Mrs C....You wouldnt believe how many people are terribly phobic about the dentist..and a lot of them take a xanax or something before they go and that is fine to do..Some people even take it just to get their teeth cleaned...My advise to you is dont let you dental needs get away from you because it is very important as to avoid other procedures...I would definately give your primary a call and ask him so that you can avoid having to divulge it to your dentist...I know that you know that this is a very common thing and that everyone even people you would never dream of have this problem but for whatever reason you dont want to tell the dentist is your own..But the most important is for you to FEEL COMFORTABLE so that you can get through the visit..I know all to well how you feel..I had to go through a root canal a couple of weeks ago and I got through it but the anticipatory is the worst...I will say a special prayer for you and do call and find out the med info from your regular dr and avoid stressing about telling your dentist...Talk to you tomorrow ...take care...Your friend Mystic
