How to visit the dentist
How I did it: After looking at NHS dentists compared to private surgeries I decided the price difference wasn't great enough to wait on a list for treatment. I raided my savings account then I found a dentists surgery in town, went in and made an appointment for a consultation. I explained to him that I am in recovery from an eating disorder, and that wads why I had not see a dentist in 15 years. I was expecting a telling off but he was very kind and supportive. He gave me a full check up and an X-ray. I needed a trip to the hygienist and one filling which I got two weeks later.
Lessons & tips: Find a dentist that you are comfortable with. You are paying for this service so it's OK to be choosy.
