[QUOTE="jannie, post: 42652, member: 2074"] My easy child was quite young but had/has issues with the dentist. They even decided they were going to "fix" this issue, by having several adults come into the office with a "restraint board"--thinking the threat of the board would be enough...obviously not understanding anxiety.... looks like a back board, but has fabric to wrap the child's arms and legs in....for some reason easy child thought it reminded him of a chrysalis [img]:wink:[/img] so it didn't totally freak him out...needless to say we found a new dentist. I would consider the sedation route..a good cleaning can take 30 minutes...I'd contact some new dentists and discuss this with him. Has he ever tried nitrous oxide (laughing gas)-- Sorry this is happening. I understand the stress--and easy child also needs fasting bloodwork as well...we were on our way to get the blood draw and he runs to the refrigerator and quickly stuffs food in his face... [img]:nonono:[/img]so he could avoid the blood test...it's still not done. [/QUOTE]
