    I absolutely hate the dentist I had a really bad experience when I was young & it's put me off for life BUT not sure who it was I saw but he was so understanding very reassuring listened to my fears & put me at ease as my anxiety was through the roof .Having lots of things needing to be done including a cracked wisdom tooth. So I won't say I'm looking forward to my next appointment but I definitely won't be as nervous😌
