remember that the fear of something is always worse than the thing itself! i had 4 wisdom teeth out in one go & can honestly say it was not that bad.
are you going to be put asleep?

i dont think so they havent said anything about not eating before hand!

muppeteer

might be wise then to phone ahead & explain you are nervous & ask what to expect- once you are aware of what will happen your imagination can have a rest! they are used to people being nervous & are happy (& trained) to help. i think your really not supposed to smoke though so dont do that!
just remember that wether you are calm or stressed that time passes at the same rate. have a sit down & plan what you need like 1 hr getting ready, 30 min travel, 10 min parking & just focus on each thing you are doing.

it will be over before you know it. (if you have not already- get somone to pick you up afterwards as you wont feel like making your own way home)
you are not supposed to smoke after, but i went right off fags for about 2 weeks anyway so you might be same.
finally accept you may need some time off work & make the most of it! even though you will look like a hamster its great to slob on the couch with your duvet for a week being fed soup & milkshake!
if you are up to it later then let me know how you got on
good luck XXXX

Just have one cigarette and you'll smell like a stinking ashtray anyway.

Hey ...to take your mind off he dentist trip, think about how stressed you'll be when you have a cancerous lung removed ..that'll take your mind off it.

Just want to wish you all the best for later, froggo.

I managed to escape having mine out..as has already been said the fear is usually worse than the actual procedure ~ and fear can make pain worse, so please try to relax!
