Reply:I'm sorry to hear that you have to go the denture route. But you are right you will feel better, not just physically but about your looks too. It is natural to be worried and nervous about any type of procedure. Just try to stay focused on the possitive and how good your smile is going to look after.





Good Luck!
Reply:Just focus on the end result which is a beautiful smile. They will give you meds to calm you down and likely make you groggy so your anxiety will go away during the procedure. Keep your eyes closed while they are working on you and try and think of happy things which will take your mind off what is happening. To get yourself to actually get into the chair as I said keep in mind how much better you will feel about your teeth afterwards.
Reply:Take a deep breath, there ya go, breath in, breath out. You are going to be fine, no need to be so upset, just remember that for a small bit of discomfort, you are going to come out with those pretty, white teeth. And you know that you have had pain with them up until now and after that one days pain on Wednesday, you will NEVER have another toothache.





Good luck, but I know you will be fine.
Reply:Good luck with your new white teeth.......false or real .


People's teeth are the first thing other people notice...especially if they are bad.
Reply:do you really have to have them pulled?


I mean,why dont you just get caps that cover the messed up teeth and make you look like you have perfect teeth instead?





and if you are going to get that done,I think you shold juat pay like 100 more or so and have them knock you out.....you go asleep,you wake up and theyre done....





i dont want to scare you but im going to be honest,i have had teeth pulled before and its not fun at all


its quite upsetting actually


and it can be very painful even with novecaine


its also very uncomfortable because when they pull them,it yanks on your head and jaw....


I cant believe theyre going to pull that many.........





there has to be a better option.......


you really want to have that many teeth pulled?


also when your teeth arent in,youre going to see what you look like and it will be quite disturbing....





However like you said,you will appear to have very pretty teeth after its done,so do what is best for you....


just be sure its what you want and its for the best.....





if you have the money for caps/crowns,i would definitely go that route instead.........having teeth pulled should always be the last resort......





another thing you could do,but its very costly is to have implants put in instead of using dentures....





good luck in whatever you decide


and you will get through whatever you chose to do


:O)
