Survived this last visit. The procedure was way worse but instead of being anxious during the procedure, I was more upset with how much pressure the dentist was putting on my teeth and lips. I ended up with 3 sores/cuts on my lips. Now Im onto the healing. Advil around the clock, soft foods only, and ice packs for my cheek. Please pray that infection stays away- Im worried about one spot but it is too early to really tell since it has been less than 48 hours.

Oh I know why I have dental probkems and a phobia. That is not the issue- mine is more of a phobia and dealing with that phobia/working through what I need to get done for my own health.

Thank you!
Prayers for patience would be appreciated too - I've been hypersensitive about mouth stuff since I started all of these treatments by in March. Brushing, flossing, mouth washes, best techniques... I can go a bit overboard
It's been less than 48 hours and I'm already worried I'm not healing fast enough.
Swelling is down, although one spot is giving me trouble with pain and swelling. Thankfully I know that my dentist is closed over the weekend, but if I have any issues I can email them and then can help me out (they do offer 24 hour emergency care - so if I need a prescription for antibiotics I can get in touch with them).
Just need to have patience and to rest....

Your survived
Praise God 
Dental stuff always has some degree of discomfort (during/after).
I find that mentally you really need to disconnect and take deep breaths.
To focus ion it just makes me more anxious if I am feeling anything unpleasant (never pain...just UNPLEASANT).
I am scheduled for 3 weekly visits in June for Crown/filling repairs....so I feel for you (and me lol)
Take it slow, I am sure you are healing fineThank you!

With any major work there is always a spot here and there that can be sensitive for a bit longer than we'd like
Enjoy your new teeth (after you heal) ~ continued prayers for you going forward
