You have my full sympathy. Unfortunately, I seem to have inherited the sub-par tooth condition from my dad. I have a ton of fillings (not lastly thanks to the fact that I stupidly neglected my brushing technique as a teen -- hindsight is 20/20, right?), got my first (and so far only) crown at the age of... uh... I don't know, 33 or something, and I've just had my second root canal last Friday. I have another appointment tomorrow afternoon to get the canal filled. Happy times. (Not.)
Luckily I have a good dentist who (I pray) knows what he's doing. I'm not actually loathing my dentist visits. Sure, it's never pleasant when someone pokes and drills around in your mouth, but at least I don't usually associate it with a painful experience. Fingers crossed that everything's gonna go smoothly for you!
