What to expect from getting a tooth pulled or a cavity filled
I'm F 20 and I've never had a cavity until now. I've always had really good teeth when I was little so my parents never took me to a dentist or anything so I never went through "getting over the terrors of a dentist". Life got busy and with busy I replace things in my schedule to fit other things and I guess I forgot about brushing my teeth. It wasn't like a stopper brushing all together but it was definitely not the 2 times a day. I only noticed my cavity when I started getting pain. I think I have two in my back teeth and I know I have to go to get them treated but I'm terrified of doctors and now I'm noticing im really terrified of teeth doctors. I'm going to a place that deals with kids and adults so hopefully they are gentle. What should I suspect? Does it hurt to get a tooth pulled or a cavity filled? How do I deal with the pain after? Will I be able to eat at all? I'm just really nervous about this first visit
