Unable to assert myself at 73...I have Severe Osteoporosis

Just addressing your dental fear, cleaning is super helpful to you mouth, and health in general, and only mildly uncomfortable for only a few moments in that hour. You can do this. And doing it once successfully will help you do it the next time. Maybe instead of shying away from discomfort, try thinking about the benefits of being there and getting needed care. Hugs and wishing you well.

@mlwh my biggest problem is as we say in Ireland my dentist as " a bit of a Pig " but on the positive side he is well informed about Prolia...its not pain I shy away from but I Panic and gag when he has his hand in my mouth..I just can't breathe..I have my extraction tomorrow at 3.30. but in order to keep what teeth I have I will be getting my cleaning done with a different Dentish whom I have experience with lovely gir..I am really friendly, respectful and a pleasant human being I look for the same in others but its sadly lacking..I gushed for 20 minutes about how bad my anxiety was but apparently he wasn't listening because he asked me to run downstairs and have an one hour cleaning done..I didn't...
But thats very helpful I have been suffering for months with this tooth and I will just reflect on the cessation of my pain...thank you.
Pray for me tomorrow 🙏 🙈
