I've not got a dentist as I was going to a dentist but I was given an appointment weekly and I suffer from Agoraphobia and It was too much to keep going. I've got to get some top dentures after loosing them to DV and then the dentures were thrown out by the violent ex partner who isn't alive anymore so that's not a problem but I've got a lot of issues with the few teeth left on my bottom line and the jaw has a lump on the both sides but it's now giving me a lot of pain and I don't have any pain relief as I don't want to be in a position where I'm relying on them but it's just that people presume it is due to being an addict and it's not been good for my Agoraphobia so I'm not going out anymore either . Please can you help with some advice and help with a dentist for the right treatment

    Hi @Nik70 and welcome to the community. You've been through so much, you must be incredibly strong 💛

    Some great advice from @Santosha12. You can locate an NHS dentist near you - Find a dentist - NHS. Hopefully you can find one nearby who's really nice and helps put you at ease.
