Re: School Dentist

I was never bothered by the dentist and have never had gas.

Ive got an op coming up to remove a wisdom tooth soon, dreading the pain after but at least i'll get a few days off work

Re: School Dentist

I used to be terrified of the dentist when i was little. I remember trying to run away once but getting caught, dragged back in and held down in the chair while he put the mask on me. Think i had some teeth out. These days im ok with dentists. But yeah that mask....uuuurrghhh!!!!!

And the dentist at my highschool, i hated her. She always treated you like a 5 year old. She'd say stuff like "now tell mummy this" or "Tell mummy that". So annoying.

Re: School Dentist

Had it as a 8yr old...put me off dentists for life....felt like I was suffocating.


Took me 30 years to go back to a dentist...broken tooth got infected and I was in AGONY so had no choice.


I was terrrified in the chair...had the needle...hardly felt it go in, then felt nothing as he removed the tooth. Couldn't believe how ok it all was.

Re: School Dentist

It used to really puzzle me how he managed to work in my mouth with that mask over my face , was a few years older before I realised it was taken off as soon as I conked out

Who remembers trips to the dentist only to be faced with the dreaded gas mask? The rubber smell was enough to make anyone sick.
I'd rather have gas than a needle any day though
