I have bad teeth since puberty, I know what I need, but I'm very scared of the pain the procedure might involve, is there any recommendation that you can give to overcome the fear.

Thanks and keep smiling!

Went to the dentist yesterday, got a quote for $40k to fix my teeth... Or left with the option to rip literally all of them out. I'm 22 in a few days...

I feel like absolute dog shit, scared for the future, regret the past and can't afford my future.
