Ok, for the inquiring minds, mainly yours. Here's what happend...
When I was 5 years old I was at a dentist in Salem, had never had a problem going to one then, from the time of 3 all the way to 5, I'd go atleast 4 times a year for cleaning's and check ups. Use to love going to the dentist. But at 5, I was at a different dentist, not my normal one. He was happily cleaning away on my teeth, when a good amount of powder floraid had collected in my throat, not all the way down and not out of the way either. I couldn't swallow. I hadn't learned how to swallow with my mouth open yet, and was accustomed to the dentist periodically spraying water in my throat and sucking it out. my normal dentist did it almost every 3 or 4 minutes. Well this wasn't my normal dentist, and I started gagging a little bit. Terrified I was going to choke to death, I shouted as best I could that I needed water, quickly. I begged the dentist and he finally grabbed my wrist, really hard and nearly shouted at me, "I'm busy right now damnit, you can wait!!!" At which point I burst into tears and threw up all over him, the nurses, and myself..... From that point on, I couldn't get near a dentist.
To make matters worse, when I finally did go see one again, I was 17, I had many many many many cavities. I went to a gentle dentle, and it was mostly an ok experience.. HOWEVER. I inquired about my lovely wisdom teeth. The dentist said, oh ya about those. They are laying on their sides, they are impacted, they are going to cause you problems within the next six months. Want to get setup to take them out. I said no, I'd wait for now....... 2 months after I turned 23, my wisdom teeth on THE TOP ONLY became a problem..... 5 YEARS AFTERWARDS!!!! I have zero trust for dentists because of these two experiences.... And, I have a major phobia now because of it.......
So there ya go.... That's the reason for my phobia. And it's been getting worse every year, not better...

QUOTE(closeup @ Nov 16 2005, 10:41 PM) I used to be petrified of the dentist. When I was in the chair, I was so nervous the only thing touching the chair was my heels and the tips of my shoulder blades.And I was a kid who had alot of cavities. Too show you how much a person can change if they put there mind to it, consider this: Three years ago, I had a root canal done with no painkiller at all. The dentist convinced me that because the root was dead that I'd feel no pain. But the real difference was that I'd learned to meditate and at that point had been doing it for around five years. It made all the difference in the world. If you've ever had a root canal you'll know it's no walk in the park. I got to my appointment about an hour early and had time to relax and meditate before I started. Now I'm not nervous at all and don't really mind going. It's something to consider, the mind can overcome the fear of the pain as well as some of the pain itself. totally agree with you, and what you said about the only thing touching the chair was your heels and shoulder blades. Ya that's me. exactly.. And I've heard root canals are worse than extractions. But without novicane, yer crazy man,
