Haven’t been to the dentist in 5 years, feeling very anxious
Hi everyone! I haven’t been to the dentist in about 5 years and I haven’t an appointment scheduled in a few days. Im currently 22 years old and I do brush and floss regularly. I’m terrified of what they’ll say to me. I know my teeth are in really bad shape ( I’m not in any pain though) and I’m scared they’ll shame me or recommend thousands of dollars worth of work that I can’t afford. What’s the likelihood of being told that I’ll need crazy amounts of work done?
