In three weeks, I’m getting two bottom teeth removed, and two top teeth. There’s nothing wrong with them, but it’s needed as I’ll have more space in my mouth. Therefore it’ll be easier to correct my underbite. It’ll be under local anaesthetic.

There’s a few things I’m anxious about:

- what if the anaesthetic makes my tongue and throat feel numb and I feel like I can’t breathe?
- what if the anaesthetic goes down my throat?
- what if I have a panic attack while the procedure is happening?
- what if I swallow or choke on a tooth or dental instrument?
- what if the suction isn’t strong enough?
-what if they put too much or too little numbing cream on?
- I’m also nervous about feeling the sensation of the needle going in my gum. 

I’m so scared. Does anyone have any tips or advice to calm me? Thank so much.
