traumatized on my first visit since all my friends told me all the food I ate would erupt from my gums when the dentist removes the tooth.

Not anymore. I'm just bored when I visit the dentist now.
[/h]

I am not afraid of dentists although it hurts a little bit when they are doing something in my mouth.

Not at all. I take good care of my teeth/gum.

No... I pay them to help my teeth, why the heck should I be afraid?
If they're a creep or have no license to practice, THAT's when I'd be afraid. :\

Not really. I only visited the dentist once so I can't really say I'm scared. And it was just to clean my teeth.

The only 2 things that i hate about them is the smell and the gut wrenching sound the drill makes, it drives me fucking crazy and makes me want to commit suicide...thats all.

I got traumatized by them as a kid, you can say I'm afraid...No, I'm scared shitless sometimes. That trauma still hunts me to this day, eventually I'll man up and head over to the dentist more often...

Had a filling a few years ago. Wasn't nearly as bad as I thought but I pray to the flying spaghetti monster I never need my wisdom teeth out. Overall I'm not afraid of dentists but am apprehensive about seeing them. (Did I just contradict myself?)

Only if it involves getting a tooth pulled out.

I will be afraid if he/she is smiling a sweetly, [b]While Holding Pliers! >.<

I... am not afraid of it at all actually. When i was 11 i had to get a root canal, and i absolutely loved it. which is kind of weird... i hate novacaine though. i have an immunity to laughing gas, so i HAVE to use novacaine, and it sucks in my opinion. I wish i was like my mother. She has an immunity to it. takes like ten times the normal ammount for her to feel it.

Oddly enough, I was fine with the dentist when I was really young. It wasnt until I was about 12-13 that I started fearing the dentist. I went into the "operating room" and she used this awful scraping machine (literally, it was a white robotic tooth scraping machine) on my molars. The machine then proceeded to stab a hole in my cheek while shooting lysterine into my mouth (and the new hole in my cheek). It was a horrible experience, and I still have a mark on my cheek to prove it.

No lol...because when i was back in the philippines...every time i go there for braces adjustment...my dentist always tells me to come on this day...and that day he'd let me join with a bunch of girls...lol...and he teases me lol...that bastard lol...He even puts me behind the "Chair" so i can see the cleavage of the girl...and i was like..."ill go on the other side..." lol...best dentist ever! lol

Edit: He even gives me the Cellphone number of the girls...lol...I dated one of them lol.

From your nightmares to mine...

Honestly I'm more afraid of orthodontists than I am dentists, the dentist has never been that big of a deal for me sure Novocaine and drilling sucks but that's rare for me anyway. Back when I had braces going t the Orthodontist sucked, it was uncomfortable and when they tightened the things down it hurt for a few days afterwards(not that bad the day of but after was a pain) it went away after a bit and it was no problem.

Real problem was that I had a baby tooth that didn't want to fall out so they had to actually cut into and remove a section of my gums and roof of my mouth because the adult tooth was growing in at a weird angle because the baby tooth wouldn't fall out. Had some plaster thing stuck in the hole in the roof of my mouth for a while after that before they removed it and hooked wire to the tooth to just straight up pull the fucker into place.

So in short Orthodontist fear> Dentist fear for me

I once had a dentist who would try to make conversation while numerous tools were in my mouth.

"What school do you go to?"

"MNNNNRRRRRGH."
