I never had problems, but as I have gotten older small enclosed spaces and the dentist are not comfortable. I am tensing every muscle in my body. Even for cleanings!
next time i am having some one drive me and having a glass of wine before I don't care if it is at 8am.

I don't mind, you can tell your dentist you do have them. lol

Wine will make you bleed more. Just tell you dentist your having a hard time and it is very stressful and he will likely give you something to help you relax.

Diet and genetics plays a roll too. Avoid acidic foods and beverages, and wait 30 minutes after a meal before brushing your teeth. Chewing xylitol gum after each meal is a good idea too.

or you could just rip all those pesky teeth out and gum your food.

It would be great if all doctors tried to protect (rather than to expunge) their reputations.
Politicians too for that matter.
Okay, I'll get off my soap box.
