Can you please help me with this fear of the dentist? I feel silly as an adult walking upto someone and unloading on them! I havent been to the dentist for about 3 years and feel Like this is wrong. I know you see this a lot (haha I have been reading the expert answers for help!) the thing is I don’t know where to start anything I seem to turn my attention to I seem to not want to do if you get me. my dentist was a nice chap- just a dentist! so it’s not him. I don’t know i feel despairing about the whole situation

Hello Dear expert. I was wondering If you could help me out. I know somebody who asked advise on here that I know personally has really helped her. this has been the sole reason I am trying to tackle my fear now as I’ve seen it all but done. I was reminded that I had not had an appointment in over a year, this made me feel really bad- like i needed to amend it but I can’t?I don’t know why? I never had any bad experiences as a child I purely just cannot remember ever liking the dentist. is there anything I can do to get around this, its possibly anxiety but I don’t know? thanks
