Fear for dentistry

[janet]

I have got severe issues with my teeth and I am advised for a complete denture repair procedure by my dentist at Calgary( http://www.inhomedentures.ca/services/c ... -dentures/ ).But since childhood , I am very much scared of dentists and their treatments. Someone, please suggest me how I could overcome this fear and kindly share your inputs on how to achieve "no pain" during the treatment

I don't know if this exists in Canada, but in the States there's such a thing as sedation dentistry. Basically, they put you under light anesthesia while they work on you and (so they say) you don't feel a thing. Otherwise, you could try all the normal anxiety coping mechanisms like having a friend with you throughout the procedure and doing something that makes you feel safe and secure both before and after your appointment. If the actual dental work is painful, you ought to still be under anesthesia, though.
