    Gum disease & dentists..

    Im bricking it because ive got gum disease back again. I had it 3 yrs ago & the dentist gave me antibiotics & mouth wash & polished my teeth. But its back again, i can tell by the swollen gums & the distinctive taste again. Its disgusting. My teeth are superb but i always get a bit of the gum at the bottom thats the problem area. The dentist always says i need my teeth polished atleast every 6 months as opposed to most peoples once a year but its been near on 3 yrs now as my dentist moved to Scotland. Anyway, how do i get over the fear of the dentist. I know it wasnt horrendous when i last went but i have to find a new dentist now and im dreading going to someone new. Anyone else scared of dentists? Tell me its fine lol

    Hi Ceecee
    Well ive just found a dentist in my town which is a bonus. Got an appointment friday. Its a bloke [:O] God, im even more scared now. Women seem to be more gentle. I had to ring loads of dentists before finding that one, now im thinking its cuz they are so horrendous that no one goes there [?][:I]
    I hope i can do this :(
