| - I hate the dentist. Plain and simple. For the last 4 years I literally had holes in my teeth that I could FEEL with my tongue, but I refused to go to the dentist because of my fear, anxiety, and straight up hatred for the dentist. Here's why:
I have always had issues with my teeth since I was little. "She must not brush her teeth" you may be thinking. False. I brush my teeth at least twice a day, floss once every other day (yes, this could use some work, but still better than probably 90% of the population) and use mouthwash every day. I take immaculate care of my mouth. Unfortunately, low enamel runs in my genetics, so no matter how hard I try I always have at least one cavity after leaving the dentist. But because of this, I have always felt extremely judged by the doctors I've gone to. They made me feel like my issues were my fault, and my anxiety from this actually grew into an all out phobia.
Until I found Dr. Bicky Tran. Literally I've never felt more comfortable at the dentist. After coming in with 4 years worth of tooth decay she worked with me to set me on a plan for my teeth. She was gentle with my cleaning, took my phobia seriously, and never EVER made me feel like my enamel problems were my fault.
I have my second annual cleaning next month, and I will never miss another one again. In fact, if I ever move away from Arizona I will come back every 6 months just to keep her as my dentist. 5 stars don't even do her justice.
