You already know the answer. You need to find a dentist you are comfortable with and begin the process of repairing your teeth and easing the pain. If you let this go too long, infection is liable to go throughout your system and make you very ill. Trust me, almost every dentist has seen teeth worse than yours, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about. I hope you make an appointment today... please don't wait.

It is easy to tell someone what to do, but are they the ones who will help pay for dental costs? If you can, go to a dental surgeon. You know your pocket and what you can or cannot afford. Everyone says save your teeth, no guarantee for any dental work including caps, root canals and implants.
Dentures are made more comfortable today and look natural. Many people are wearing them. . No more toothaches or costly dental procedures. If you have great insurance coverage good for you. Do what is best for you and listen to the dentist and tell him your feelings.

If you have dental insurance or can afford to pay you must go to the dentist.
I was the office manager at Dental Practice and believe me you have nothing to be embarrassed about. Dentist have seen the best and the worst of dental care.
If you do not get help it will only get worse...lots of pain and loss of teeth.
Good Luck

Dentistry has really made great advances in helping those with "challenging" mouth problems. Be very up front when finding a dentist, convey your fears so that the proper treatment can be established. It's ok, it may not be as bad as you think. Get a consultation.

You have to face the man on this one...get your booty to the dentist. It will be painful, expensive and well worth it to keep your teeth in the long run. And don't be embarrassed, your dentist is human too and will understand.
Good luck

the only thing to do is unfortunaly get over your fears of the dentist have have them help you. If you are having pain in the meantime you can take tylenol or advile to help ease the sharp sensations. YOu need to go to a dentist though or your teeth will just get worse, don't worry they are there to help you. Don 't be embarrases..if it is only an appeance issue go to luminers(commerical prob. saw) they are very good in corrective teeth surgery. Please Please though see a dentist nothing you can do can help you except going to a doctor who can take care of the problem.

Suck it up and go to the dentist. I promise you that a dentist will have seen worse teeth than you'll have. But that's about it. Go to a dentist, get stuff done right, or it'll just get worse.

Go to the dentist now! It is better you go now then later because the situation with your teeth will get worse if you do nothing.

I work for an oral surgeon and he has seen everything that has to do with rotten teeth. Don't be embarrassed! You will feel so much better once you have them fixed or removed. You probably have an infection which could lead to blood poisoning so you need to get this taken care of ASAP.
Good Luck!!!

Only one thing to do, see the dentist. Try this for motivation, who wants to kiss a yuck mouth? If you don't go, you will loose all your teeth.
