Any advice on how to relax at the dentists?
3 Answers
Have to go soon with first to the hygienist /sadist and then to the dentist, any ideas on how to relax and how to distract your mind from all that is going on in your mouth! I think I have a low pain threshold and am just dreading it.

Failing that - Close your eye's and imagine you are on a desert island, Dolphins playing in the surf, tropical birds singing, lovely blue sky above - works for me every time.

Forget the hygienist - get yourself a Sonic toothbrush, dental floss and those little wooden sticks to clean in between teeth. Unless you have a problem with your gums, like bleeding or have neglected your teeth, then by all means keep on seeing the hygienist.
I find it a nightmare and a waste of money, only to be told 'your gums are in good health'.
