I forgot to mention, yesterday I checked my college pigeonhole, and I had in it a note from the dentists' asking me to make a check-up appointment. That means it was about 67 months since I last went - and six months since they told me I should have my next-to-front tooth filled. I was too scared to have it done then, and still haven't. I have had a lot of dental work done at one time or another, but I've never got over the 'needles in the mouth' thing, and drills are even worse. It doesn't help that I've only had back teeth done before, and I have a feeling that a front tooth will be worse. I guess I could ring up and explain that I'm an 'anxious patient' but I just don't want to go, at all, ever, no way, uh-uh, not nohow.

But I need to get this tooth sorted or it will get worse and then get really bad and then have to be pulled out or something. what should I do?
