Dentist planning on doing an under the gum line deep clean too. 
I've googled it and now really anxious it sounds awful.

    Hi, It sounds horrendous but it actually isn't that bad. If it does hurt ask for an injection.
    Old enough to know better...........

    Just had my right side done plus impression for crown on that side. 
    The cleaning was no worse than regular cleaning 

    I do have problems with gagging which is horrendous when having an impression 

    Glad it's over for 2 weeks 
  • Hi, 
    Two months ago my father was facing the same problem and with a lot of pain. It was so painful that he was not even able to eat anything. Then the dentist gone through a surgery, after that only he was in relief.
