Sedation should help, no? I hate the dentist, but maybe not with that intensity. I have funny nerves on one side (so I was told) and despite the novacain (sp?) get awful twinges during fillings and a root canal, so I'm always white-knuckling it during a procedure on that side (Hmmm... maybe this story isn't helping... ) Anyway, I usually just try to focus on my breathing in the chair, and think of how relieved I'll feel when it's over.
Good for you for finding a dentist though. That's on my To Do list right now.
