5 /5 E V: For someone with a phobia of needles and Dentists offices, getting dental work has been an extremely difficult process.
For the last almost 10 years since my braces were removed, my teeth unfortunately suffered due to neglect. There were lots of chips/cavities that progressed because they were not being taken care of and removed and my front two having the huge chips in the front since I broke them 15 years ago.
St Lawrence Dental helped me start the process to fixing my teeth last summer. They helped me start the procress to get my four impacted wisdom teeth removed and got me set up with an office that could put me under, preformed a root canal, multiple cleanings and now my upper front 6 teeth drilled/filled and redone. They helped put me onto a medication for my phobia and have been so incredibly patient with my anxiety. Walking me through the processes, always answering all of my questions, offering me suggestions to make the experience more comfortable (to wear comfy clothes and bring headphones), and even offering their hands during the scary parts. I am so incredibly grateful to have found an environment and team that helps me over come my phobias and I cant wait to continue this journey with them.
Ive struggled feeling insecure of my teeth/smile for as long as I can remember and for the first time I can say my smile makes me want to smile.
