Oh my goodness, why would a friend tell you that. Being nervous about a dental procedure is very common. I just recently had to have surgery on my tooth, somehow the root of the tooth grew clear around and threw the jaw bone, so they had to go clear to my jaw bone to remove the tooth. I talked to the dentist and told him I was very nervous and he gave me some medicine that calmed my nerves right down, so talk to yours, and they have many many ways to help you calm down, but the biggest thing to do is think positive, that is is all gonna be alright and breath.
