I went to the dentist today to see what can be done about my wisdom tooth (it has a hole and it's been hurting so I've been taking ibuprofen) the dentist offered to pull it out and he was very nice about it. I wanted tooth removal to be a last option, but unfortunately my tooth is bad enough that it has to be pulled. He understood my anxiety and got me to laugh. and the nurse was really kind too, she told me her experience with having her wisdom teeth removed and it made me feel a little less like I was crazy for panicking. I was on the cusp of falling into a panic attack and opted for an oral surgeon. The dentist gave me his two best recommendations that would be covered by my insurance. I'll be calling one tomorrow, because the other is closed through January 4 of next year. I feel slightly better knowing I won't be awake for my tooth removal but I'm still really really scared.
