Hi! I also have struggled with going to the dentist and taking care of my dental hygiene can be difficult as well. What I recommend the most is explaining to your dentist/hygienist your worries and fears. I’ve rarely had any hygienists/dentists that were mean and were very chill about my not-so-great dental hygiene. I’ve had to get deep cleanings because of my gingivitis and they’d be very chill about it like “no worries we can take care of this! you’ll be fine.” I’d also have my mom accompany me in the room. 



Thanks yeah I'd prolly have to explain that maybe I can take my bf with me cuz my fam sucks with this topic loll

Your fear isn’t dumb and it’s completely normal to feel that way 

I was afraid to go to the dentist too 

Some things that helped my anxiety was distracting myself

I would count to 100 or do the box breathing method 

I also recommend telling your dentist that you’re nervous about going to the dentist
