**TERRIFIED of the dentist**, pain, infections, swelling and total avoidance of the tooth part and root that had been left in by another local dentist, I finally, after being referred 3 times, plucked up the courage to go today to the Bhandal Dental Practice in Foleshill Road, I had backed out every time at the last minute after 2 years of avoiding having this broken tooth/root removed. I told them about how scared I was and they were so helpful, and so my appointment was with Mr Bhandal himself, from the minute I walked in, he was polite, calm and so reassuring! He was so gentle and talked me through the whole process even though my whole body was shaking, he was amazing, I walked in that room at 8am and literally by 8.16am I was walking out!! It wasn't a straight forward removal either, he had to cut the gum to get the root and remaining tooth out along with a stitch. So I honestly felt a tiny sting from the needle, then nothing, just a pushing sensation, but even that was gentle, he used a drill item as it was noisy, but again felt nothing, obviously I was terrified throughout, but, for those who are scared, I can honestly say, it was the BEST EVER dental experience I have ever been to, and tbh I have spent 35 years having to be sedated every time due to fear, so if I can do this, you can, it was simply amazing, I'm sitting here a few hours later and my mouth is now a little sore, but I'm sure it will heal quickly. So my advice is don't suffer for years like I did, just book Mr Bhandal and get sorted, he is amazing. Thank you.
