I’ve got a new dentist now. Someone I can trust, unlike my previous one. Wasn’t so hard getting one, though.
How to find a dentist
It made me 
"I logged into the insurance website and picked the only one covered."
How I did it: I called up the first time and the computer was being repaired so I had to call back again. Made an appointment for next Friday at 10am. I am afraid of going only slightly because I know I just have to do this while I still have my job and coverage because you just never know. Go me!!

I don't know why

I’m dragging my feet on this. I like my teeth. I don’t want them all to fall out.
I think I’m depressed because I really loved my old dentist. I went to him since I was a little girl, and he and his hygienists were so sweet and kind, and always told me my teeth looked great and were so gentle. I actually enjoyed going to the dentist, strange as it sounds.
However, this happiness surrounding my teeth came to an end when I got my job and became covered under different insurance. So now I need to find a new dentist. I have visions of any new foreign dentist as being a frightening man who, while emitting horrible, evil laughter, attacks me with his deadly arsenal of gleaming metal tools. I’m sure they can’t all be like that. And my previous dentist wasn’t the only kind one in the world. Sigh. I need to get moving on this.
Find a Dentist

Simple—but I finally did it. I’m totally freaked about the dentist, but I’m facing this head on and going to follow through with the next step: actually VISITING the dentist.
I think I found one

I think I found a dentist. I haven’t called or made an appointment, but she is close to my house and a Google search brought up a glowing review of her on someone’s blog.
it's a start!

Saw an ad for a place (a local dental school) looking for volunteers to get their teeth cleaned as part of the final exams for hygiene students. Possibly get paid $400! heck yes; my husband and I were there! Well, I haven’t been to the dentist in five years and he hasn’t been in 15, but our teeth were STILL too good to qualify! My god, those plaque-reducing toothpastes really work! The good thing is, though, this got us over the hurdle of just sitting in the chair again (not too painful, not too scary) so now we’re looking for a real dentist in earnest.

People with kids generally have a dentist. I just asked a few friends, and they all go to the same guy!
