Hey Rose,
bring a MP3 player or a portable book reader and listen to a book while the
dentist does his thing. If you only have a Braillenote or that type of
device put it in a gallon zip lock bag.
Especially if you put a head phone in each ear, it makes the job a heck of a
lot easier.
I also told my dentist how much of a pain woose I was and how much I didn't
like the dentist he was really understanding.
Was reading about the history of Boston while he removed one of my teeth in
the back, and honestly didn't feel too much pain till the end of the
procedure, and in the mean time, didn't have to hear comments, the wir of
the drill or that cracking sounds when they got that forcepts in there. To
be honest, I almost fell asleep and had to stretch once I got up, so it
definitely worked and this is coming from someone who definitely wants to
run from the Dentist and the OBGYN, smile.
Worth trying, was suggested to me, the day of the appointment to have the
tooth out, and I am thinking of keeping up the habit when I go back to get
my cleaning in October, just so much nicer!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry I missed it, I had not read the book but I spent yesterday at the
dentist's office only good thing there is I did not need the root canal we
thought I would, not yet anyway. Hope you all had fun. I will be spending
Friday at the Dentist for a few more weeks, that is what I get for hating to
go so much that I just didn't, but this last week with an infection, loads
of pain, living on Vicodin and antibiotics tells me I have to conquer that
fear.
Pray that I can do it, I had times when I just want to jump and run, two
things kept me from it, the pain and the fact that I don't know the office
well enough to run!
