Everyone, I'm so happy right now. Due to some botched and very painful procedures using inefficient local anaesthetic roughly fifteen years ago I have a crippling, and I mean CRIPPLING, fear of the dentist. Crying, shaking, hyperventilating, flinching, the works. (Quite funny actually, seeing how I was pretty invested in equine dentistry myself). I've always stayed on top of my dental hygiene to never have to experience something like that again, but one of those inlays from 15 years ago fell out and needed replacing, yuck.
I've found an awesome new dentist who works with phobic patients and just had the procedure done while undergoing a very uneventful general anesthesia. I'm fully awake now and feel so relieved and so proud (even though I chose the most wimp option available, lol).
I think this calls for rewarding myself with some nice vintage Coach. Maybe I'll even up the budget.
